Microplastic pollution in tropical urban rivers has become an increasing environmental concern due to rapid urbanization, inadequate waste management, and hydrological transport processes. This study investigated the occurrence, characteristics, and spatiotemporal distribution of microplastics in the Can Tho River, Vietnam, along an urban– peri...

Typhoon impacts in the Philippines exhibit strong neighbourhood-scale heterogeneity driven by interactions among hazard intensity, exposure, and vulnerability, yet most operational assessments remain hazard-centric. This study presents a grid-based machine-learning framework for neighbourhood-scale typhoon risk mapping integrating geophysical...

Tourism is a key driver of economic growth in Thailand, but it also generates significant environmental and socio-economic pressures, particularly in coastal destinations such as Krabi. Increasing plastic pollution, resource stress, and socio-economic inequalities highlight the limitations of conventional tourism models and the need for more...

Typhoon impacts in the Philippines exhibit strong neighbour hood-scale heterogeneity driven by interactions among haz ard intensity, exposure, and vulnerability, yet most opera tional assessments remain hazard-centric. This study presents a grid-based machine-learning framework for neighbour hood-scale typhoon risk mapping integrating geophysical...

This chapter explores the Water-Energy-Food (WEF) nexus as an integrated framework vital for advancing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) amidst growing global challenges. It introduces the concept of the WEF nexus, which transcends traditional resource management by emphasizing the interconnections between water, energy, and food systems...

Embracing the Climate-Biodiversity Synergy Climate change and biodiversity loss are no longer separate crises. They are interconnected challenges driving one another, threatening the very foundations of societies and economies. Yet, this interdependence offers a powerful opportunity: actions to protect nature can boost climate resilience, and...
