Variation Characteristics of Annual Baseflow at Different Frequencies in Upper Yangtze River Using a Digital Filtering Method

[Objective] Addressing critical gaps in understanding the Upper Yangtze River Basin (UYRB) baseflow dynamics is essential for regional water security and ecological sustainability. This study presents the first comprehensive multi-station a...

Modeling Rare Species Distribution at the Edge: The Case for the Vulnerable Endemic Pyrenean Desman in France

The endemic Pyrenean Desman (Galemys pyrenaicus) is an elusive, rare, and vulnerable species declining over its entire and narrow range (Spain, Portugal, France, and Andorra). The principal set of conservation measures in France is a 5-year...

Carbon dioxide uptake in a eutrophic stratified reservoir: Freshwater carbon sequestration potential

Carbon capture and storage due to photosynthesis activities has been proposed as a carbon sink to mitigate climate change. To enhance such mitigation, previous studies have shown that freshwater lakes should be included in the carbon sink, ...

Non-state actor perceptions of legitimacy and meaningful participation in international climate governance

Abstract There is a lively debate about the legitimacy of the international climate regime, as represented by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, and the quality of non-state actor participation in the regime. This co...

Uncertainties in the effects of organic aerosol coatings on polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon concentrations and their estimated health effects

We used the CAM5 model to examine how different particle-bound polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) degradation approaches affect the spatial distribution of benzo(a)pyrene (BaP). Three approaches were evaluated: NOA (no effect of OA coati...

Research on a Comprehensive Performance Analysis Method for Building-Integrated Photovoltaics Considering Global Climate Change

Building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPVs) represent a pivotal technology for enhancing the utilization of renewable energy in buildings. However, challenges persist, including the lack of integrated design models, limited analytical dimensi...

The impact of globalization and climate change on Trichinella spp. epidemiology

The main reservoir hosts of nematodes of the genus Trichinella are wild carnivores, although most human infections are caused by the consumption of pork. This group of zoonotic parasites completes the entire natural life cycle within the ho...

Efficacious role of silica nanoparticles in improving growth and yield of wheat under drought stress through stress-gene upregulation

Climate change is now evident and severe water shortage due to unpredictable raining season along with extended summers is expected to hamper crop production across the globe. Application of nanoparticle based formulations is one of the mos...

Urdu poetry and Eco Criticism

 Eco-criticism is relatively considered a new term in Urdu literature although a brief review of Urdu literature particularly poetry indicates that environmental problems have always been critically observed by the literary minds. Eco...

Mapping inequities in global vaccine sentiment research

Introduction Negative public sentiment towards vaccination (PSV) poses significant challenges to the effectiveness of immunisation programmes, with dramatic effects on morbidity and mortality for vaccine-preventable diseases. Yet, health re...

Digital footprints as a tool to evaluate the spatiotemporal environmental impacts of grocery shopping across Great Britain

Introduction & Background Climate change represents one of the most pressing challenges of our time. Within this context, the food sector is a critical domain for intervention, accounting for approximately one-third of global greenhouse gas...
