However, the spatiotemporal variations and driving factors of dissolved N<sub>2</sub>O concentrations in these waters remain unclear. This study examined the spatiotemporal variations of dissolved N<sub>2</sub>O in an interconnected river-lake system in a subtropical urban landscape. The annual mean dissolved N<sub>2</sub>O concentration was 0.81 μg N L<sup>–1</sup>, with a mean N<sub>2</sub>O saturation of 304%, indicating the system could act as a N<sub>2</sub>O emitter. Under the influence of daily fluctuations in water temperature and DO, the diurnal variation of N<sub>2</sub>O was most pronounced in autumn, with the smallest amplitude observed in winter. Seasonal mean concentrations of dissolved N<sub>2</sub>O, N, phosphorus (P), chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) and dissolved oxygen (DO) peaked in winter and were lowest in summer. The central lake had significantly lower dissolved N<sub>2</sub>O, N and P concentrations, but possessed higher water temperature, pH, concentrations of Chl-a and DO than its upstream and downstream rivers. Dissolved N<sub>2</sub>O concentrations were positively correlated with concentrations of N and P, but negatively with pH, Chl-a, and DO. There was intensifying competition for N between the N<sub>2</sub>O producers and algae, particularly in summer or in the central lake area. Therefore, the spatiotemporal variations of dissolved N<sub>2</sub>O concentrations were primarily driven by the integrated effects of seasonal conditions, nutrient fluctuations and algal growth. This research can provide essential scientific guidance for developing the effective strategies to control N pollutions and mitigate the risk of N<sub>2</sub>O emissions from water bodies in urban landscape.","PeriodicalId":311,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Pollution","volume":"103 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.9,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143745702","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, this study aims to examine the role of Circular Economy Practices CEPs in decarbonizing the Chinese construction industry by identifying and prioritizing the most impactful strategies. To achieve this, the Fuzzy Delphi Method FDM was adopted to systematically refine and validate the set of relevant CEPs based on expert consensus, ensuring the inclusion of the most significant CEPs. Subsequently, the Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory DEMATEL method was used to determine the causal relationships and influence levels among these CEPs, enabling the identification of key drivers for carbon reduction. Results show that supply chain optimization CEP20, adaptive reuse of materials CEP18, and bio-based materials CEP17 emerged as the most influential CEPs for reducing the industry's carbon footprint. Further, sensitivity analysis validated these findings' robustness, ensuring their practical application reliability. The study provides actionable insights for managers and industry stakeholders by highlighting the need for integrating CEPs into operational strategies. For example, optimizing the supply chain CEP20 can enhance material efficiency while adopting bio-based materials CEP17 encourages sustainable procurement policies. Policymakers are encouraged to develop incentives and regulatory frameworks that facilitate these transitions. By offering a structured framework, the results guide decision-makers in achieving tangible progress toward China's carbon neutrality goals, fostering both environmental sustainability and competitive advantage in the construction sector.","PeriodicalId":349,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cleaner Production","volume":"3 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.1,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143745703","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The development of insecticide resistance in disease vectors has become a significant problem in Ae. aegypti. Monitoring insecticide resistance is essential for resistance management in Ae. aegypti. This study involved the collection of Ae. aegypti populations from four important cotton-growing regions in southern Punjab, Pakistan, for resistance monitoring over a two-year period (2021-2022). This study also assessed the impact of insecticide resistance on biological parameters of Ae. aegypti. Moderate-to-high levels of resistance were observed against all the tested insecticides viz., chlorpyrifos, chlorfenapyr, deltamethrin, flonicamid, spirotetramat, and spinetoram. However, compared to the Lab-susceptible population, higher levels of resistance to buprofezin (59.03-84.40) and imidacloprid (68.49-100.01) were found in all populations. This high resistance can be attributed to increased use of these two insecticides in cotton fields, as compared to other insecticides. In the lab-susceptible population, higher values for the intrinsic rate of increase (r) and the net reproductive rate (R<sub>0</sub>) i.e., 0.20 per day and 23.24 offspring/female were observed, respectively. This was also validated by population projection data where more than 2.5-fold adults (1,020,361.80 individuals) were calculated in the Lab-susceptible population as compared to the most resistant populations.

