Elucidating the mechanism of the correlation between urban spatial agglomeration processes and carbon emission levels can provide valuable scientific underpinnings for town planning under the constraints of low-carbon goals. This study investigates the characteristics of urban spatial agglomeration...
Climate change
As global climate change intensifies, with frequent extreme weather events, the stability of vegetation is severely threatened. This study (2002–2023) uses NDVI, temperature, and precipitation data, along with methods like pixel binary, trend analysis, and multiple regression residual analysis, to...
Air pollution and health
This study presents an innovative approach to air quality assessment by integrating low-cost sensor networks with line source modeling. The research focuses on monitoring air pollutants in urban environments, particularly along a busy highway corridor in Chennai, India. A portable sensor kit was...
Environmental management and policy
Wetlands are among the most important ecosystems in the world, owing to their ecosystem characteristics. Therefore, they offer rich biodiversity in the areas where they are located. However, despite all legal regulations, wetlands are at risk both globally and in Türkiye. This risk is mainly caused...
Water and wastewater treatment and reuse
The influence of land-use patterns on water quality in the Huaihe River Basin was analyzed using the Nemerow index, correlation and multiple linear regression analysis based on the measured data from 62 sampling sites in the Huaihe River Basin (China). In the point buffer zone, a significant...
Water and wastewater treatment and reuse
The Karun River, the longest and highest water flow river in Iran, has experienced heavy and trace metal pollution in recent years. While previous studies have evaluated the water quality of the river, not all sections from north to south have been examined for all metals. To address this gap, a...
Climate change
Investigating the spatiotemporal heterogeneity of livestock environmental efficiency and its decoupling effect is crucial for fostering the coordinated development of livestock economy and environmental sustainability. This study examines the spatiotemporal distribution, regional gaps, dynamic...
Sustainable Energy
Conventional electrical power systems often prioritize economic gain over environmental protection, which can lead to negative environmental consequences, such as emissions from thermal power plants. In recent years, there has been significant research and investment aimed at addressing the...
Water and wastewater treatment and reuse
In this work, untreated activated carbon (UDP-AC) and activated carbon chemically treated with H₂SO₄ (TDP-AC) were successfully synthesized from date pits, a solid waste material. Characterization was performed on both UDP-AC and TDP-AC, and both samples were used to adsorb methylene blue (MB) dye...
Environmental management and policy
Heavy metal pollution and salinity is a serious ecological concern posing threat to agriculture sustainability and global food security. Chromium (Cr) accumulation in arable lands is of serious concern due to its long term persistent in the soil and strong detrimental impacts on crop yield. Soil...
