To illustrate the operational logic and the SES interaction mechanisms of water governance, a representative area of aquaculture pollution governance (APG) in Yixing City, China, was selected as a case study. In this study, the SES theory was integrated with stakeholders' perceptions, and a modified framework for APG was constructed. Key variables, SES action situations, social-ecological benefits, aquaculturists' perceptions of governance, and its influencing factors were analyzed through interviews, questionnaires, field surveys and an ordered logit model. Results reveal that the implementation of APG involved a complex SES interaction process, in which ecological performance is prioritized over social performance. In this collective action, aquaculturists' perceptions shifted in response to policy implementation, with the reported support and satisfaction degrees being lower than response degree. Additionally, the three dimensions of policy perception were influenced by different SES variables. A central role was played by the government in promoting collective action for APG, with fair compensation for aquaculturists identified as a crucial factor. The dynamic interactions within the SES of water governance were revealed, and aquaculturists' perceptions of governance in improving the lake's ecological environment, along with the factors shaping their perceptions, were clarified. The findings provide insights for addressing complex water governance issues.

PFZs are identified using satellite-derived Sea Surface Temperature (SST) and chlorophyll (Chl-a), representing productive ocean fronts that are expected to aggregate fish. This study aims to validate the impact of PFZ advisories on daily village fish landings and to investigate environmental conditions driving PFZ formation and their influence on trophic guild structure of catch, a grouping based on the feeding ecology of the species. To achieve this, the daily PFZ advisories issued by the Indian National Centre for Ocean Information Services (INCOIS) and daily fish landing data of 117 villages across the state of Kerala, southwest coast of India during 2022–23, were used. Using a lag period approach, which accounts for the delayed responses of the environmental variables on PFZ occurrences, we analysed the effects of remotely-sensed and modelled physical and biogeochemical factors on PFZ formation. Our findings revealed significantly higher fish landings on PFZ days and the immediate next day, validating PFZ advisories over a broad spatial range. Trophic guild analysis showed a shift in dominance of planktivores on PFZ days to carnivores in subsequent days, reflecting productivity transfer through the food web. Lag period analysis indicated that environmental precursors within a two-week window before PFZ formation significantly differed from other days of analysis, identifying optimal lag day for each variable to have maximum influence on the PFZ formation. These findings highlight the need for in-situ experiments and time-series observations at evolving ocean fronts to validate PFZ dynamics and trophic succession. While adoption rates during the study period were unavailable, the higher catches associated with PFZ occurrences affirm the reliability of these advisories. Signs of food web progression and lagged environmental responses also offer valuable insights to refine models to support sustainable marine fisheries forecasts.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":309,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Impact Assessment Review","volume":"114 ","pages":"Article 107953"},"PeriodicalIF":9.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143855952","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Robustness tests confirm the reliability of these findings. The GLS Policy promotes carbon reduction by improving bank loan supply and risk assessment capacities.

Seven environmental impact categories were screened in terms of ecosystem damage, resource and energy depletion, and human health damage to evaluate the actual environmental impacts of AIB reuse. The Willingness to Pay (WTP) and distance-to-target coupling methods were used to determine the willingness of Chinese society to accept AIB reuse projects. The results show that there is a significant difference in WTP between different environmental impact categories, with fossil fuel depletion having the lowest WTP (577.082 RMB/m<sup>2</sup>) and ozone depletion potential having the highest WTP (3.542 ∗ 10<sup>−3</sup> RMB /m<sup>2</sup>). Additionally, comparative analyses of building components and materials found that reinforced concrete had a significantly lower WTP than steel structures and floor slabs had a lower environmental benefit than other components. This study innovatively explores the feasibility and appropriateness of promoting AIB reuse in China from an environmental impact perspective. These findings can help to consider the extent to which different life cycle indicators in AIB reuse support decision-making and help to streamline the application of life cycle assessment in the field of renovation of existing buildings.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":309,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Impact Assessment Review","volume":"114 ","pages":"Article 107948"},"PeriodicalIF":9.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143855835","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The life cycle impact analysis was performed using LCA for Experts software, with a functional unit of 1 km of road pavement, 7.0 m wide. The LCA was performed as per the ISO 14040, ISO 14044, and ISO 21931-2. The results revealed that NH exhibits higher impacts than SH, with flexible pavements having 20–61 % higher impacts and rigid pavements showing a 5–9 % increase. The use phase (50–67 %) dominated the impact of both flexible and rigid pavements, primarily due to street lighting and fuel consumption, followed by the materials extraction and construction phase (27–46 %) and the end-of-life phase (2–3 %). Improvement scenarios demonstrated significant impact reduction potential. The suggested measures showed impacts reduction potential ranging from 19 % to 152 % on different impact categories for flexible pavements.

The reform promoted green innovation by increasing local attention to green development, which enhanced environmental oversight, increased scientific funding, and improved market integration. Environmental performance pressure amplified the reform's effect, with variations based on officials' age and turnover. A fiscal-administrative power mismatch diminished the reform's effect, influenced by financial decentralization and fiscal transparency.