This study delves into the often-obscure effects of insecticides on hidden herbivore species, focusing specifically on the diamide insecticide chlorantraniliprole and its impact on the concealed insect herbivore, the coffee leaf miner Leucoptera coffeella (Guérin-Mèneville & Perrottet) (Lepidoptera: Lyonetidae). We document the progressive effects of chlorantraniliprole from egg-laying through the insect's development and reproductive output. By examining egg-laying preferences, development, survival, respiration rate, leaf consumption, and polysaccharide and protein accumulation, alongside fecundity, in two field-collected leaf miner populations, we elucidate chlorantraniliprole's broader effects. While the insecticide did not alter the leaf miner's egg-laying preferences, one population exhibited higher larval survival, indicating chlorantraniliprole resistance. This chlorantraniliprole-resistant population displayed a lower respiration rate-indicative of reduced stress-and higher leaf consumption, accompanied by increased sugar and protein accumulation. Although this population showed lower adult longevity, it exhibited higher fecundity. These findings highlight the multifaceted impacts of insecticides, extending beyond survival to affect development, fecundity, and potential fitness. Variations in response among insect populations suggest that resistant insects may outperform susceptible ones even under sublethal exposure, with significant implications for management strategies and future outbreaks.</p>","PeriodicalId":11497,"journal":{"name":"Ecotoxicology","volume":" ","pages":"412-424"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142791265","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To preserve HQ in the Yangtze River Basin, a multi-tiered protected areas (PAs) system, including nature reserves, scenic areas, and diverse types of nature parks, has been established in the Dongting Lake Eco-Economic Zone. Here, we assessed the conservation effectiveness of PAs system using the Propensity Score Matching-Difference in Differences (PSM-DID) model across a spatial grid of 10,301 grid cells (1 km × 1 km) and 96 individual PAs. Robustness for control variables and a placebo test for changes in the timing were conducted to ensure the reliability of the findings. The results indicated that the PAs system significantly enhanced HQ conservation at the spatial grid level compared with matched control areas, and substantial effects were observed 10 years post-establishment. Specific PA types—nature reserves, scenic areas, and forest parks —outperformed others in HQ conservation. However, the conservation effectiveness of overlapping areas of different PA types was low, which reflects shortcomings of the traditional design of the PAs system. Only 49.5% of PAs showed positive conservation effectiveness at the individual PAs level, which largely stemmed from the double counting of overlapping areas among different PA types. Additionally, the urban–rural gradient, tourism intensity, and management agency levels were significant determinants of conservation effectiveness. These findings offer pivotal insights for refining policy assessments and underscore the need for tailored management approaches to optimize the effectiveness of the PAs system and advance sustainable regional development.","PeriodicalId":349,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cleaner Production","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.1,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143745381","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Building upon prior research frameworks, 48 paired endometrial and urine samples from parturient women were analyzed under rigorously controlled protocols to minimize exogenous contamination. Raman microscopy identified six polymer types, with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and polystyrene (PS) constituting primary components across both sample types. Particle size distributions spanned 1.23–6.98 μm, exhibiting comparable mean diameters in urine (2.85 ± 1.26 μm) and endometrial samples (2.89 ± 1.40 μm). Subsequent py-GC/MS analysis revealed previously undetected polymer co-occurrences (PS, PC, P, and PV) in samples initially classified as single-polymer PTFE or PS via Raman spectroscopy, thereby exposing inherent disparities in method-specific sensitivity and resolution. The follow-up multi-method comparison demonstrates that Raman microscopy excels in particle-specific morphological characterization, while py-GC/MS provides superior polymer quantification and composite identification. Our findings underscore the necessity of integrating orthogonal analytical approaches to overcome methodological limitations and achieve comprehensive MP profiling in complex biological systems.","PeriodicalId":361,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Hazardous Materials","volume":"183 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143745543","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We reviewed the peer-reviewed and gray literature describing methodological approaches and their application to social impact assessments in conservation. We investigated whether the methodologies used empirically are advancing to reflect contemporary social objectives, in particular around rights, procedural justice, and recognition of identities and knowledge. In our initial review of methodological papers, we identified two interrelated themes that can drive high-quality social impact assessment: incorporation of the perspectives, knowledge systems and participation of Indigenous Peoples and local communities, and the completeness and appropriateness of methodological approaches adopted. We categorized these themes into principles of good practice (e.g., local participation and disaggregated social analyses) and used them to analyze empirical social impact assessments and explore the extent to which they were applied.

This call is often framed around the complexity of 21st century conservation challenges and changing societal values toward fish and wildlife and its management. Fish and wildlife management agencies must engage with conservation social sciences to proactively address pressing conservation challenges, such as climate change, habitat degradation, wildfire, and biodiversity loss, and to identify, understand, and be responsive to changing societal needs, interests, and preferences. However, little data exist on fish and wildlife organizations’ abilities to address and effectively incorporate social science information into decision-making processes, policy, or practice. We examined how social science is conducted, supported, and integrated in state and federal fish and wildlife agencies in the United States and the barriers that might stymie successful integration. We surveyed social scientists working in these organizations through an online questionnaire. Although most state and federal social scientists believed social science information is important to their agency, support (e.g., adequate funding, staffing, professional development opportunities) was limited and barriers (i.e., knowledge, capacity, institutional, and ideological) stymied successful integration. To increase support and minimize barriers to integration, we recommend increasing or reallocating funds to hire social scientists to meet agency needs, clearly communicating the importance of conservation social science to staff, providing or funding social science training for all staff, and incorporating social science research methods and best practices in agency decision-making, planning, and policy efforts.
