However, the NRR's proposed indicators for forest restoration have raised concerns regarding the lack of socioeconomic considerations and their applicability across diverse forest contexts, including the Mediterranean. This study evaluates expert perceptions of thirty-four indicators (NRR, scientific literature, and socioeconomic ones) through a Delphi consultation with over sixty forest restoration experts from diverse disciplinary and sociodemographic backgrounds in Spain. Our findings reveal that deadwood (both lying and standing) accumulation was deemed the least relevant NRR indicator by experts (mean ± SD: 3.3 ± 1.2 on a Likert scale) due to concerns about increased wildfire risk, whereas native tree species dominance (4.3 ± 0.8) and tree species diversity (4.3 ± 0.9) were the most highly rated ones. Additionally, 93 % of experts agreed that socioeconomic indicators should be incorporated into restoration monitoring, with positive public perception of restoration (4.5 ± 0.8) being the most valued metric. Experts also highlighted the need for indicators assessing ecosystem resilience, such as natural regeneration, fire risk and soil erosion, which are currently absent from the NRR. Building on these insights, we propose a flexible, goal-oriented framework for selecting restoration indicators, balancing harmonization with regional adaptation, and highlighting indicators that evaluate multiple restoration goals. This approach aims to enhance the effectiveness of forest restoration monitoring in Spain and other southern European regions while contributing to the development of national restoration plans.</p>","PeriodicalId":356,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Environmental Management","volume":"394 ","pages":"127673"},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2025-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145342388","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}

This study analyzes in-depth the effects of government spending, economic growth, and population density on CO<sub>2</sub> emissions based on two centuries of data (1800-2022). The research seeks to build an empirical foundation for U.S. sustainable development strategies by assessing the link between these macro-level determinants and carbon intensity through the lens of the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC). The method of the study is based on the principles of econometric robustness and methodological reliability, utilizing the long period of the data set as well as four different long-term estimation techniques, including Augmented ARDL, FMOLS, DOLS, and CCR. The study confirms the EKC hypothesis for the U.S., spanning more than two centuries of data. It is suggested that government spending, when strategically allocated, can have emissions-reducing effects. On the other hand, it has been determined that population density has a structural and permanent effect that increases CO<sub>2</sub> emissions.

There is considerable debate on the merits of this policy given its impact on ecosystem services. Our objective was to assess the impacts of grassland afforestation on three ecosystem services (microclimate moderation, belowground carbon sequestration, water regulation) at the scale of an individual tree. We collected data in the Southern Great Plains of North America during 2022-23 and used mixed models to analyze the data. We determined that individual Juniperus virginiana (hereafter, Juniperus) trees in grasslands create cooler, wetter microclimates particularly during hot, dry conditions. We found no statistical evidence that individual Juniperus increases soil organic carbon at 7.5 cm depth. Despite water infiltration being highest within individual Juniperus, high variability suggested low predictability. Despite these findings, it remains unclear whether grassland afforestation leads to regional cooling. Further, our findings suggest grassland afforestation may not increase belowground carbon sequestration, and water regulation at the ecosystem level but this remains speculative. Despite the ecological benefits of trees moderating microclimate in grasslands, it is critical to recognize that large-scale woody plant expansion threatens many ecosystem services. The benefits of establishing trees in grasslands may not outweigh the negative impacts to these ecosystems. It is critical that in regions where afforestation projects are proposed or where woody plant expansion is occurring to consider the ecological and societal impacts of such policy to ensure sustainable management.</p>","PeriodicalId":356,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Environmental Management","volume":"394 ","pages":"127670"},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2025-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145336115","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}

The objective of this study was to develop a new adsorbent by physically binding powdered activated carbon water treatment residuals (PAC-WTR) and steel slag for Cu removal from stormwater. The generated adsorbent (PAC-SS) was characterized using SEM-EDS, which confirmed the uniform coating of PAC-WTR on steel slag, while FTIR analysis before and after adsorption identified key functional groups involved in Cu binding. Batch adsorption experiments showed rapid Cu removal within the first 3 h, with equilibrium reached in 12-24 h, and higher PAC-SS dosages enhancing removal efficiency. The presence of deicing chemicals (NaCl, CaCl<sub>2</sub> and MgCl<sub>2</sub>) in the range of 0.001-0.1 M had a limited effect on Cu removal by PAC-SS. Coexisting humic acid, Pb<sup>2+</sup>, and Zn<sup>2+</sup> reduced Cu removal efficiency by up to 29.5 %, 25.1 %, and 7.9 %, respectively.
