Nature is perceived and valued in starkly different often conflicting ways. This paper presents the rationale for inclusive valuation of nature's contributions to people (NCP) decision making, as well broad methodological steps doing so. While developed within context Intergovernmental Platform on Biodiversity Ecosystem Services (IPBES), this approach more widely applicable initiatives at knowledge–policy interface, which require a pluralistic recognizing diversity values. We argue that...
Abstract Twenty-five years since foundational publications on valuing ecosystem services for human well-being 1,2 , addressing the global biodiversity crisis 3 still implies confronting barriers to incorporating nature’s diverse values into decision-making. These include powerful interests supported by current norms and legal rules such as property rights, which determine whose of nature are acted on. A better understanding how why is (under)valued more urgent than ever 4 . Notwithstanding...
Abstract The Strategic Plan for Biodiversity (2011–2020), adopted at the 10th meeting of Conference Parties to Convention on Biological Diversity, sets 20 Aichi Targets be met by 2020 address biodiversity loss and ensure its sustainable equitable use. Target 11 describes what an improved conservation network would look like marine, terrestrial inland water areas, including freshwater ecosystems. To date, there is no comprehensive assessment needs achieved meet biodiversity. Reports...
OBJECTIVES: Despite Medicare, elderly persons are exposed to substantial out-of-pocket health care cost burdens. As Medicare reform proposals considered, it is important determine the current size, distribution, and burden of these expenditures. METHODS: Data from 1995 Current Beneficiary Survey were used analyze expenditures their in relation income; proportion total paid out-of-pocket; role pharmacy, hospital, physician, other services overall spending. RESULTS: Expenditures averaged 19.0%...
A structured literature review using the search term 'ecosystem services' found few relevant studies relating to three contrasting wetlands in West Bengal: unpopulated Sudhanyakhali Island Sundarbans National Park, populated Gosaba separated from by a narrow channel, and East Kolkata Wetland (EKW). Subsequent focused on EKW specific service-related terms located only 2 provisioning, 6 regulating, 1 cultural 3 supporting services. Few services are currently recognized literature, with...
Despite globally agreed sustainability goals, advocacy for specific pathways of action remains highly contested. Disagreement about how best to advance can produce constructive debate but also lead marginalization, conflict, and inaction. This review uncovers different "values nature" underpin allegiance sustainability. It analyzes four selected pathways: (1) Green Economy, (2) Nature Protection, (3) Earth Stewardship Biocultural Diversity, (4) Degrowth Post-Growth. We identify these diverge...
Values have been recognized as critical leverage points for sustainability transformations. However, there is limited evidence unpacking which types of values are associated with specific sustainable and unsustainable futures, described by future scenarios other futures-related works. This paper builds on a review 460 scenarios, visions, works in the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform Biodiversity Ecosystem Services Assessment, synthesizing from academia, private sector, governmental...
Forest degradation poses a greater ecological threat than deforestation, with forest fragmentation being key concern. Fragmentation breaks vast tracts into smaller, isolated patches, jeopardizing biodiversity. A study in Haryana's sub-Himalayan region analysed using satellite data from Landsat-7 ETM+ (2001) and Landsat-8 OLI (2021). Geospatial methods, employing tools like QGIS, ArcGIS, FRAGSTAT, evaluated landscape metrics dynamics. Over 20 years, area significantly declined, particularly...
Abstract Plants response to various biotic and abiotic factors requires not only the de novo synthesis of proteins enzymes but also their precise timely degradation. The latter is achieved through protein degradation machinery such as ubiquitin proteasome pathway (UPS). UPS plays a central role in maintaining cellular physiology orchestrating plant stresses responses. regulates all stages defense from pathogen perception mounting response, this make suitable candidate for host manipulation....

Abstract The wise use of wetlands is expected to contribute ecological integrity, as well secure livelihoods, especially communities dependent on their ecosystem services for sustenance. This paper provides a conceptual framework capable examining the goals wetland management, poverty reduction and sustainable livelihoods. highlights character social construct and, with notion settings human well-being, builds concept assessing inter-linkages between value broader applicability our then...
Ecological character and wise use are central tenets underpinning the Ramsar Convention’s global wetland ambitions. In this paper, we postulate that, given on-going progressive degradation destruction of wetlands, these concepts require reframing. So as to overcome human–nature dualism, which underpins current conservation, propose that wetlands need be placed within a social–ecological framing can accommodate plurality worldviews value systems. This reframing broadens definition ecological...
Although health, development, and environment challenges are interconnected, evidence remains fractured across sectors due to methodological conceptual differences in research practice. Aligned methods needed support Sustainable Development Goal advances similar agendas. The Bridge Collaborative, an emergent research-practice collaboration, presents principles recommendations that help harmonize for generation use. Recommendations were generated the context of designing evaluating impact...
Abstract The assessment of water quality the River Yamuna in Delhi stretch was carried out by determining changes concentration levels 19 physico‐chemical parameters. It observed that vegetation plays an important role acting as a biological sink for mineral nutrients, thereby restoring quality. is proposed restoration inundation pattern floodplains would greatly help re‐aeration overlying and re‐absorption pollutants through mud/water exchanges.
Aflatoxin being a serious threat to public health and international trade, necessi-tates comprehensive understanding calculated response with effective inter-vention strategies. This review methodically looks at several aspects of aflatoxin, starting how it affects trade laws through feed ingre-dient regulations. contamination poses challenges world the economy, especially in areas that are already risk. Examining varia-bles affecting aflatoxin toxicity, paper clarifies toxicity's complex...

Firstly, industry undergoing a transformative phase, where AI-driven digitalization optimizing supply, trade, and consumption. Emphasis laid AI’s role integrating solar hydrogen power generation, supply-demand management, latest advancements technology. These...
Abstract Global crop production is severely affected by environmental factors such as drought, salinity, cold, flood etc. Among these stresses, drought one of the major abiotic stresses reducing productivity. It expected that conditions will further increase because increasing global temperature. In general, viruses are seen a pathogen affecting However, several researches showing can induce tolerance in plants. This review explores mechanisms underlying interplay between viral infections...
Introduction: Opioids are widely used in conjunction with local anesthetics as they permit the use of lower dose while providing adequate anesthesia and analgesia. It both provides well drug toxicity neuraxial administration opioids improves quality intraoperative analgesia prolongs duration postoperative Bupivacaine is most commonly for subarachnoid block due to its lesser side effects.
