This study aims to assess the impacts of land use and land cover (LULC) changes on the water quality of the Surma river in Bangladesh. For this, seasonal water quality changes were assessed in comparison to the LULC changes recorded from 2010 to 2019. Obtained results from this study indicated that pH, electrical conductivity (EC), and total...

Forests are an important natural resource and are instrumental in sustaining environmental sustainability. Burning biomass in forests results in greenhouse gas emissions, many of which are longlived. Precise and consistent broad-scale monitoring of fire intensity is a valuable tool for analyzing climate and ecological changes related to fire...

The connections between the scientific findings and SDG-6 are often not clear, which results in increasing the gap between technical developments and academic discourse, and the policy practitioners and/or implementers. The present paper explores the existing scientific research on water that directly connects to SDG 6 using the bibliometric...

Illumination variations in non-atmospherically corrected high-resolution satellite (HRS) images acquired at different dates/times/locations pose a major challenge for large-area environmental mapping and monitoring. This problem is exacerbated in cases where a classification model is trained only on one image (and often limited training data) but...

滋賀県を対象とし，ネットゼロ社会の実現に向けた地域主導型の木質バイオマスエネルギー利用シ ナリオを作成した。シナリオ中では，木質バイオマスの需給量，作業時間，経済効果などを定量的に求めた 上で，自然を基盤とする解決策（NbS）の観点から，シナリオの実現が地域社会にもたらしうる便益を多面 的に推計，評価した。多面的な便益の定量評価は，社会課題を解決するための取り組みの進捗管理や長期的 モニタリングにも有用であることを示唆した。シナリオの実現に必要な要素として，木質バイオマスをエネ ルギーとして利用する際の，利用者やコミュニティに求められる行動変化や活動変化について考察した。 Targeting Shiga Prefecture, the study proposed energy...

クリーンウッド法施行から5年後の時点における、全国の木材関連事業者による遵守状況について、アンケート及びヒアリング調査によって明らかにした。

The Institute for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES) has launched an interactive online tool to assess how the observed and projected changes in river basins relate to various Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and their associated targets, from both a spatial and temporal perspective. The Interactive SDG Tool for River Basins is the outcome...

Agricultural certification schemes are increasingly requiring concession holders to prevent deforestation when they develop plantations but do not sufficiently address forest restoration, which is necessary to prevent further biodiversity loss. This policy brief recommends, by focusing on palm oil, that agricultural certification schemes strengthen...

Although many researchers highlight the benefits of Urban Green Spaces (UGS) to city dwellers, understanding of residents’ emotional association with UGS remains an incomplete and exciting area of place research. In this study, we conducted an empirical assessment of residents’ Place Attachment (PA) towards UGS in the Greater Tokyo region. For this...
