Researchers have debated whether centralized or decentralized sewerage infrastructure should be adopted. Considering the trade-offs in both approaches, a balanced integration of decentralization and centralization with an emphasis on implementing the infrastructure at an optimal scale is suggested. In the present work, the trade-offs between these configurations through various sustainability and resilience parameters are discussed first. Further, a novel methodology is developed to prevent mega-centralization in cities, by proposing appropriate sizing of the sewerage zones for a city or a region from sustainability and resilience perspectives. The study demonstrates the application of the proposed method for sewerage planning in new cities. Also, it demonstrates the usage of the method for existing cities sewerage infrastructure across four urban local bodies, namely Pune, Mumbai, Navi Mumbai, and Pimpri Chinchwad. While Pune, Navi Mumbai and Pimpri Chinchwad have distributed capacities of Sewage Treatment Plants (STPs) across the city, Mumbai is observed to have highly centralized and highly decentralized STPs. By assessing the deviations of installed STP capacities from the proposed sizing, a discussion is made regarding retrofitting options for sewerage infrastructure. This work is significant for the urban planning of sewerage infrastructure, is relevant for diverse stakeholders, and can serve as a wastewater management strategy to achieve sustainability and resilience.</p>","PeriodicalId":356,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Environmental Management","volume":"387 ","pages":"125904"},"PeriodicalIF":8.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144155371","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}

However, limited research integrates these factors to assess heat inequalities, which is crucial for identifying vulnerable areas most susceptible to urban heat. Therefore, this study examines heat inequality in six Chinese megacities by mapping neighborhood-level building morphologies, focusing on building density and height and integrating socioeconomic data. The analysis shows that neighborhoods of high density & low-rise (HDLR) and high density & mid-rise (HDMR) experience higher normalized land surface temperatures (NLSTs) compared to others. In contrast, medium density & high-rise (MDHR) and low density & high-rise (LDHR) have the lowest NLSTs. Higher population density and lower NDVI in older neighborhoods lead to more anthropogenic heat emissions and limited cooling, resulting in higher NLST in areas with the same building morphology here. Additionally, NLST generally decreases as house prices rise, with undeveloped areas showing slightly higher NLST due to lower NDVI. Consequently, the neighborhood of HDLR, especially those with older buildings and lower house prices, are the most vulnerable to urban heat in Chinese megacities and we emphasize mitigating this inequality through increased urban greenery.</p>","PeriodicalId":356,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Environmental Management","volume":"387 ","pages":"125967"},"PeriodicalIF":8.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144155373","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}

To understand the effects of SLR and freshwater management on landscape carbon (C) exchange, we measured the net ecosystem exchange (NEE) of CO₂ between subtropical wetland ecosystems and the atmosphere along a dynamic salinity gradient. Ecosystems were representative of freshwater marl prairies, brackish ecotones, and saline scrub mangrove forests in the southeastern Everglades. Patterns in NEE explained the landward movement of coastal wetlands, a process observed over the last 70 years. The capacity to capture C was greatest along the coast in the scrub mangrove (-294 ± 0.02 g C m^-2 y^-1) and declined inland into marl prairies (-47 ± 0.03 g C m^-2 y^-1). Low resilience to current conditions was evident in marl prairies, a result of the legacy impacts of water diversion throughout the greater Everglades. Although the southeastern Everglades captured approximately 115 metric tons of C in 2021, if the ecotone continues to advance at 25 m y^-1 over the next century, we project a 12 % increase (16 mt C y^-1) in net CO₂ capture. Results emphasize that initial functional responses to changes in conditions may not accurately represent long-term outcomes and highlight the role of brackish ecotone communities as the frontline for climate- and management-induced shifts in coastal ecosystem structure and function.

