The large-scale integrated hydrogen production model has become an important way to solve the problem of the “wind and solar curtailment” and promote the development of hydrogen energy industry. Whether it is pure wa...

Climate change is undermining the effectiveness of static reserve systems by shifting species distributions and increasing the opportunity costs of conservation, particularly for land and water under more frequent temper...

Reconciling urban expansion with ecological integrity is a key objective of the Kunming-Montréal Global Biodiversity Framework, particularly in fluvial and coastal cities. Their extensive river networks and urban wetlan...

Spatio-temporal evaluation of agricultural water use under both observed and future climate conditions is essential for identifying opportunities for water conservation and supporting sustainable farming practices. Howev...

This study investigates the feasibility and implications of implementing smart water supply systems as an integral component of the broader smart city initiative in Qazvin, Iran. As cities worldwide face growing challeng...

The impact of land use changes on watershed morphometry has shifted the delivery of ecosystem services from river-centric to aquifer-centric in the Ganga River Basin. We assessed the hydrosociology of 4830 dugwell develo...

Water build-up has continued to be one of the leading causes of performance variability and loss of durability in proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs), especially at the high current density and transient operati...

Abstract Watershed degradation driven by land-use change, climate variability, and rising water demand threatens water security and ecosystem services in underdeveloped countries like Nepal. Local participation is essent...

In recent decades, escalating climate change, continuous population growth, rapid urbanization, and extensive agricultural development have placed increasing pressure on global ecosystems. Particularly in China, intensiv...

Soil erosion is a major environmental concern that affects land productivity and water quality. Although soil erosion is a serious global environmental challenge, understanding its potential influence in the Bardha Water...

In 2012, a severe drought struck the southeastern of Brazil compromising the Paraná River Basin reservoirs. Here, we described how this climatic event promoted a massive mortality of the giant freshwater mussel Anodonti...

ABSTRACT This study aimed to assess the impact of various conservation methods on water uptake, nutritional, and microbiological content in intact or cut carcasses from broiler managed to Amazon environmental conditions....

ARTICLE HIGLIGHTS - First carbon mapping of Palsabangon watershed using InVEST model - Combines remote sensing and field data across four key vegetation types - Reveals mangroves store highest carbon per hectare among la...

Water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) are increasingly used for landscape management on rewetted peatlands, where monitoring their behavior and welfare remains challenging due to large, water−rich and difficult−to-access g...

Soil loss poses a serious threat to agricultural productivity and causes environmental degradation, particularly in Ethiopia. It depletes soil fertility, resulting in reduced crop productivity and accelerated sedimentati...

Global environmental degradation resulting from unsustainable human activities has become a critical development challenge in the 21st century. The Didessa watershed in southwestern Ethiopia, a region dominated by subsis...

In response to societal demands, the food industry constantly seeks innovations for its products. Active food packaging, developed from biopolymers incorporated with Pickering emulsions, is certainly one of these innovat...

Anthropogenic alteration of tropical and subtropical forests is a major driver of biodi-versity loss, with the Chaco forest, the largest dry forest in the Americas, among the most impacted regions. Sustainable forest man...

We analysed the main plant strategies to conserve nitrogen in the Patagonian Monte. We hypothesized that the two main plant functional groups (xerophytic evergreen shrubs and mesophytic perennial grasses) display differe...

Coupled carbon/climate models are predicting changes in Amazon carbon and water cycles for the near future, with conversion of forest into savanna-like vegetation. However, empirical data to support these models are stil...

Fish diversity is often challenging due to its labor-intensive and time-consuming, particularly when it comes to detecting rare and endemic fishes in fast-flowing waters. Environmental DNA metabarcoding has emerged as a ...
