River Sand and Gravel Mining: Global Drivers, Impacts, and Pathways for Sustainable Management
Abstract River sand and gravel are mined worldwide at volumes that now rival their natural replenishment, yet quantitative knowledge of this mining activity and its consequences lags far behind many other global environmental pressures. We synthesize 411 peer‐reviewed studies published since 1974 within a new Driver‐to‐Management Pathway for ...

Abstract Despite advancements in forecasting and warning technologies, some communities still face barriers to accessing essential weather and climate information. These gaps disproportionately affect individuals with limited digital access, unstable housing, or limited English proficiency, leading to uneven impacts during high‐impact weather events ...

Seasonal changes of phytoplankton in shallow floodplain lake [PDF]
The study was conducted to determine the influence of environmental parameters on phytoplankton structure and dynamics in the shallow lake (Lake Kopačko, 200-250 ha, depth 2-5 m) within the Kopački Rit floodplain. The investigation was carried out in different seasonal and hydrological conditions during winter, late spring and summer period ...

Floods From Space: How Remote Sensing, AI, and Cloud Platforms Are Reshaping Disaster Risk Reduction
ABSTRACT Flooding remains one of the most damaging climate‐related hazards globally, yet flood remote sensing has historically developed largely along sensor‐specific pathways. This review addresses the need for a systematic and decision‐oriented synthesis of how space‐borne remote sensing has evolved toward integrated flood monitoring and disaster ...

ABSTRACT Flood related damages are escalating due to compounded climate change impacts and ongoing urban development along floodplains. As a result, there have been increased calls to improve integration between land‐use planning and flood risk management to resolve conflicting policy objectives and minimise increasing flood risk. However, how and what

ABSTRACT The ecosystem of the Manas River Basin, composed of mountains, oases, and deserts, constitutes an ideal natural laboratory for investigating surface processes and environmental evolution in arid regions. Elucidating the provenance, transport dynamics, and climate response mechanisms of surface sediments in this system is critical for advancing

ABSTRACT Aquaculture has become one of the fastest‐growing food production sectors in Bangladesh and contributes significantly to food security, nutrition, livelihoods and the national economy. In Bangladesh, aquaculture mainly relies on the culture of major carps, catfishes and shrimp, which are also widely farmed across Asia and other parts of the ...

Assessment of Small‐Meshed Gillnets for Sustainable Fisheries in the Chobe River, Namibia
ABSTRACT Small‐meshed gillnets are restricted by the regulatory framework of the Namibian Inland Fisheries Act of 2003. This is mainly because smaller meshed nets are presumably selective towards juveniles of the large‐growing cichlid species. Thus, the aim of this study was to assess the impacts of smaller meshed gillnets (<73 mm) on the fish stocks ...
