Food, Energy, and Health Implications of Agrivoltaic Farms
Abstract The benefits of agrivoltaics (AV) are documented, with empirical evidence for their suitability for collocated energy generation, crop cultivation, and water savings, even for staple crops. What is lacking is a holistic modeling framework to design and optimize AV systems for specific crop types, micro‐environments, and panel configurations ...

Singapore Water Budget: The Past, the Present, and the Future
Abstract Urbanization and climate change profoundly impact hydrological processes and the associated water budget, challenging sustainable water management. In this study, we use a distributed mechanistic ecohydrological model adapted for urban environments to quantify changes in the hydrological budget components in response to urbanization, as well ...

Pervasive Building Height Thresholds for Urban Heat Response and Implications for Climate Mitigation
Abstract Urbanization is accelerating vertical urban development, yet the complex relationship between building height (BH) and urban heat island (UHI) intensity remains underexplored. Using 30‐m high‐resolution urban building data from 2005 to 2020, we quantify the impact of BH on UHI across 11,290 urban grid cells in 331 Chinese prefecture‐level ...

To reduce reliance on synthetic pesticides and improve planting‐stock quality, nursery managers may consider integrating perennial flowering strips into inter‐rows, particularly under comparable pine nursery conditions. This nature‐based intervention was associated with reduced sap‐sucking pest pressure, probably mediated by increased natural enemy ...
