<sec></sec><sec><p> Sustainable development depends on the integration of economy, society, and environment. Yet, escalating environmental challenges pose threats to both society economy. Despite progress in addressing issues promote sustainability, knowledge gaps scientific research, technological advancement, engineering practice, policy persist. In this review, we aim narrow these by proposing innovation-based solutions refining existing paradigms. Reviewing past research actions, first elucidate evolution sustainability science essence sustainable its assessment. Secondly, summarize current major issues, including global warming climate change, biodiversity loss, land degradation desertification, pollution, as well their relationships with achievement Development Goals (SDGs). Subsequently, review critically evaluates role innovations science, technology, engineering, (iSTEP) synergies advancing SDGs. While sequential may vary based specific contexts or scenarios within iSTEP framework, each component reinforces others, fostering continuous improvement. Finally, offers recommendations future perspectives for formulating roadmaps. Recommendations include a vision promoting interdisciplinary collaboration, encouraging transboundary cooperation among stakeholders endeavors.</p></sec>

Spatio-temporal variations in sediment phosphorus dynamics in a large shallow lake: Mechanisms and impacts of redox-related internal phosphorus loading

The Science of The Total Environment, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 907, P. 168044 - 168044

The role of redox-related sediment phosphorus (P) release in shallow polymictic lakes remains poorly understood. Our previous studies large and Lake Peipsi suggested the importance P internal loading. In current study, we explored validity this hypothesis by also considering organic (Org-P). We analysed spatio-temporal changes diffusive flux forms determined fractionation nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy summer 2021. Using 1997-2021 data, computed load (IL) two methods studied their relationships with several water quality variables. Anoxia surfaces progressed an increase temperature during summer. long-term, IL estimates were similar (mean values: 315 346 mg/m2/year) correlated predicted anoxia (AApred). A contribution iron-bound (Fe-P) to was indicated positive correlation Fe-P orthophosphate short-term studies. No evidence found for Org-P, which contradicts common tendency attribute loads largely Org-P eutrophic lakes. Nevertheless, matter seemed support reductive dissolution, because seasonal those Fe-P, content negatively over different sites. Complex bottom morphology hydrology affected spatial distribution masked between variables release. Finally, reflected significant AApred associated Secchi depth transparency, chlorophyll a concentration, biomass phytoplankton cyanobacteria. To our knowledge, is first time when such direct provided lake.
