This paper reviews the critical role of Bangladesh's blue carbon ecosystems in enhancing coastal resilience and carbon sequestration while analyzing existing ecological challenges and proposing integrated management frameworks to overcome socioeconomic and climate-related vulnerabilities.
This study proposes a novel three-component spliced Lognormal–Weibull–K distribution framework to accurately model the seasonal variability of significant wave height across low, moderate, and upper-tail regimes in the Abadi-1 Masela offshore area, demonstrating its superior capability for assessing operational risks compared to single-distribution models.
This paper analyzes the decline of urban green space in Bangladesh driven by rapid urbanization, identifies critical knowledge gaps and policy shortcomings in advancing Nature-based Solutions, and proposes five holistic strategies—encompassing planning, policy, collaboration, equity, and science—to guide future improvements.
Despite receiving over 4000 mm of annual rainfall, a Japanese cedar forest in Yanase, Japan, exhibits seasonal water stress during the previous July that significantly influences tree growth, as evidenced by correlations between modeled soil water and multiple tree-ring variables.
This study demonstrates that high-frequency GNSS and strong-motion accelerograph data, despite sparse station coverage and large azimuthal gaps, can reliably estimate the source mechanism of the July 28, 2025, Mw 6.4 Nicobar earthquake, thereby aiding rapid tsunami hazard assessment in the Andaman-Nicobar region.
This study demonstrates that high-frequency, high-resolution remote sensing using Sentinel-2 and PlanetScope imagery effectively quantified the temporary but significant increase in turbidity and sediment concentration in coastal waters near Porchat Island, Brazil, following a 2025 pipeline rupture, thereby validating the utility of such tools for rapid impact assessment and coastal management.
This study utilizes an integrated Sentinel-2 framework to analyze spatial and seasonal water quality dynamics in Pakistan's Khanpur and Simly reservoirs, demonstrating that multiple optical indicators effectively distinguish contrasting seasonal regimes and offer a valuable satellite-based complement to conventional monitoring in data-scarce regions.
This paper maps the operational landscape of twenty-five landslide early warning systems across ten Latin American countries, revealing that while historical rainfall thresholds remain dominant, the region's primary challenges are insufficient monitoring density and institutional gaps rather than technical limitations, necessitating a shift toward sustained financing, local ownership, and actionable community engagement over further technological sophistication.
This study utilized multivariate statistical analyses to characterize distinct spatiotemporal water-quality patterns across five anthropogenic-pressure zones in Lake Guamuez, revealing that the navigation channel exhibits the most degraded conditions and highlighting the need for synchronized, source-oriented monitoring in this high-Andean Ramsar wetland.
This study utilizes key informant interviews in Australia's Shoalhaven region to reveal that rural water sustainability is hindered by crisis-driven funding, urban-rural investment disparities, and fragmented governance, prompting six structural reform proposals to better align rural water management with Sustainable Development Goals.
