Understanding regional hydroclimatic patterns is essential for managing water resources and ensuring agricultural sustainability in rain-fed areas under changing climate conditions. The intensifying effects of climate change on rain-fed agriculture in India necessitate a comprehensive understanding of the precipitation dynamics and groundwater...

In Vietnam, where domestic wastewater significantly contributes to water pollution, innovative treatment solutions are urgently needed. This study assesses the effectiveness of subsurface horizontal flow constructed wetlands (CWs) for decentralized domestic wastewater treatment, focusing on systems planted with Napier grass (Pennisetum purpureum)...

National‐scale monitoring of mangrove forests, including their spatial structure (e.g., canopy height and above‐ground biomass), is necessary for the implementation of global agreements related to climate change and biodiversity conservation. Field measurements of mangrove structural parameters, however, are costly to collect. Here, we investigated...

Landslides have become increasingly frequent and destructive in Uttarakhand, leading to substantial loss of life and significant damage to infrastructure. This research focuses on generating a detailed landslide susceptibility map for a selected area in Chamoli district, Uttarakhand, by integrating remote sensing and geographical information system...

Understanding future interactions between nexus elements through the analysis of scenarios and other diverse visions of the future, including the understandings of IPLC, is critical to support policy and management actions today and contribute to sustainable resource management and just outcomes for nature and people. Scenarios of continuation of...

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)...
