Abstract:
The rapid expansion of urban spaces driven by accelerating urbanization has profoundly impacted the eco-environmental quality. However, the dynamic relationship between urbanization and eco-environmental quality remains insufficiently understood. This study quantifies urbanization intensity and eco-environmental quality using the impervious surface distribution density (ISDD) and Remote Sensing-based Ecological Index (RSEI). By examining the spatiotemporal dynamics and evolutionary relationships of these indicators in Hangzhou from 1985 to 2020, we found that urban expansion drove ecological d

Abstract:
The impact of Chinese-style fiscal decentralization on regional energy intensity has long been disputed by the supporters of “federal environmentalism” and those who hold “race to the bottom” views. At the same time, with the transformation of China’s development mode, the Chinese government is paying increasing attention to the protection of ecological civilization and the realization of sustainable development, and the government’s attention to the ecological environment is becoming an important factor affecting regional energy intensity. Therefore, this paper takes the fiscal decentralizati

Abstract:
Among the main elements that contribute to climate change are degradation processes and the ecological level of a landscape. These two topics have been discussed and researched for many years, and many studies have been conducted. The idea behind this article is to determine the correlation between the ecological stability of a territory and the intensity of degradation processes and find out how ecological stability affects the intensity of soil erosion and vice versa. The ecological stability was calculated based on various methods during the years analyzed, i.e., 1990, 2006, 2012, and 2018.

Abstract:
Statoblasts are dormant, asexual propagules critical for the survival and dispersal of bryozoans, such as Pectinatella magnifica. Understanding the resilience of statoblasts to environmental stresses is crucial for predicting the response of bryozoan populations to changing conditions. This study investigates the effect of freezing on the viability of statoblasts from P. magnifica. Statoblasts were collected from Pectinatella magnifica colonies in the Protected Landscape area and Biospheric Reservation Trebonsko. Molecular analyses were used to assess the freezing effect on the statoblasts, es

Abstract:
Environmental monitoring in specially protected areas is a vital problem, especially in places subject to anthropogenic impacts. The Tunkinskaya Valley (190 km long) is the western extension of the Baikal rift zone. On the territory of the valley there is a national park of federal significance. At the same time, the territory is subject to intensive anthropogenic load. The Tunkinskaya Valley is an attractive place for tourists. The local population (20,000 people) is engaged in cattle breeding. Industrialized areas of the Baikal region may also have an impact on the valley ecosystems. The pap

Abstract:
Rapid urbanization across Lagos, Nigeria has driven extensive land cover modifications with significant climatic impacts. This study analyzed interlinkages between land use land cover (LULC) transformations and land surface temperature (LST) shifts in the intensely developing Lagos suburb of Ikorodu from 1991-2021 utilizing robust geospatial techniques. Multi-spectral Landsat 5, 7 and 8 data enabled reliable LULC classification into five covers using a Random Forest algorithm. Subsetting the Ikorodu area facilitated localized change analyses across 1991, 2001, 2011 and 2021. LULC changes signi

Abstract:
In areas rich in large-sized wood in low-rise buildings, are composite wooden structures. Compliance in calculations of such structures is taken into account by factors. Compliance factors are determined experimentally with a large spread of values, which leads to a significant overstatement of the material intensity of the structures. Issues of error of calculation of bearing capacity of composite wooden elements at variation of their layering are considered in the work.

Abstract:
A long-distance monitor lidar should feature high radiation intensity (of the order of hundreds of millijoules), because a scattered light intensity falls with distance more rapidly than R2. The laser radiation spectral width should be sufficiently small (of the order of hundreds small or the order of one tenth of an angstrom).

Abstract:
Record-breaking global temperatures and increasing frequency and intensity of extreme weather events underline the threat posed by the climate crisis. The Amazonia rainforest is widely regarded as one of several key bulwarks against global warming and a transition to a low-carbon future. Yet the worlds largest tropical forest is experiencing intense ecological degradation due to intensive cattle ranching, large-scale farming, unstainable mining, and a constellation of illegal activities. A paradigm shift is required in the economic model for the Amazonia and the people who live there. Put simp

Abstract:
The Heartland Inventory and Monitoring Network has monitored vegetation at Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve for more than 20 years. Monitoring assists the preserve in managing the nearly 10,000-acre (4,047 ha) site by providing status and trends of vegetation and disturbance metrics. The site protects critical remnant tallgrass prairie as well as the ranching legacy of the Flint Hills region. Monitoring was conducted in 30 permanent sites across the western preserve. We assessed current and future climate trends, fire and grazing rates, and vegetation metrics, including ground cover, guild,

Abstract:
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are recalcitrant substances present globally in many landfill wastewater leachates and have potential ecological and human health risks. Conventional treatment technologies have shown limited efficacy for many PFAS due to the stable C–F bonds. Therefore, there is growing interest in applying advanced oxidation processes to decrease the aqueous concentrations in contaminated wastewater and mitigate risks. The goal of this study was to evaluate the photocatalytic performance of treating PFAS in landfill leachate using a novel photocatalyst composite. Tr

Abstract:
Forest and wildland fires are a natural part of ecosystems worldwide, but large fires in particular can cause societal, economic and ecological disruption. Fires are an important source of greenhouse gases and black carbon that can further amplify and accelerate climate change. In recent years, large forest fires in Sweden demonstrate that the issue should also be considered in other parts of Fennoscandia.
