Introduction. Magnetic separation is one of the most effective and widely used techniques for the purification and enrichment of materials. It plays a crucial role in mineral processing, recycling, and environmental appl...

Small-scale agricultural production systems are characterized by high diversity and complex interactions that challenge their long-term ecological sustainability. This study presents an early-stage methodological prototy...

Latin America exhibits one of the highest rates of biodiversity and ecosystem services (ES) loss worldwide along with a remarkable asymmetry in the access to ES benefits (ecosystem services inequality, ESI hereafter). Th...

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 ...

Tropical forests hold the most species yet face the greatest threats and knowledge gaps. To improve tropical biodiversity knowledge we combined satellite-based LiDAR with in situ bird, mammal, and acoustic soundscape dat...

IntroductionThe complex interplay between environmental dynamics, biodiversity loss, and public health necessitates advanced methodologies for quantifying and interpreting their interactions. Respiratory health, highly s...

Communities are central to social-ecological systems where environmental dynamics, development pressures, and human well-being intersect. Yet, infrastructure planning often overlooks this complexity, leading to unintende...

Octodontoidea is the most species-rich cladeamong hystricomorph rodents. Based on a combined parsimonyanalysis of morphological and molecular data of extinctand extant species, we analyze the history of SouthAmerican oct...

Abstract Over the past few decades, research on leadership competencies has expanded considerably, shaping both academic inquiries and organisational practice. However, its conceptualisation and application remain limite...

Microplastics in agricultural soils may act as sorptive agents for organic contaminants. This study investigated the effects of soil aging of linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) microplastics on the sorption and deso...

This is the first part of a special issue on the impact of Upper Pleistocene climatic and environmental change on hominin occupations and landscape use. In this part there are six contributions: Davies, W., and Nigst,...

Weed species present high competitive capacity, rapid adaptability and herbicide resistance, hindering their effective control across worldwide cropping regions. Since field-conducted experiments are very time-consuming ...

The tension between economic expansion and climate mitigation necessitates a deeper understanding of how finance, energy demand, and innovation jointly shape carbon emissions in emerging economies. In China, rapid financ...

Abstract Achieving sustainable economic growth in resource-dependent economies is vital to balancing competitiveness, attracting investment, and improving environmental performance. This study examines the asymmetric eff...

The environmental performance of vehicle electrification depends critically on the extent to which electric vehicles (EV) actually replace conventional vehicles (CV). Comparative life cycle assessment (LCA) studies typic...

Abstract Introduction Child suicidal behavior is related to specific childhood variations, constituting risk factors, including predisposing factors, internal factors, and environmental factors. Objective To characte...

This study analyzes the temporal synchronization and spillover impacts of China's green growth on African Regional Economic Communities (RECs) from 1996 to 2019, emphasizing emissions dynamics and environmental externali...

Abstract The purpose of this study is to provide a more comprehensive and updated analysis of how green finance enabled by financial technology (Fintech) and digital innovation, contributes to sustainability in economic ...

Background: A large part of physiotherapy clinical training is situated in the workplace. Learning in an authentic environment is supported by facilitators. Objectives: This study focussed on the perceptions and unders...

Abstract Background Microhabitat heterogeneity plays a crucial role in shaping plant water use strategies and ecophysiological processes in arid ecosystems, yet little is known about the coupled response of leaf water is...

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...

Forest cover change directly affects biodiversity, the global carbon budget, and ecosystem function. Within Latin American and the Caribbean region (LAC), many studies have documented extensive deforestation, but there a...

Building on the premise that macroeconomic variables – such as prices, agricultural income, and the real exchange rate – are associated with deforestation dynamics, this study investigates both the longrun relationsh...

En el presente artículo analizamos la manera en que diferentes grupos e instituciones en las Sierras Chicas de la provincia de Córdoba, Argentina, despliegan una serie de estrategias de planificación territorial para ...
