Temperature and precipitation differently influence entomological indices based on larval or adult sampling

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Larval indices, especially house infestation index (HI) and breteau index (BI), were significantly associated with temperature and precipitation, indicating that warmer and wetter conditions increase Aedes aegypti breeding‐site positivity. Adult indices, trap positivity index (TPI) and adult density index (ADI) showed no significant association with ...

Microplastic Dynamics in Sediment Layers of Two Ramsar‐Designated Wetlands

open access: yesWater and Environment Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Little is known about the vertical and spatial dynamics of microplastics in relation to hydrology and land use, particularly in African context. This study aimed to assess the abundance, type, colour and vertical distribution of microplastics in sediment from two Ramsar‐designated wetlands, the Makuleke and Nylsvley. Sediment core samples were

Urban stormwater runoff: a new class of environmental flow problem.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Environmental flow assessment frameworks have begun to consider changes to flow regimes resulting from land-use change. Urban stormwater runoff, which degrades streams through altered volume, pattern and quality of flow, presents a problem that ...

Public Understanding of Water‐Sensitive Urban Design and Implications for Land Use Planning: Insights From Aotearoa New Zealand

open access: yesWater and Environment Journal, EarlyView.
Conventional urban drainage systems are frequently found to contribute to degradation of urban watercourses. The implementation of Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) and associated nature‐based infrastructure is considered one potential solution to mitigate stormwater‐induced degradation.

Assessment of Inflow and Infiltration in Sewers: Case Study of Antalya, Türkiye

open access: yesWater and Environment Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Unwanted inflow and infiltration (I/I) of rainfall and groundwater into urban sewer systems are a critical issue for sustainable water management. This study examines the data from the two largest and most representative wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) in central Antalya, Lara and Hurma, which both have large service areas and diverse ...

Exploring public attitudes toward implementing green infrastructure for sponge city stormwater management

open access: yesScientific Reports
Sponge city stormwater management (SCSM) strategy in China aims for sustainable stormwater handling. While many studies have examined the technical aspects of sponge city green infrastructure (SCGI), few have explored public perspectives.

Toward an urban soil health index: Emerging indicators for exposure, function, and resilience

open access: yesAgricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 11, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Urban soils are among the most dynamic and human‐impacted soil systems, yet most soil health frameworks remain rooted in agricultural assumptions, capturing fertility and structure while missing urban‐specific concerns: contaminant exposure, extreme heterogeneity, thermal stress, and degraded ecosystem services.

Occurrence of dissolved organic matter in storm-drain inlet sediments and its implication for urban stormwater infrastructure sustainability

open access: yesResources, Environment and Sustainability
In the context of climate change, the effective management of carbon in urban stormwater infrastructure (USI) become increasingly crucial. Research indicates that dissolved organic matter (DOM) plays a significant role in the carbon cycle within USI ...
