Abstract:

China, as the world's largest coal producer and consumer, faces increasingly severe challenges from coal mine goaf areas formed through decades of intensive mining. These underground voids, resulting from exhausted resources or technical limitations, not only cause environmental issues like land subsidence and groundwater contamination but also pose critical safety risks for ongoing mining operations,...

Abstract:

The management of agricultural wastes is essential for resource conservation and environmental sustainability. Due to escalating worries regarding plastic pollution and the surging expenses linked to petroleum-based plastics, there has been a notable transition towards the creation of biodegradable alternatives sourced from natural materials. Biofibres and bioplastics, especially those derived from agricultural waste, have garnered... More

Abstract:

This study delves into Green Human Resource Management (GHRM) as well as its link with organizational sustainability. Through a review of literature, this research hopes to fathom the place of eco-sustainability in employee involvement and enhancing environmental responsibility via Green HRM. The main aim of this study is to thoroughly examine the literature on GHRM... More

Abstract:

Corporate environmental sustainability has become a critical concern, particularly in resource-intensive industries such as pharmaceuticals, where regulatory pressures and stakeholder expectations continue to rise. Despite increasing attention to green leadership, limited research has explored how environmentally responsible leadership (ERL) influences corporate environmental performance (CEP) through employee-driven sustainability behaviors. This study addresses this gap by examining... More

Abstract:

Beach groynes are structures for erosion protection along sandy coasts near inlets and  can reduce the  coastal erosion substantially, but open groynes cannot stop erosion completely because sand can be removed from the groyne compartments by cross-shore processes. Beach groynes should be designed with sufficient bypassing of sand to minimise  erosion. Regular beach maintenance is... More

Abstract:

The distribution of flow discharge between the Tien and Hau Rivers in the Vietnamese Mekong Delta (VMD) plays an important role in Vietnam’s agricultural and aquaculture production activities. However, recent variations in water levels and flow patterns, driven by both human activities and climate change (CC), have posed significant challenges for water resource management. This study...

Abstract:

Bees are essential to human life and ecosystems, significantly contributing to medicine, economics, and environmental equilibrium. Bees serve an essential function as pollinators, facilitating the cultivation of various fruits and vegetables. Bees contribute approximately 117 billion US dollars annually to the economy through their role in crop pollination. They have a direct impact on 35%... More

Abstract:

Natural resource management is essential to sustain human well-being and the environment. Water and soil are two of the most important natural resources that require careful management. The western part of India faces multiple challenges, including climatic variability, soil degradation, water scarcity, deforestation, etc. The basin’s sub-watersheds are delineated and prioritised using the Soil and...

Abstract:

Organic matter increases biological activity within the root zone because it contains beneficial microbes that stimulate vital processes. This study aimed to determine the effect of Ochrobactrum anthropi added to the soil as a single or mixed solution with different concentrations of organic matter on the vegetative growth of the zinnia plant and its content of nutrients....

Abstract:

For around fifty years, the regression and degradation of wetlands were considered so worrying that they were the subject of an international Convention signed on 2 February 1971, in Iran (RAMSAR). This treaty aims to conserve wetlands meeting criteria of international importance through the notion of rational use of these spaces and their biodiversity. The... More

Abstract:

Morocco, like many arid countries, is facing desertification, particularly in its southern and southeastern regions. A clear indication of this process is the movement of sand dunes in the southern part of the country. Studying wind dynamics in this area provides insights into the conditions and processes driving desertification, including sand erosion, transport, and deposition. This... More

Abstract:

The Mekong Delta in Vietnam is a region that produces rice and emits methane, a potent greenhouse gas. Vietnam’s rice exports, which rank among the top four globally, have a significant impact on the world’s food suppy. The Eddy Covariance system, positioned in the rice field, has been recording methane emission rates and bio-meteorological factors. This study presents the findings of three... More

Abstract:

In contrast to well-studied rift basins in NE China, the Hailar Basin has received relatively less attention regarding the combined patterns of different types of grabens and half-grabens. This study aims to explore whether the combined patterns of grabens in the Hailar Basin exhibit similar characteristics to those in other NE China rift basins and... More

Abstract:

The End-Permian mass extinction (EPME), Earth's most severe biocrisis, occurred proximal to the Permian-Triassic Boundary (PTB), with marine ecosystems experiencing catastrophic collapse. This study employs stable carbon (δ¹³C) and oxygen isotopes from marine carbonates in the Haidai Section (Xuanwei, northeastern Yunnan) to decipher paleoenvironmental drivers. The well-preserved stratigraphic sequence encompasses the Upper Permian (Yangxin and... More

Abstract:

The purpose of this study lies in exploring the role of materiality in environmental information disclosures under the securities laws of the United States and China, discussing the differences in the regulatory mechanism, limits of enforcement, and challenges of seeking global harmonization. The paper does a comparative legal analysis of statutory provisions, judicial interpretations, and regulatory frameworks of the... More
