Programmed unmanned aerial vehicles show great potential for monitoring marine megafauna in specific areas of interest

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Targeted conservation measures are contingent on robust knowledge of spatio‐temporal animal distribution in areas of interest. We explore unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) transect monitoring as a novel method for standardized digital aerial surveys of marine megafauna by investigating the fine‐resolution spatio‐temporal distribution of harbour porpoises ...

Seasonal variations of microplastics and plastisphere bacterial communities along Wuhan Reaches of Yangtze River

River, EarlyView.
Abstract Microplastics are widely distributed in aquatic environment and serve as habitats for microbial communities, which pause threats to the ecosystem. In this study, the seasonal variations in microplastic abundance and biogeography of their associated plastisphere were studied from 14 sites along the Wuhan Reaches of Yangtze River across spring ...

Can Happiness Be Sustainable? Monitoring Global Consumption Footprints From 2015 to 2024

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding how happiness relates to resource consumption requires considering not only domestic environmental impacts but also the broader transnational effects embedded in global trade. To address this gap, this study introduces the Consumption Footprint–Happiness Ratio (CHR), a visual analytic metric that captures the intensity of ...

Leveraging Life Cycle Assessment for Informing Packaging Eco‐Design and Eco‐Modulation

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Eco‐modulation is designed to promote the adoption of eco‐design. However, in practice, its application is mostly concentrated on end‐of‐life (EoL) optimization. This study addresses the gap by proposing a framework to assess product–packaging systems as integrated units throughout the full life cycle.
