Abstract:
This study explores the potential of Michelia champaca wood as a sustainable and locally available precursor for the fabrication of high-performance supercapacitor electrodes. Activated carbons were synthesized through single-step carbonization at 400 °C and 500 °C (SSC-400 °C and SSC-500 °C) and double-step carbonization at 400 °C (DSC-400 °C), with all samples activated using H₃PO₄. The effects of carbonization stratergy on the... More
Abstract:
Deforestation is the purpose of converting forest into land and reforestation compared to deforestation is very low. That’s why closely and accurately deforestation monitoring using Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 satellite images for better vision is required. This paper proposes an effective image fusion technique that combines S-1/2 data to improve the deforested areas. Based on review,... More
Abstract:
The simultaneous increase in development in Pesawaran Regency is closely correlated with the intense competition for land use. However, low policy implementation effectiveness has led to construction beyond designated spatial plan. The study used a quantitative survey using Landsat images in 2016, 2019, and 2022. The data analysis techniques used geographic information systems integrated with Artificial Neural... More
Abstract:
In the Republic of Benin, as in many other West African countries, urban areas have experienced rapid population growth in recent years. This situation has led to an increasing demand for sanitation facilities, necessitating regular emptying of these systems. In a bid to reduce health risks and protect the surrounding natural environment, the management of... More
Abstract:
This research paper addresses, from an ecogeographic perspective within a localised context, a new concept of nature conservation within modern farming systems: the direct seeding technique based on the principles of the Conservation Agriculture System (CAS). The adoption of CAS aims to increase soil fertility, promote biodiversity, and sustain production, making it one of the... More
Abstract:
Flooding is a natural phenomenon influenced by various factors and occurs frequently across many regions in Indonesia, including Gedebage in Bandung City, West Java. Gedebage is one of the city’s lowest-lying areas, with an elevation of 666–669 meters above sea level, making it particularly prone to recurrent flooding. The main issue is the absence of... More
Abstract:
This study examines the Carolina Bays and Nebraska Rainwater Basins, using high-resolution LiDAR elevation models to analyze their unique shapes. The research reveals that well-preserved Bays exhibit precise elliptical geometry, distinguishing them from various oriented lakes they are often compared to. While the timing of their formation is discussed, the primary goal of this paper... More
Abstract:
Vietnam, with its twenty-eight coastal provinces, is one of the nations most profoundly affected by the adverse impacts of climate change (CC). These provinces face severe challenges as they contend with the escalating effects of CC, including rising sea levels, typhoons, flooding, and droughts. In this context, this article aims to assess the vulnerability of households' livelihoods in Quang Nam... More
