Forest fragmentation poses a critical threat to ecosystem service functionality, particularly in rapidly urbanizing regions. This study investigates the spatio-temporal dynamics of forest fragmentation and its impacts on...

Abstract Background Road traffic deaths (RTDs) are a major global public health concern. Thailand reports the world’s highest fatality rate, at 32.2 deaths per 100,000 population. Despite safety initiatives, evidence o...

Abstract Background Thailand is undergoing a rapid demographic transition toward an aging society, with substantial challenges in ensuring health equity for older adults. While national-level health policies have expande...

The article highlights the problematic issues of developing strategic spatial planning documents in Ukraine using the example of territorial communities (Strategies for territorial development, Comprehensive spatial deve...

The integration of carbon mitigation objectives with urban resilience building, to develop synergistic pathways that combine climate change Adaptability and mitigation, has emerged as a critical focus in global sustainab...

Soil erosion is a major problem, which has had adverse effects on the productivity of agriculture, the quality of water, and the sustainability of land in the long term, especially in semi-arid states of southern India. ...

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...

In the present study we examined whether spatial indicators of neighborhood structure proxied by the social composition of the local population predict numeracy competencies of children in early childhood educational ins...

Abstract Finding a balance between economic growth and environmental protection is a significant challenge for contemporary cities. In the last 30 years, many large cities have started integrating sustainability concept...

Coastal environments are integral to metropolitan regions, operating as strategic civic and socio-economic interfaces that underpin tourism, everyday wellbeing, and local economies. Despite their significance, ensuring e...

This paper examines the relationship between transportation infrastructure and deforestation in Brazil. We combine exploratory spatial data analysis with standard econometric, spatial econometric, and machine learning us...

The article reveals the demographic-labor atrophy of Ukraine as an integral socio-economic phenomenon, which, under conditions of prolonged polycrisis (military actions, demographic depletion, labor market distortions, s...

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...

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is characterized by profound metabolic disturbances in the brain, yet how these alterations vary across brain regions and respond to neuroprotective intervention remains poorly understood. Here...

Abstract Ecotourism is increasingly recognized as a sustainable development strategy for environmentally sensitive mountain regions. However, its effectiveness depends on spatially informed planning and community accepta...

Abstract Potassium (K) deficiency has emerged as a critical constraint for sustainable apple production in highland regions, yet spatial variability of soil K status and site-specific fertilization responses remain poorl...
