Lagrangian analysis of two flavours of Central European heatwaves: Formation under omega blocking versus initiation by subtropical ridges

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We investigate whether Central European heatwaves (HWs) forming under omega blocking differ from those enabled by subtropical ridges, in terms of both air‐mass origin and processes warming air parcels along their way. Using ERA5‐based backward trajectories and a Lagrangian temperature anomaly decomposition, we identify significant differences in the ...

Wavelet covariance approach to measure convective boundary‐layer structure

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This study introduces a wavelet‐based framework that applies the Haar discrete wavelet transform (DWT) to radiosonde profiles of potential temperature and water vapor mixing ratio for diagnosing convective boundary‐layer (CBL) structure. The method objectively identifies key CBL parameters, including the surface‐layer height, entrainment zone depth ...

Photonic nanovoids for tailored optoelectronic response in silicon solar cells

open access: yesResponsive Materials, EarlyView.
Optoelectronic workflow followed by experimental validation, demonstrating state‐of‐the‐art efficiency gains. Abstract As crystalline silicon (c‐Si) solar cells become thinner to reduce cost and weight, the optical design principles that govern light trapping (LT) must evolve.

How Passive Acoustic and Traditional Monitoring Estimate Bird Diversity Across Habitats

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
We compared traditional bird counts (PC) with passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) in a heterogeneous Alpine landscape. PAM recorded twice as many species, with a strong correlation between species richness and the bird counts (rs = 0.71); however, there were significant differences depending on habitat type.

Quantification of flash flood peaks using computer simulation for potential hill torrents of Pakistan: A modeling study

open access: yesRiver, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates rainfall runoff behavior of five major torrential Nullahs' of Dera Ghazi Khan (D. G. Khan) for flash flood events. The integration, and fusion of satellite‐based meteorological, topographical, and pedo‐transferred function's (PTF) derived soil hydraulic datasets at 250 m grid size substantially proves a viable approach ...

Climate Crisis, Human Mobility and Security Challenges in the MENA Region: Implications for Sustainable Development and Regional Stability

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the interplay between climate change, violent conflict and forced migration in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), focusing on asylum flows to the European Union (EU). By integrating high‐resolution climate, conflict and socioeconomic data spanning 2000 to 2023, we develop a comprehensive empirical framework to ...

Regional Sustainability Assessment Under Risk and Uncertainty: A Water–Energy–Food Based Framework

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Regional sustainability assessment requires integrated structures that can examine the interactions between Water–Energy–Food (WEF) systems, socio‐economic risk conditions, and performance outcomes under uncertainty. This study proposes a multidimensional framework that combines a suitability index, composite sustainability indicators ...

Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN) Reports Between 2018 and 2023: Malmquist Index Analysis for the Performance of OECD Countries

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In 2015, the United Nations (UN) adopted the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), calling for urgent action to end poverty, reduce inequality, and secure a sustainable future. Within this global agenda, the commitment of the Organization for Economic Co‐operation and Development (OECD) is particularly significant given its institutional ...

Assessing the Performance of European Union Regions in the “People” and “Prosperity” Pillars of the SDGs

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper addresses the gap in subnational assessments of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by benchmarking the performance of European Union NUTS‐2 regions in the People and Prosperity pillars of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

Synergies of Geospatial and Digital Technologies for Sustainable Rural Development: A Data‐Driven Analysis of Topics and Novelty Assessment

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The adoption of geospatial and digital technologies, including Geographic Information Systems (GIS), Building Information Modelling (BIM), Digital Twins, the Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI), is increasingly recognised as key enablers of sustainable development.
