Still, new place-based ideas to improve sustainability are needed. Agroecological symbiosis (AES), a novel food system model, is an example of a suggested system-level change to attain sustainability targets; it is a symbiosis of food production and processing using renewable energy that uses its own feedstock. AES has already been found advantageous from the ecological and biophysical viewpoints, but a regional economic evaluation of the model is still lacking. Thus, the aim of our paper is to assess the regional economic impact of a possible systemic change in the food system using the network of agroecological symbiosis (NAES) as an example. We applied scenarios representing different ways of moving towards envisioned NAES models in Mäntsälä, Finland, and a computable general equilibrium model to evaluate the regional economic impact. According to our results, both regional economy and employment would increase, and the regional production base would diversify with NAES implementation applied to the region, but the extent of the benefits varies between scenarios. The scenario that includes change in both public and private food demand, production of bioenergy and utilization of by-products would cause the largest impacts. However, realizing NAES requires investments that may influence the actual implementation of such models. Nonetheless, a change towards NAES can promote an economically and spatially just transition to sustainability, as NAES seems to be economically most beneficial for rural areas.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":52374,"journal":{"name":"Geography and Sustainability","volume":"5 2","pages":"Pages 220-229"},"PeriodicalIF":9.7,"publicationDate":"2024-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666683924000129/pdfft?md5=16aa2286f2194b097df455f6d06039ac&pid=1-s2.0-S2666683924000129-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140308736","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

International and national governments set sustainability targets and implement corresponding measures. Nevertheless, critics of the globalized system claim that a territorial administrative scale is better suited to address sustainability issues. Yet, at the sub-national level, local authorities rarely apply a systemic environmental assessment to enhance their action plans. This paper employs a territorial life cycle assessment methodology to improve local environmental agri-food planning. The objective is to identify significant direct and indirect environmental hotspots, their origins, and formulate effective mitigation strategies. The methodology is applied to the administrative department of Finistere, a strategic agricultural region in North-Western France. Multiple environmental criteria including climate change, fossil resource scarcity, toxicity, and land use are modeled. The findings reveal that the primary environmental hotspots of the studied local food system arise from indirect sources, such as livestock feed or diesel consumption. Livestock reduction and organic farming conversion emerge as the most environmentally efficient strategies, resulting in a 25% decrease in the climate change indicator. However, the overall modeled impact reduction is insufficient following national objectives and remains limited for the land use indicator. These results highlight the innovative application of life cycle assessment led at a local level, offering insights for the further advancement of systematic and prospective local agri-food assessment. Additionally, they provide guidance for local authorities to enhance the sustainability of planning strategies.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":52374,"journal":{"name":"Geography and Sustainability","volume":"5 2","pages":"Pages 251-264"},"PeriodicalIF":9.7,"publicationDate":"2024-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666683924000117/pdfft?md5=6cfd25aab336c292acd85eb6a68a7276&pid=1-s2.0-S2666683924000117-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140308757","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One such species is the Javan Hawk-Eagle (JHE, <em>Nisaetus bartelsi),</em> a charismatic raptor found only on Java Island, Indonesia. Thus, it is crucial to develop an appropriate conservation strategy to preserve the species. Ecological niche modeling is considered a valuable tool for designing conservation plans for the JHE. We provide an ecological niche modeling approach and transfer its model to future climate scenarios for the JHE. We utilize various machine learning algorithms under sustainability and business-as-usual (BAU) scenarios for 2050. Additionally, we investigate the conservation vulnerability of the JHE, capturing multifaceted pressures on the species from climate dissimilarities and human disturbance variables. Our study reveals that the ensemble model performs exceptionally well, with temperature emerging as the most critical factor affecting the JHE distribution. This finding indicates that climate change will have a significant impact on the JHE species. Our results suggest that the JHE distribution will likely decrease by 28.41% and 40.16% from the current JHE distribution under sustainability and BAU scenarios, respectively. Furthermore, our study reveals high-potential refugia for future JHE, covering 7,596 km<sup>2</sup> (61%) under the sustainability scenario and only 4,403 km<sup>2</sup> (35%) under the BAU scenario. Therefore, effective management and planning, including habitat restoration, refugia preservation, habitat connectivity, and local community inclusivity, should be well-managed to achieve JHE conservation targets.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":52374,"journal":{"name":"Geography and Sustainability","volume":"5 2","pages":"Pages 241-250"},"PeriodicalIF":9.7,"publicationDate":"2024-02-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666683924000099/pdfft?md5=93ccf066518d6ad6994348d748350864&pid=1-s2.0-S2666683924000099-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140308737","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, traditional urban thermal environment assessments typically relied on simple linear integration of associated indicators, often neglecting the spatial interaction effect. To explore the spatial interaction among the three elements, this study proposes an accessibility-based urban thermal environment assessment framework. Using Zhengzhou, a rapidly urbanizing city, as an example, remotely sensed images from three periods (2010, 2015 and 2020) were applied to extract urban green space (UGS) and hot island area (HIA). An improved two-step floating catchment area (2SFCA) method and bivariate local Moran’s <em>I</em> were employed to explore whether residents’ clustering locations are more likely to access cooling service or to be exposed to heat risk. The results demonstrate that the UGS in the city has been expanding, whereas the HIA shrank within the inner city in 2015 and then increased in 2020. Even though the urban thermal environment may have improved in the last decade, the spatial interaction among the residents, cooling service and heat risk area could be exacerbated. Spatial autocorrelation shows an increase in locations that are disadvantageous for resident congregation. Even when sufficient cooling services were provided, residents in these areas could still be exposed to high heat risk. The developed urban thermal environment framework provides a novel insight into the residents’ heat risk exposure and cooling service accessibility, and the findings could assist urban planners in targeting the improvement of extra heat exposure risk locations.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":52374,"journal":{"name":"Geography and Sustainability","volume":"5 3","pages":"Pages 329-342"},"PeriodicalIF":9.7,"publicationDate":"2024-02-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666683924000130/pdfft?md5=c9969adf93f3047d9fbc484f87c85bee&pid=1-s2.0-S2666683924000130-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140466214","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

STERE requires selecting tailored restorative modes, setting clear restorative targets and reference ecosystems, applying a systematic-thinking approach, and implementing a continuous monitoring program at all process stages to achieve a resilient trajectory.

Global climate change has been suggested to be driving a worldwide increase in flooding risk. However, owing to insufficient evidence, the quantitative correlation between flooding and climate change remains ill-defined. We present a long time series of maximum flood discharge in the YRB dating back to 1843 compiled from historical documents and instrument measurements. Variations in yearly maximum flood discharge show distinct periods: a dramatic decreasing period from 1843 to 1950, and an oscillating gentle decreasing from 1950 to 2021, with the latter period also showing increasing more extreme floods. A Mann-Kendall test analysis suggests that the latter period can be further split into two distinct sub-periods: an oscillating gentle decreasing period from 1950 to 2000, and a clear recent increasing period from 2000 to 2021. We further predict that climate change will cause an ongoing remarkable increase in future flooding risk and an ∼44.4 billion US dollars loss of floods in the YRB in 2100.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":52374,"journal":{"name":"Geography and Sustainability","volume":"5 2","pages":"Pages 193-199"},"PeriodicalIF":9.7,"publicationDate":"2024-01-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S266668392400004X/pdfft?md5=c720808b131fa2f6b3d69b298dd7de1e&pid=1-s2.0-S266668392400004X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140180711","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
