Over 20 years, actively pursuing learning, for example by removing food from populations, provided little benefit.

In this study, multiple methods—seepage meters, piezometers, and the type-curve fitting method using temperature profile data—were employed to estimate fluxes at the groundwater-surface water interface of a small pond (Osong Pond) in South Korea. Measurements were conducted and compared during the wet season of 2020 (July–August 2020). Additionally, temperature data were collected during the dry seasons of 2021 and 2022 (November 2021–March 2022) to assess the applicability of the type-curve fitting method for long-term monitoring. The average vertical velocity measured by seepage meters was the highest (2.67 × 10⁻⁸ m/s), while the type-curve fitting method estimated the lowest average velocity (2.58 × 10⁻¹⁰ m/s). During the dry seasons of 2021–2022, the type-curve fitting method yielded an average flow velocity of 7.11 × 10⁻¹⁰ m/s, comparable to the dry season values of 2020. Although the lakebed temperature-based method underestimated vertical velocities in this study area, it can be effective for long-term monitoring. We recommend combining multiple measurement techniques tailored to the geological characteristics (e.g., topography and sediment composition) and climatic conditions of study sites. This integrated approach facilitates a more accurate evaluation of groundwater-surface water interactions and enhances understanding of the broader flow system.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":542,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Earth Sciences","volume":"84 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143749161","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}

City-level decision-makers are well placed to influence and facilitate this transition. Decarbonising transport, buildings, and energy is key to combating the climate crisis and reaching self-assigned city-level carbon targets to curb warming and protect the environment. However, deciding which decarbonisation projects to implement is an issue. Choosing the wrong project could have financial or reputational repercussions, thus deciding on an appropriate set of interventions can be challenging for city decision-makers. Learning about the successes and challenges of city-level sustainability projects is vital for decision-makers at the city-level hoping to create of their own low-carbon city. To this end, this article outlines a new, practical method developed with city-level decision-makers that identifies key learning opportunities from other cities based on their own decarbonisation priorities. This city-to-city learning framework makes selecting decarbonisation projects easier and more efficient, as it enables users to identify decarbonisation projects that align with their environmental plans and priorities. The Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA) provides a case study for the application of this framework, demonstrating how the learning framework is used to narrow down the most suitable decarbonisation projects for the Greater Manchester city-region, based on bespoke sustainability criteria and targets.

In addition to this, geogenic sources or anthropogenic activities could also result in higher contamination of game meat. Considering these aspects, the present study was carried out in wild boar (<i>n</i> = 53) from different hunting grounds in northern part of Sardinia (Italy) for evaluation of mean residual levels in liver, spleen, and thigh muscle through inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS).

However, the underlying mechanism remains unclear, limiting further advancements in degradation efficiency. This study seeks to clarify the mechanism by analyzing intestinal morphology, gut microbiota structure, gene transcription, and targeted metabolites. Specifically, histopathology results demonstrated that wheat bran supplementation alleviated polystyrene-induced intestinal injury in larvae. From a genetic perspective, genes related to annexins and tight junction proteins were upregulated in intestinal tissues. These genetic changes positively correlated with increased levels of short-chain fatty acids, eicosanoids, and beneficial bacteria (e.g., <em>Latilactobacillus curvatus</em>). Moreover, wheat bran supplementation alleviated gut microbiota dysbiosis, suppressed pathogenic bacteria, reduced over upregulation of NADPH oxidase activity related genes, and up-regulated genes linked to the intestinal immune system process pathway, thereby mitigating the intestinal injury<em>.</em> It also upregulated genes associated with the aromatase activity pathway, promoting the degradation of polystyrene and its intermediates. In summary, wheat bran supplementation enhanced the polystyrene degradation efficiency of <em>Z. atratus</em> larvae by upregulating genes linked to the aromatase activity pathway and mitigating intestinal injury (through modulation of intestinal gene transcription, microbiota structure, and metabolites). Our findings offer new insights into improving the efficiency of insect-mediated plastic biodegradation.","PeriodicalId":361,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Hazardous Materials","volume":"58 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143758375","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}

Therefore, the present study was designed to evaluate the microbial quality of swimming pool and pond waters in Lahore City, Punjab, Pakistan. For this purpose, 10 swimming pools and 10 ponds in the study area were selected. The microbial quality of swimming pool and pond waters was tested by bacterial plate counts and the identification of <i>Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus,</i> and <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> by both biochemical tests and polymerase chain reaction.

