AI‐Driven Circular Construction Waste Management for Advancing Sustainable Development
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Construction and demolition waste (C&DW) represents up to 40% of global solid waste, posing a significant barrier to achieving circular economy (CE) objectives and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 11 and SDG 12. However, construction waste management (CWM) systems remain constrained by fragmented data environments ...

Evaluation of Sustainable Urban Design With a Focus on Spatial Organization and Climatic Analysis
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The urban heat island (UHI) effect increases with the growth of cities and population. This situation triggers global climate change, and cities are negatively affected by this situation. In this study, five provinces (Antalya, Gaziantep, Bursa, Kayseri, and Erzurum) located in different climate zones in Turkey were selected as samples ...

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Urban expansion is a major driver of habitat fragmentation, shrinking wildlife habitat, and restricting wildlife movements and activity patterns. In this novel environment, species must adapt to the new composition of wildlife communities. For example, red squirrels Sciurus vulgaris are commonly found in urban environments, while their potential ...