This rare species has been observed in deciduous forests, but we lack conclusive landscape-scale management recommendations for continental Europe. We therefore tracked the movements of 32 adult Leisler's bats from three local colonies with miniaturised Global Positioning System (GPS) loggers in two consecutive summers in a landscape that consists of a mosaic of woodland, forest plantations and farmland in Germany and in which wind energy production is expanding. We then analysed the habitat preferences of bats and how they interact with local wind turbines using an integrated step selection function in which we differentiated between roosting, commuting and foraging. Most spatial positions of Leisler's bats overlapped with the rotor-swept zone of local wind turbines, indicating that this species may be vulnerable at turbines. Further, Leisler's bats preferred oak woodlands and urban spaces, but avoided coniferous forests. For roosting, Leisler's bats preferred urban areas, probably because old trees were available along lanes or in churchyards. We call for careful landscape-scale management of oak woodlands and urban green spaces, particularly the preservation of old trees to support populations of Leisler's bats and other forest-affiliated bats. Furthermore, wind turbines should be sited well away from Leisler's bat colonies, as the flight altitude of Leisler's bats overlaps with the operating range of wind turbines, putting them at risk of being attracted to wind turbines during foraging trips.</p>","PeriodicalId":356,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Environmental Management","volume":"387 ","pages":"125753"},"PeriodicalIF":8.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144155393","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}

However, public resistance remains the primary barrier to the long-term and widespread implementation of any water reuse initiative. Hence, it is paramount to gain exhaustive insights into the motivations and mechanisms behind voluntary RTG adoption behavior, contributing to devising more impactful strategies for promoting such initiatives. Although environmental psychology has laid a robust groundwork in understanding pro-environmental behaviors and identifying entry points of behavioral intervention, a notable gap persists in RTG research, particularly in the Middle East, such as Iran. Hence, this research sought to explore the psychosocial drivers underlying households' RTG adoption through introducing an innovative theoretical framework that integrates the theory of planned behavior with the norm activation model, further extended by perceived risk and anticipated emotions (guilt and pride). A questionnaire was developed based on an extensive literature review and distributed in Isfahan City via an online self-administered survey, utilizing a blend of convenience sampling and cluster sampling techniques (N = 375). Data analysis was conducted using PLS-SEM with SmartPLS software, revealing that: (1) the framework explained 74.7 % and 73.3 % of the variance in intention and behavior; (2) attitude manifested as the most significant determinant of intention, followed by moral norms, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control (PBC), and perceived risk; and (3) behavior was predicted by intention, perceived risk, and PBC. Beyond its novel theoretical contributions, the findings laid a solid foundation for policies promoting RTG adoption: (1) launching awareness campaigns to raise public knowledge of water scarcity and its associated risks; (2) enhancing individuals' sense of control through financial incentives and education programs; and (3) emphasizing the benefits of RTG adoption and the moral duty to protect water resources.</p>","PeriodicalId":356,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Environmental Management","volume":"387 ","pages":"125867"},"PeriodicalIF":8.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144155396","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}

In India, over 80 % of agricultural land relies on rainfed systems, making it particularly vulnerable to uncertainties in rainfall, often leading to crop failures in the arid and semi-arid regions of western India. This study utilizes the Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI) to analyze drought characteristics-frequency, duration, severity, and intensity-using India Meteorological Department (IMD) based rainfall and temperature data from 1981 to 2023 across five agro-climatic zones. Seasonal and annual drought trends were assessed with the Modified Mann-Kendall test, while cross-wavelet transform analysis explored the connections between global climatic phenomena and regional droughts, focusing on atmospheric drivers like the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD). Findings indicate that over 35 % of the study area experiences long-term drought (SPEI12). Short-term drought (SPEI01) is prevalent in the Central Plateau and Hills (Z02), whereas long-term droughts primarily affect the Gujarat Plains and Hills (Z04) and the Western Dry Region (Z05). A statistically significant increasing trend in drought occurrence (at the 95 % confidence level) was observed across all seasons except the monsoon. Throughout most of the study region-excluding a few scattered pockets-the monsoonal trend showed a positive SPEI, indicating an overall increase in rainfall during the monsoon season since 1981. The analysis also revealed a significant correlation between drought events and the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) phenomenon, with droughts being more strongly influenced by different ENSO phases than by the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD). Furthermore, the study identified distinct spatial patterns of drought occurrence, trends, and their global climatic drivers across various agroclimatic zones in India's arid and semi-arid regions.
