Urbanization is a major driver of land-use change, with significant implications for sustainable development in rapidly growing cities. In this study, we assess the spatiotemporal patterns of urban expansion in Lucknow, India, from 1991 to 2021, using geospatial techniques and Landsat satellite imagery. The key objective is to analyze urban growth...

Elevated fluoride (F⁻) levels in groundwater, primarily due to geogenic processes, pose significant health risks, including dental and skeletal fluorosis and neurological disorders. This study aimed to quantify source-dependent F⁻ exposure at the community level in selected tropical dry regions of Andhra Pradesh, India. These locations include...

This paper attempts to measure the role of the mangrove ecosystem in minimizing coastal exposure using the InVEST (V3.9.0) Coastal Vulnerability Assessment (CVA) model in Tamil Nadu, India. The result depicts that the exposure value of the Tamil Nadu coastal stretch varies from 1.71 to 4.78 on a five-point scale. More than half of the coastal...

Rampant urban sprawl has affected the structure and function of existing urban green and blue spaces, exposing developing cities to unexpected disaster events. Drawing on a mixture of secondary information supported by GIS and field-based studies, we assessed the impact of growing impervious surfaces on the dynamic zones of urban wetlands in Nagpur...

This review article provides a thorough examination of the factors affecting energy consumption in India and around the world, focussing on suburban areas and their role in the broader context of building construction and energy efficiency. The study examines the switch from conventional energy sources to more diversified energy portfolios...

本パンフレットは、IGES関西研究センターがインドのエネルギー資源研究所（TERI）と協力して2016年度に設立し、インドで運営をおこなっている、日本-インド技術マッチメイキングプラットフォーム（Japan-India Technology Matchmaking Platform: JITMAP*）に関して、その活動概要及び成果を事例も含めて広く発信し、認知度の向上及び新たな参加主体や連携機関等の拡大等を目的として作成した。 *JITMAP：　技術の供給側である日本企業および需給側であるインド企業間のビジネスマッチメイキングを支援することにより、インドにおける日本の環境技術の移転を促進するためのマルチステークホルダープラットフォームである。

The Sikkim region of the Eastern Himalayas is highly susceptible to Glacial Lake Outburst Floods (GLOFs), a risk that has increased significantly due to rapid glacial retreat driven by climate change in recent years. This study presents a comprehensive evaluation of GLOF susceptibility in Sikkim, employing Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Fuzzy...

Urbanisation in Jaipur, Rajasthan’s capital, has significantly impacted land use and land cover (LULC) over the past four decades. This study addresses the pressing issue of how rapid urban expansion affects green spaces and environmental balance. Utilizing satellite imagery and a support vector machine (SVM) algorithm, LULC maps for 1993, 2003...

This study investigates the relationship between hydrological factors and waterlogged regions, emphasizing the critical role of robust urban drainage systems in reducing urban flood risks and improving urban health. Using satellite data and GIS technologies, the study revealed a strong positive correlation (r = 0.65, p < 0.01) between the...
