Coral reefs are among the most diverse and productive ecosystems on the planet, providing goods and services to millions of people. Yet, they are threatened by a combination of natural and anthropogenic disturbances, whi...

Environmental sustainability transitions require robust indicator-based evidence to evaluate how technological, financial, and governance factors shape progress toward carbon neutrality. However, the environmental sustai...

Hydrocarbon pollution from oil spills, traffic emissions, and industrial processes continues to be a significant global threat to biodiversity, soil quality, water quality, and human health. Lichens, mutualistic life for...

Coastal ecosystems such as mangroves, seagrasses, and coral reefs are highly sensitive to shoreline instability and rapid land-use changes in industrializing regions. Nayband Gulf, located adjacent to the Pars Special Ec...

In a time where sustainability is paramount, evaluating and optimizing energy retrofit projects in historic buildings is essential. This study introduces Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) as part of a new Life Cycle Asse...

The present study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of recreational citizen science in biodiversity monitoring. The goal was to evaluate whether a minimal training protocol can maintain data quality while engaging l...

Introduction and Aims: Mandibular movement is a complex physiological process essential for orofacial function. Patients with disc displacement without reduction (DDWoR) exhibit significant kinematic impairments, which a...

Many developing countries have experienced rapid industrial and urban expansion over the last two decades, raising concerns about ecological degradation. However, quantitative assessments linking urbanization and ecologi...

The increasing prevalence of artificial light sources has rendered blue light (BL) a novel environmental metabolic disruptor. This study aimed to investigate the potential effects of BL exposure on mitochondrial function...

Methane emissions and chemical pollutants often co-occur in natural and engineered environments, contributing to ecosystem degradation. Microorganisms play key roles in regulating these processes through methane oxidatio...

Rice production is a major contributor to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Reducing GHG emissions in this sector is essential for achieving the climate targets. However, little is known about the effectiveness of monetary...

Land degradation (LD) is a major barrier toward achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), due to challenges in national assessments. A comprehensive spatiotemporal anal...

Human–wildlife relations in alpine ecosystems reflect the combined effects of climate change, land-use transitions, and governance capacity. Rather than focusing solely on local conflict dynamics, this study investigat...

Soil is a living, finite resource that shapes chemical fate, microbial ecology, nutrient supply, and climate regulation, yet environmental science and policy often treat it as an inert substrate. Approximately one-third ...

Shoreline resources constitute one of the most critical terrestrial elements, as they play a pivotal role in fluvial-lacustrine monitoring and the sustainable utilization of spatial resources. As the longest and most eco...

Food waste (FW) in collective catering settings remains a critical barrier to sustainable food systems, due to its magnitude and multidimensional negative impacts. Food waste reduction and prevention measures are often d...

Monitoring and managing greenhouse gas emissions in each country is essential to achieving the targets of the UNFCCC framework. Thailand has reported GHG emissions but lacks high resolution spatial emission data, which i...

Acoustic indices provide a statistical method to quantify and assess relationships between soundscapes and avian diversity; however, more testing is necessary before acoustic indices are accepted as suitable proxies for ...

Sulfur dioxide (SO2) is a major atmospheric pollutant in China, and understanding its spatiotemporal dynamics is essential for effective air quality management. Using hourly SO2 data from more than 2000 urban monitoring ...

Urban microclimate are localized climatic conditions within urban areas that are shaped by the buildings, population density, land cover, and vegetation, and that differ significantly from surrounding rural contexts. The...

Sustainable agriculture is widely promoted as a cornerstone of climate change mitigation, yet the extent to which this research domain explicitly engages with carbon-neutrality and net-zero objectives remains unclear. Th...

Fish diversity is often challenging due to its labor-intensive and time-consuming, particularly when it comes to detecting rare and endemic fishes in fast-flowing waters. Environmental DNA metabarcoding has emerged as a ...
