ABSTRACT This study examines how industrial structure is associated with ecological sustainability in Nordic countries over the period 2001–2022. The analysis focuses on the share of small‐scale industries in the industrial system and examines its association with ecological sustainability, measured by the load capacity factor.

Abstract As tunnel construction advances in lengths and depths, the construction of tunnels in high geothermal environments has become increasingly common, raising significant fire risks. In this study, a 1:20 scale model tunnel test platform was constructed to investigate the effects of a high geothermal environment on fire behavior in tunnels during ...

Carbon emission assessment of tunnel infrastructures: From construction to operation
This study develops a lifecycle carbon accounting framework for tunnel infrastructures, covering design, construction, operation, maintenance, and dismantling. Applied to a subsea tunnel case, the framework reveals the carbon emission distribution among four typical tunnel types and highlights potential carbon offset methods for low‐carbon tunnel ...

Topography constrains the climatic response of treeline migration in Taiwan's subalpine forests
Treelines are moving upslope, but the rates and drivers differ among different regions, globally. Many studies have examined the relationship between treeline movement and climate change, particularly rising temperature, while the role of topographical factors has received much less attention, despite the longstanding recognition of its importance.

Where early successional forests are more flammable than old‐growth forests, forested landscapes are vulnerable to shifting into ‘fire traps' through positive feedbacks, where fire leads to more fire. These feedbacks are amplified by increased flammability driven by climate change, the presence of non‐native flammable plant species, and slowed ...

Global analysis suggests nitrogen deposition as an underestimated driver of vegetation greening
The local effects of atmospheric nitrogen deposition on plants are well established, yet a global empirical analysis of nitrogen deposition effects on vegetation dynamics is missing. Here, we assess how nitrogen deposition, alongside other global change drivers such as fire, and changes in temperature, precipitation and human land use, is related to ...

Combining paleoecology and modeling to explore cascading disturbances in forest ecosystems
Climate‐induced cascading disturbance interactions pose a major challenge to the sustainable provision of forest ecosystem services to society. Developing a deeper understanding and enhanced capacity to simulate these interactions is essential for identifying disturbance‐induced tipping points in forest ecosystems, and for improving management in ...
