Research on transformers in remote sensing (RS), which started to increase after 2021, is facing the problem of a relative lack of review. To understand the trends of transformers in RS, we undertook a quantitative analysis of the major research on transformers over the past two years by dividing the application of transformers into eight domains...

Accounting for around 40 per cent of the world’s economy, 30 per cent of its energy demand and 25 per cent of energy system CO2 emissions, the G7 is called to play a leading role in building consensus towards implementing the goals of the 2015 Paris Agreement. This policy brief argues for the urgency for the G7 to intensify its climate ambition...

Dynamic monitoring of reservoir water storage in arid areas is important for water resources assessment, hydroelectric power generation and agricultural irrigation. However, existing reservoir water calculation methods often rely on in-situ measurements, which limits their application in data scarce regionals and for regional scale analyses. Hence...

Environmental infrastructure is essential for the common good. Addressing sustainability crises and fostering environmental movements require accelerated deployment of environmental infrastructure. While such infrastructure is necessary, Not In My Backyard (NIMBY) attitudes have remained due to concerns such as air, water, and noise pollution. We...

For almost a decade, countries have been working to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Yet progress on the SDGs across countries, as well as across the 17 goals, has proven frustratingly slow. Even countries that have performed relatively well on the SDGs may have done so by causing negative externalities, such as environmental...

The Mekong Delta, South East Asia's ‘rice bowl’, sustains more than 18 million people through its agricultural output. This yield is secured by efficient water management systems but is susceptible to climatic changes. As Vietnam's policies aim to optimize the delta's semi-mountainous regions reliant on rain-fed agriculture, this study investigates...
