As climate issues become more severe, the necessity and importance of urban transformation are being widely recognized, breadth depth research in various disciplines social sciences to promote net-zero carbon (NZC) cities is increasing. In this study, between 2015 2021, 17 major administrative regions Korea from were taken as target based on driving force-pressure-state-impact-response (DPSIR) ...

From an environmentally conscious and ecological perspective, the sustainability of cities within effects climate change are closely related to wise use resources modifications in status environment. In terms environment, smart entails meeting present future societal demands for environment water, land, air, among others. Environmental concerns that arise from rapid monetary developments shown ...

This an evaluation exercise useful understand what directions imprinted system will be some frameworks particular importance at international level, such as 2030 Agenda, Farm Fork Strategy, Biodiversity UN Food Summit, agroecolo...

The Ria Formosa is a shallow mesotidal lagoon on the south coast of Portugal, with natural biogeochemical cycles essentially regulated by tidal exchanges at the seawater boundaries and at the sediment interface. Existing data on nutrients in the water column and the sediment, together with chlorophyll a and oxygen saturation in the water column, are compared using different models for assessing...

The marine environment is heavily exploited, but unintentional consequences cause wide-ranging negative effects to its characteristics. Linkage frameworks (e.g., DPSIR [driver-pressure-state-impact-response]) are commonly used to describe an interaction between human activities and ecological characteristics of the ecosystem, but as each linkage is viewed independently, the diversity of pressur...

Achieving food security in a 'perfect storm' scenario is a grand challenge for society. Climate change and an expanding global population act in concert to make global food security even more complex and demanding. As achieving food security and the millennium development goal (MDG) to eradicate hunger influences the attainment of other MDGs, it is imperative that we offer solutions which are c...

Urban water security problems such as scarcity, pollution, and flood disasters have restricted the sustainable development of cities. In order to scientifically evaluate urban situation, this study combined DPSIR (driver, pressure, state, impact, response) model HEVD (the hazard disaster-causing factors, vulnerability disaster-affected bodies, instability disaster-pregnant environment, populati...
