Lifestyle changes are an essential, complementary measure for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and, therefore, also an important ingredient to climate policy. Computational models of lifestyle changes and their contribution to climate change mitigation can provide valuable insights in support of decision-making by individuals and policymaking. In...
Conference Proceeding
Asia-Pacific Regional Workshop on Scaling Climate Solutions in Agrifood Systems: Climate-Smart Technologies, Carbon Market Pathways and COP30 Preparation
Agrifood systems in Asia-Pacific are increasingly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, facing risks from floods, droughts, and shifting weather patterns, while also contributing to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. At the same time, the sector offers enormous potential for adaptation and mitigation through climate-smart practices, innovative...

The Vietnamese Mekong Delta (VMD) is undergoing increasing disruption to its sediment–water continuum due to upstream hydropower development, regional land use change, and climate variability. Suspended sediment concentration (SSC) and streamflow are key indicators of the delta’s ecological stability and agricultural productivity, yet their recent...

With accelerating global environmental change, arid ecosystems are entering a destabilized state, exhibiting greater fragmentation, impaired ecological functions, and diminished resilience. However, the systemic thresholds and collapse dynamics underlying these transitions remain poorly understood. This study addresses this gap by proposing a...

Over the last decade, L-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite data has become more widely available globally, providing new opportunities for biodiversity and ecosystem services (BES) monitoring. To better understand these opportunities, we conducted a systematic scoping review of articles that utilized L-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR)...

In this study, we developed a logistic regression modeling approach to analyze the relationship between utility-scale solar power plant (SPP) locations and flood hazards. Based on the standardized coefficients of the model, we compared this relationship with the relationship between SPP presence/absence and other typical spatial determinants like...