Ash deposited after forest fires contains hazardous contaminants that can leach into groundwater, posing risks to water quality. While wildfire effects on surface water are well-documented, the processes and risks of contaminant leaching into groundwater remain poorly understood. This study evaluated the leaching behavior of nutrients (N and P) and trace metals (V, Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Cd, and Pb) in ash-soil systems using soil column tests with two soil types (granite [SG] vs. schist [SX]) and two heating temperatures (150°C vs. 500°C). Significant differences in leaching were observed based on soil type, fire severity, and ash deposition. Ash addition increased leachate concentrations of N, P, Mn, Zn, Co, and V, with Mn often exceeding drinking water standards. In general, SG soils exhibited greater contaminant mobilization, except for N, Cd, V, and Zn, which were found in higher concentrations in SX soil leachates. Higher temperatures decreased soil organic matter and altered pH and conductivity. These findings highlight the critical role of soil texture, heating, and ash deposition in post-fire contaminant mobility and underscore the urgent need for targeted management strategies to protect groundwater in wildfire-prone regions.","PeriodicalId":361,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Hazardous Materials","volume":"31 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143758739","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}

Here, we used the regulatory monitoring database from Quebec, Canada, to develop statistical models for predicting <em>L. pneumophila</em> concentration variability in cooling towers and integrate these models into a screening-level QMRA model to predict human health risks. Analysis of 105,463 monthly <em>L. pneumophila</em> test results revealed that the exceedance rate of the 10⁴ colony-forming unit (CFU) per liter threshold was constant at 10 % from 2016 to 2020, emphasizing the need to better validate the efficacy of corrective measures following the threshold exceedances. Among 2852 cooling towers, 51.2 % reported no detections, 38.5 % had up to nine positives, and 10.2 % over ten. The gamma or the lognormal distributions adequately described site-specific variations in <em>L. pneumophila</em> concentrations, but parametric uncertainty was very high for the lognormal distribution. We showed that rigorous model comparison is essential to predict peak concentrations accurately. Using QMRA, we found that an average <em>L. pneumophila</em> concentration below 1.4 × 10⁴ CFU L⁻¹ should be maintained in cooling towers to meet a health-based target of 10⁻⁶ DALY/pers.-year for clinical severity infections. We identified 137 cooling towers at risk of exceeding this limit, primarily due to the observation or prediction of rare peak concentrations above 10⁵ CFU L⁻¹.

It delves into the micro-dynamics of technology strategies: exploitation (a passive approach), exploration (a proactive approach), and a balanced exploitation-exploration stance during the transition. Based on technological innovation system (TIS) and Lotka-Volterra models, a system dynamics (SD) technology interaction framework is applied to conventional internal combustion engine vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, and battery electric vehicles in US market. The SD modelling provides a platform for experimenting with policy mixes by analysing the timing, scale, scope, and sequence of interventions. Several scenarios are explored, such as landscape pressure, predator-prey dynamics, niche- and incumbent-favoured relationships, and sociotechnical transition, spanning from 1985 to a forward-looking 2070. Findings reveal that hybrid technologies play a multifaceted role: as an exploratory solution accelerating technology development dynamics in emerging technologies and as an exploitative solution slowing down market development dynamics in emerging technologies, and hardly inhibiting technology and market development dynamics in incumbent technologies. Moreover, findings confirm the traditional sailing ship effect—establishing a causal link between the emergence of new technologies and the active and systematic enhancement of incumbent technologies—while also uncovering a non-traditional sailing ship effect in the form of ‘spillovers.’ These spillovers enable firms to manage uncertainties and timing in transitions by orchestrating sociotechnical ‘spillbacks’ and ‘spillforwards’ between emerging and incumbent technologies via hybrid technologies. To effectively accelerate transitions using hybrid technologies, the study recommends adopting a sociotechnical policy approach that simultaneously promotes niche creation and regime destabilisation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54294,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Innovation and Societal Transitions","volume":"56 ","pages":"Article 100992"},"PeriodicalIF":5.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143746868","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
