Abstract Objective The study aimed to evaluate the hypoxia-induced brain injury and neuroprotective effects of pyrimidine and its derivative, arylvinylpyrimidine (AVP), in the freshwater catfish, Heteropneustes fossilis....

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...

ABSTRACT Background Lead is a nonessential, toxic heavy metal that causes widespread environmental contamination, affecting humans, animals, plants, and ecosystems. Globally, an estimated 800 million children have blood ...

This comprehensive review examines the synergistic integration of climate mitigation strategies and circular economy (CE) principles as a pathway toward achieving global carbon neutrality. While traditional mitigation me...

Abstract Globally groundwater depletion threatens water security with aquifer storage declining at 300 km³/year. Climate change intensifies flood frequency and magnitude causing agricultural and other losses. Punjab, I...

While concerns about the environmental issue intensify, agricultural activities continue to be a significant source of greenhouse gas emissions. Among these activities, those related to livestock farming stands out. Cons...

Indonesia is highly vulnerable to earthquakes that can trigger soil liquefaction, particularly in coastal regions where saturated sandy soils with low relative densities are prevalent. This study investigated the influen...

Objective Children and young people (CYP) presenting in mental health crisis to acute paediatric settings represent a growing clinical and system-level challenge. These environments, primarily designed for physical healt...

Tsunami-like waves pose a serious threat to coastal infrastructure, necessitating effective mitigation measures to reduce inundation and associated damage. This study uses a numerical wave tank (NWT) to investigate the h...

Microalgae are promising platforms for CO2 mitigation. However, high CO2 exposure can impose physiological and environmental constraints, such as acidification and disruption of cellular homeostasis, which impair sensiti...

Nitrogen (N) is essential for global food production, yet its inefficient use leads to widespread environmental degradation and contributes significantly to climate change. This focus issue of Environmental Research Lett...

Abstract The growing deployment of grid-connected voltage source inverters (GC-VSIs) in the smart grids poses some significant issues that include harmonic distortion, grid impedance fluctuations, nonlinear loading, and ...

This study investigates two NOx-mitigation strategies, namely exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and water–diesel emulsification, in a diesel–hydrogen dual-fuel compression ignition engine. A validated three-dimensional...

Context and background  Rapid urbanization in Lagos metropolis, Nigeria, has led to significant changes in its urban climate, manifesting as Urban Heat Islands (UHIs). Goal and Objectives: This study assesses the...

Abstract Solar-powered electric-vehicle (EV) charging in tropical, PV-rich regions such as Uganda faces coupled stressors from high ambient temperature and intermittent solar irradiance, which can destabilize conventiona...

Abstract Background The use of biostimulants in agriculture has shown fabulous potential in combating climate change induced stresses such as drought. Improving agricultural productivity requires sustainable drought stre...

Abstract Lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide has emerged as a promising alternative to lithium hexafluorophosphate as conducting salt in battery electrolytes due to its favorable physicochemical properties. However, its ten...

Methane (CH4) generated during ruminal fermentation in ruminants is a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions and represents a substantial loss of dietary energy. Therefore, mitigating enteric CH4 emissions through...

The integration of circular economy (CE) practices with Industry 4.0 (I4.0) technologies in industrial sectors remains limited, primarily due to a lack of practical knowledge about key drivers, barriers, and mitigation s...
