Background. The concept of ecosystem services (ES) is closely related to the concept of biodiversity conservation. Urban green spaces (UGS) are areas of importance for urban biodiversity conservation. UGSs can effectively provide biodiversity services if they form an ecological network. The issue of assessing ecosystem services for biodiversity conservation in cities, where the assessment of ES is based on the "ecological network" approach, is currently not sufficiently covered.

Abstract Corrosion generally has an irregular form which influences the quality of an ultrasonic (UT) inspection; both due to the irregular form itself and because it affects the ability to clean the pipeline prior to inspection. The common practice is to produce a feature list reporting the deepest point of a metal loss defect and the associated defect length, up to a joint length for channeling corrosion. This normally gives very conservative estimations of pressure resistance. If corrosion rates are estimated by feature lists from consecutive inspections, it may give misleading rates due to

Abstract:
Abstract For continued safe operation of pipelines, thousands of integrity digs are conducted every year to repair ILI detected defects. Integrity-driven pipeline excavations can be quite costly, present significant scheduling challenges with landowner consultation and seasonal access limitations, and an unmitigated defect may have required a pressure reduction or service outage, resulting in a loss of revenue from the asset. Dents are known to be one of the drivers for many integrity excavations, especially for liquid pipelines. A pipeline with a minimal mechanical deformation is not expected

Abstract:
Abstract A dose assessment methodology was developed for IS-LOCA (Interface System – Loss of Coolant Accident) event, which is one of the design basis accidents in BWR plants, and a dose assessment at site boundary was implemented for the accident scenario by applying the evaluation method. The main objective of the assessment is to review a conventional conservative dose assessment model in the accident scenario. The conventional conservative model is a method due to considering all fission products (FP) in liquid migrate to airborne (i.e. 100%) when reactor water is discharged from piping br

Abstract:
The effective integrity management of seam weld defects in pipelines is a challenge for the pipeline operators. The current In-Line Inspection (ILI) technologies can detect linear anomalies in the seam weld but have a limited capability in discriminating different types of features, such as crack and crack-like features, hook cracks, notch-type lack of fusion (LOF) indications, and inclusions. Due to this limitation, pipeline operators have to assume ILI reported linear indications as cracks and utilize the most conservative methods for assessment. This conservatism may have led to unnecessary

Abstract:
Reef fish populations play a vital ecological and economic role in the coral reef ecosystems of Florida and the U.S. Virgin Islands (USVI). However, these populations face significant threats from habitat degradation, rising global temperature, coral diseases, and increased fishing pressures. Traditional fishery-dependent data have proven inadequate for accurately assessing reef fish populations, necessitating the development of standardized, fishery-independent methodology. This document presents the Cooperative Multiagency Reef Fish Monitoring Protocol, a unified methodology designed to asse

Abstract:
This report outlines the methodology behind the Global Wetland Outlook 2025. It provides a detailed account of the data sources, analytical steps and assumptions employed to estimate the global extent of wetlands, evaluate historical trends in wetland loss and degradation, appraise the value of wetland ecosystem services and calculate the costs and scale of conservation and restoration activities. Drawing on satellite-derived datasets, national and citizen-science reporting, economic valuation models (SPIQ-FS and ESVD), and a synthesis of published studies, the report generates spatially and t

Abstract:
This chapter describes tools and a methodology to model wind and flood risks from tropical storms under present and future climate accounting for natural infrastructure. Wind forcing provide a crucial link to hydrodynamic models that can be used in risk assessments to estimate extent of and damages from flooding and erosion. Further, such flood risk models can then include the effects of ecosystems, such as mangroves, to model the effects on risk of conservation and restoration outcomes but also individual nature-based projects to reduce risks. The chapter describes hazard modeling techniques
