Spatiotemporal variations of eco-environmental vulnerability in Shiyang River Basin, China

Ecological Indicators, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 158, С. 111327 - 111327

Eco-environmental vulnerability reflects the unfavorable degree of ecological environment presented by external disruptions. The Shiyang River Basin, as a typical desert interior river basin in Northwest China, plays crucial roles. Exploring eco-environmental vulnerability's spatial and temporal evolution is vital to maintaining ecosystem stability. We utilized sensitivity-resilience-press (SRP) model create complete evaluation index system using meteorological, remote sensing, statistical data. cloud theory improved analytic hierarchy process (CM-AHP) was used calculate subjective weights, entropy weight method (EWM) estimate objective comprehensive weights indicators were determined least square method, which combined weights. From 2000 2020, spatial-temporal features research area analyzed. results indicate that surface temperature, land use, monthly precipitation are key factors impacting state vulnerability. basin's potential-vulnerable light-vulnerable areas predominantly located south southwest, whereas northern eastern classified severe-vulnerable extreme-vulnerable. Extreme-vulnerable declined from 8.59% 4.3% while climbed 2.11% 8.08% 2020. whole has evolved benign direction. can serve theoretical groundwork for restoration Basin's long-term development.

Environmentally Sustainable Green Roof Design for Energy Demand Reduction

Buildings, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 13(7), С. 1846 - 1846

Опубликована: Июль 21, 2023

Green roofs are artificial ecosystems that provide a nature-based solution to environmental problems such as climate change and the urban heat island effect by absorbing solar radiation helping alleviate environmental, economic, social problems. offer many benefits in terms of water conservation well energy costs. This work proposes design an extensive environmentally sustainable green roof for Faculty Engineering building Bilbao. The will be made from composting food waste generated building’s own canteen. Therefore, main objective this study is calculate efficiency roof, evaluate its thermal performance, quantify impact implementation would have on consumption comfort users. results obtained confirm has positive summer much greater when there shown difference savings between dry (−53.7%) wet (−84.2%) scenarios. data show winter differences non-vegetated not significant. In case, estimated penalty (0.015 kWh/m2) 10% gain.

Green Infrastructure and Climate Resilience of Urban Neighborhoods: What Can the Citizens Do Together?

Buildings, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 15(3), С. 446 - 446

Опубликована: Янв. 31, 2025

This study began from the assumption that community self-organization, characterized by independent action without external control, could be a suitable approach to developing green infrastructure and strengthening climate resilience in urban neighborhoods Serbia. The employed mixed methods verify this assumption, combining technical case citizen survey analysis. Technical simulations demonstrated self-organized interventions on contribute resilience, even with unfavorable conditions. However, uncovered significant social constraints cannot resolved within community, including perceived lack of internal capacity; belief primacy actors; moderate cohesion level; platforms; limited understanding interconnections between change, role infrastructure; environmental literacy; unclear collective benefits. Based these findings, proposed multi-level multi-phase model for improving neighborhood infrastructure. emphasizes participatory collaboration applies current context Serbian neighborhoods.
