The Yellow River Basin serves as a critical ecological barrier and economic corridor in China, playing a pivotal role in national ecological security and sustainable development. This study develops a comprehensive evaluation framework grounded in th...

Microplastics (MPs) are increasingly recognized as emerging contaminants in aquatic environments; however, their occurrence and fate in tropical wastewater treatment systems remain poorly understood. This study provides the first inland–island...

Climate change and increasing water scarcity are driving the need for resilient and fit-for-purpose urban water management. This study presents a case from Lisbon, Portugal, where twenty-one groundwater sources were evaluated as potential alternative...

The use of floating wetlands has been receiving increased attention as a minimally invasive method for oil spill remediation, but the species of vegetation incorporated in floating wetlands may influence the success of oil degradation. Therefore, a f...

Urban areas face increasing flood risks due to climate change, intensified rainfall events, and high impervious surface coverage. Blue-Green Roofs (BGR) have emerged as a nature-based solution to retain stormwater, while Smart BGR systems integrate a...

The rapid expansion of the electrode foil industry has led to the generation of large volumes of acidic wastewater containing strong acids (sulfuric and hydrochloric) and metal ions (such as aluminum and copper). The generated wastewater poses seriou...

The Yellow River Basin (YRB) is a vital water source and an essential ecological barrier in northern China. Currently, it faces pressing challenges related to water resource security and displays pronounced disparities in regional economic developmen...

Foundation engineering is an essential preliminary stage in high-rise building construction, as it provides the structural load-bearing capacity of the building. Since foundation structures often extend into the subsurface layers, excavation becomes...

Rapid urban growth and the expansion of impervious surfaces have intensified environmental issues such as flooding, water pollution, and urban heat islands. Permeable pavements have emerged as a green infrastructure solution to mitigate these impacts...

Increasing rainfall intensity and altered temporal patterns due to climate change pose significant threats to pedestrian safety in highly urbanized areas. Reliable pedestrian safety assessment is therefore essential for evacuation planning and flood...
