In this study, we concentrate on modelling gross primary productivity using two simple approaches to simulate canopy photosynthesis: "big leaf" and "sun/shade" models. Two approaches for calibration are used: scaling up ...

The interest in aerosol contamination of aircraft passenger cabins has increased since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Mathematical models have been developed to help describe how an aerosol behaves in a closed space...

Abstract The article presents an interdisciplinary study examining the environmental and economic implications of introducing low-carbon fuels in coastal shipping. The main focus is on the comparison of alternative energ...

Third-generation biomass constitutes a renewable energy source that could substitute fossil fuels. This study evaluated the biomethane potential (BMP) of Ulva sp., Codium sp. and Undaria pinnatifida through anaerobic dig...

Land evaluation is an essential step in determining the potential use of marginal areas where agricultural productivity is limited by poor soil conditions. Coastal lands represent one of challenging environments, however...

Abstract Owing to the widespread usage of synthetic dyes, water contamination prompted by these materials has led to a severe menace on aquatic ecosystem and also on living organisms health. Chitosan modified with cyanog...

Products often operate in dynamic environments, and field failure data is frequently heavily censored, posing significant challenges in the assessment of product reliability. To enhance the accuracy of field reliability ...

Abstract In recent years, financial technology (FinTech), green finance (GF), and corporate social responsibility (CSR) have emerged as pivotal drivers of environmental sustainability within financial institutions. This ...

The Blyth’s Tragopan Tragopan blythii is a medium-sized pheasant endemic to the eastern Himalaya and is classified as ‘Vulnerable’. This species thrives in dense forest ecosystems at higher altitudes. Species distr...

This study aims to examine the interplay of corporate sustainability orientation and sustainability practices, namely social and environmental dimensions and their impact on the financial performance of Small and Medium-...

Abstract This study analyses how citizens’ perceptions, behaviours, and socio-economic characteristics shape awareness of energy-transition and climate-change issues across Algeria’s main climatic zones. A mixed-meth...

A remnant population ofAnadenanthera colubrinavar.cebilin Northern Argentina showed a mixed mating system, high genetic diversity, and moderate spatial genetic structure, which was stronger in saplings than in adults. De...

The prediction of suspended sediment concentration (SSC) is of critical importance for the management of aquatic ecosystems, flood control, and erosion assessments. However, the continuous measurement of SSC is technical...

Hydro-climatic extremes are intensifying across India, underscoring the need for fine-resolution socioeconomic vulnerability (SEV) assessments that can guide adaptation and disaster risk reduction (DRR). Most existing SE...

The current study will deal with the problem of natural resource degradation, presenting a new, multifaceted approach to the measurement of watershed health. This idea determines the capacity of a watershed to be structu...

Abstract Microplastic pollution in freshwater is a global concern, yet field monitoring often lacks standardization, hindering data comparability and analysis. This systematic review bridges the gap between lab findings ...

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...

Plants are sophisticated and intelligent natural construction materials. They can be used for enhancing the stability of shallow soil slopes and minimizing surface erosion. It is evident that the use of plants can be low...

Thiamethoxam (TMX) is a systemic pesticide that safeguards both perennial and annual crops from pests but presents environmental risks. Effective pesticide regulation requires a thorough understanding of farmers’ behav...

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...

The recent trends in the field of Robotics have evolved a lot irrespective of its application across any field. That too when wall climbing robots are considered, many researchers have come up with many innovative design...

Anaerobic co-digestion of livestock waste presents a viable approach for addressing environmental challenges and reducing greenhouse gas emissions in semi-urban and rural contexts. This study focuses on the development o...

Abstract Soils are the primary environmental reservoir of plant pathogens impacting food production and ecosystem productivity worldwide. Yet, some soils can also suppress pathogens through environmental and microbial re...
