Conventional dispatch models, which are primarily focused on cost minimization, prove insufficient to address the multidimensional challenges of a Just Energy Transition. In order to address this discrepancy, the present paper puts forth the Economic...
Balancing tourism development with ecological integrity remains a central challenge in the management of protected areas. This study proposes a spatial framework that integrates the Outdoor Recreation Suitability Index (ORSI) and the Landscape Ecolog...
Under the dual pressures of global warming and high-density urbanization, extreme heatwaves have emerged as a critical ecological risk constraining the sustainable development of Chinese urban agglomerations. Based on multi-source remote sensing, met...
For decades, Saudi Arabia has relied heavily on oil revenues to support its economic growth. While this strategy brought substantial benefits, oil prices and global demand remain volatile, and oil itself is a non-renewable resource. These realities r...
The increasing reliance on motorised traffic has led to significant environmental, health and urban mobility challenges for pedestrians and cyclists. Despite growing awareness of the benefits of active travel, including improved public health, reduce...
Backyard activities (BAs) constitute a traditional rural food production strategy, although their sustainability-related outcomes remain underexplored in rural contexts. Our objective is to analyze how BAs in rural communities in the municipality of...
Given a turbulent work environment, employee resilience, defined as the capacity to bounce back, adapt, and even flourish at work in the face of challenging situations, has been receiving increasing attention. Previous studies have demonstrated the p...
Electric vehicles (EVs) represent a key pathway toward reducing greenhouse gas emissions and fossil fuel dependence. Although significant advances have been achieved in energy storage technologies for EVs, a structured comparative assessment that joi...
Urban integration can lower average pollution, yet environmental benefits may be unevenly shared across cities within the same urban agglomeration. Such within-agglomeration disparities can weaken joint prevention and control, sustain unequal health...
The construction sector is responsible for a significant share of greenhouse gas emissions in Europe, making the decarbonisation of the existing building stock a critical priority. In this context, Digital Building Logbooks (DBLs) are increasingly pr...
This study investigates the impact of green organizational support and green self-efficacy on promoting employees’ pro-environmental behaviors, framed within Social Cognitive Theory and Social Exchange Theory. The direct and indirect impacts of...
Solar Radiation Modification (SRM) is increasingly discussed as a potential supplement to climate-change mitigation, yet public and stakeholder judgments remain sensitive to knowledge, framing, and perceived risks. We examined how a structured univer...
This study investigates the feasibility of using calcined pumice as a sustainable precursor for geopolymer production. Natural pumice was calcined at different temperatures (600, 750, and 900 °C) and durations (1, 2, and 4 h). The effects of calc...
The Indian Himalayan Region is an important ecological location, but it is now suffering from serious air pollution due to activities like vehicular emissions, industrial activities, biomass burning, and regional atmospheric circulation, which have l...
This study investigates how integrating the 4PADAFE instructional design methodology with generative artificial intelligence (GAI) tools helps develop innovative, pedagogically sound digital learning environments in higher education. To meet the dema...
