Chattanooga has undergone a remarkable transformation from a heavily industrialized rail depot and one of the nation’s most polluted cities to the first designated National Park City in the United States of America...

Uttarakhand, Himalaya's a state, is having serious environmental problems that are mainly due to urbanization, infrastructure development, and climate change. The systematic review gathers together geospatial studies in ...

Abstract A strong association exists between land use land cover change and, Land Surface Temperature (LST). The study focuses on the assessment of vegetation cover, comprising forests and agricultural land, which are cr...

Background Strengthening emergency care systems could reduce death and disability in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), yet many struggle to provide timely, high-quality care. LMICs also face growing risks from cl...

Forest fires in the Amazon, particularly in protected areas, pose significant challenges related to CO _2 emissions and deforestation. This study aimed to evaluate fire foci and their driving factors in the Jamanxim Nati...

Culverts play a critical role in stormwater conveyance, roadway safety, and flood mitigation, particularly within low-lying urban communities vulnerable to extreme rainfall events. In Louisiana, increased rainfall intens...

Sacred groves (SGs) are community-protected forest patches dedicated to local deities, crucial for biodiversity conservation but threatened by habitat loss and weakening traditions. This study provides the first inventor...

In semi-arid environments there is often a lack of data on hydrological variables that limits the ability to understand key hydrological processes. In response to this need, geomorphometric analysis is a quantitative app...

Abstract Objectives To analyze spatiotemporal clustering patterns of severe hand foot and mouth disease (HFMD) in children aged ≤ 5 years, quantify the associations between meteorological factors and severe HFMD in...

Urban Green Infrastructure (UGI) provides multiple benefits, but these are being greatly eroded by urbanization and declining connectivity, which threaten biodiversity in urban centres. This study therefore investigated ...

This article presents an innovative technique for remote sensing-based mapping and predicting land degradation in the European frontier regions. The mapping is carried out by geospatial data fusion of relevant biophysica...

In recent decades, drug crop eradication and drug trafficking interdiction have pushed drug crop cultivation into new areas of the Amazonian rain forest. The presence of the drug industries in these regions—followed by...

Abstract This study evaluated the viability of organic farming in the Upper (UGR), Middle (MGR), and Lower Ganga Regions (LGR) by analysing soil health, nutrient availability, and heavy metal contamination. Using standar...

Abstract Background In Swaziland, as in many high HIV/TB burden settings, there is not information available regarding the household location of TB cases for identifying areas of increased TB incidence, limiting the deve...

This paper explores the application of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) in predictive modelling for seismic events and flood risks, with a particular focus on forecasting extreme quantile events that exceed historica...

Multimodal remote sensing image registration is a fundamental step for multisource data fusion and geospatial analysis. However, nonlinear radiometric, textural, and geometric discrepancies across modalities challenge in...

Abstract Large language models (LLMs) demonstrate strong reasoning and planning capabilities in static textual contexts, yet they struggle significantly with dynamic decision-making tasks involving spatial elements, such...

The WHO estimates that by 2050, 70% of the global population will reside in urban areas—centers of opportunity but also major health risks. Urbanization contributes to the rise of non-communicable chronic diseases, lin...

Abstract Potato crops in Bangladesh are significantly threatened by viral diseases, underscoring the need for comprehensive virome profiling to inform sustainable management strategies. In this study, we employed high-th...

Urbanization and climate change are rapidly transforming metropolitan environments, posing serious challenges to sustainable development, climate resilience, and disaster risk management, Among these challenges, concern,...

Decision Support Systems (DSS) are widely recognized as important tools supporting decision making processes, quite little adopted yet to support sustainable spatial and mobility planning, despite a wide range of literat...

ABSTRACT    Context and background Fit-for-Purpose Land Administration (FFP-LA) framework provides a pragmatic approach to enhancing tenure security, reducing disputes, and facilitating planned urban development in...
