Controlling carbon emissions through modeling and optimization: addressing an earth system and environment challenge

Modeling Earth Systems and Environment, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 10(5), P. 6003 - 6011

Abstract This study aims to analyze the trend of carbon dioxide CO 2 emissions from various sources in Pakistan between 1990 and 2020 effectively model underlying dynamics emissions. The design fitting historical data reveal significant trends patterns, highlighting alarming increase These findings underscore necessity for robust policy interventions mitigate achieve sustainable development goals (SDGs). work can contribute addressing challenges recent plans targeting global warming climate emergency. By controlling these parameters, mean reversion be managed, allowing control increasing rate regions threatened by change. O-U provides a valuable framework understanding stochastic nature emissions, offering insights into persistence variability emission levels over time. optimized parametric thresholds model, after synchronizing it with real data, that challenge cannot naturally resolved serious are highly desired. include measures improve air quality, combat

Towards an Explicit Understanding of Network Governance in Urban Forestry Management: A Case Study of Portland (OR), USA

Sustainability, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 17(9), P. 4028 - 4028

As the climate continues to warm, and municipal leaders look for cost-effective timely approaches urban sustainability, one increasingly sought-out approach is use of tree canopy cool neighborhoods. Despite widespread efforts expand in cities, an overwhelming body evidence suggests that green space declining across U.S., yet little known about factors propel these changes. Understanding institutional governance systems can help identify opportunities slow consistent declines. Using social network analysis (SNA) metrics, we examined stakeholder roles power structures decision-making processes within Portland, Oregon’s forest management. Our results reveal a highly decentralized forestry (density = 0.0079), with weak cohesion (5.4%) among 162 stakeholders. Moving forward, while may face obstacles from conflicting interests community interagency groups, transforming models at all levels will require developing periodic, collaborative management plans address nature-based planning challenges. These documents should strongly emphasize not only prioritization equity-related ordinances but also optimization eco-literacy awareness through virtual reality (VR) technology. novel approach, immersive simulations demonstrate practical potential showcasing benefits outreach consensus-building.
