Intense urbanization in the Indian cities has brought about phenomenal changes existing landuse patterns, whereby increasing trends of surface temperature and presence absence green cover water bodies, their shape, pattern, configuration significantly modifies thermal properties city. The present study comprehendeds how different biophysical, anthropogenic, landscape composition determine interact with climatic zones India, by taking Jaipur Guwahati as examples. This also incorporated...
Manureshed management guides the sustainable use of manure resources by matching areas crop demand (nutrient sinks) with generating livestock sources). A better understanding impacts manureshed on water quality within sensitive watersheds is needed. We quantified potential benefits manureshed-oriented through scenario-based analyses in Susquehanna River Basin (SRB) using Soil and Water Assessment Tool. Five scenarios were developed compared a baseline "business-as-usual" scenario. The...
<b><sc>Abstract.</sc></b> Intensive agricultural activities in southeastern Pennsylvania (PA) are a leading source of nutrient pollution the Chesapeake Bay. The Bay water quality regulations issued by United States Environmental Protection Agency 2010 require reductions nitrogen, phosphorus, and sediment from agriculture approximately one quarter 2025. A dilemma for state is how to maintain vibrant economy while meeting regulatory targets. One strategy that receiving significant interest...
Abstract Manure application at the right place, time, and rate is critical for sustainable manure management. A land suitability framework (LSF) was previously developed identifying suitable areas utilization considering landscape vulnerability. This study aimed to evaluate LSF provide insights build a new robust utilization. The (1) evaluates potential environmental impacts of compared inorganic fertilization, (2) robustness LSF, (3) identifies biophysical attributes driving nutrient loss....
Highlights We developed a land suitability framework for sustainable manure utilization based on seven water quality-related environmental vulnerability factors. ArcGIS-based decision-support tools were that use readily available data the U.S. The can be adapted to any location in livestock agricultural system. In case study, 19.9% of study area was identified as potentially suitable utilization. 2%, 33%, and 44% potential areas highly, moderately, marginally suitable, respectively. Abstract...
<title>Abstract</title> Urbanization in Southeast Asia, particularly India, has witnessed rapid growth driven by demographic, economic, and socio-political factors. Kolkata, as a prominent urban center, exemplifies this trend, experiencing substantial expansion consequent changes land use cover (LULC), leading to elevated Land Surface Temperature (LST) levels. This study investigates the spatio-temporal dynamics of transformation its influence on LST distribution Kolkata suburban areas over...
