Energy Transition towards a low-carbon emission energy system has been long-term strategy for Germany and China. Both countries are expected to take the lead on global effort achieve clean greenhouse gas emissions reduction. Although China have different characteristics, international-level strategic cooperation is essential meeting goals of both local transition. However, until now, no comparable research transition in exists peer-reviewed journal. In order close this knowledge gap,...

Broad topics of the plastisphere in various environments are reviewed, including its methodologies, diversity, functionality, and outlook. Due to their durability, malleability, low cost, plastics have become an integral material industrial consumer products [1]. Global plastic production has enormously grown from 1.5 million metric tonnes 1950 367 2020 [2]. Despite remarkable benefits convenience human lives, awareness about negative environmental impacts increased because vast amount...

Multifunctional and diversified agriculture can address diverging pressures demands by simultaneously enhancing productivity, biodiversity, the provision of ecosystem services. The use digital technologies support this designing managing resource-efficient context-specific agricultural systems. We present Digital Agricultural Knowledge Information System (DAKIS) to demonstrate an approach that employs enable decision-making towards sustainable agriculture. To develop DAKIS, we specified,...

Societal Impact Statement With the rapid development of modern agriculture and its reliance on high‐yielding genetically uniform varieties, many traditional agricultural systems are gradually being abandoned. The genetic diversity contained in landraces is crucial for eco‐agriculture. An indicator evaluation model combined with machine learning could help to locate conserve these existing systems, called heritage (AHS). Here, this method provided first map potential areas Tea‐AHS China....

Agent based population is fundamental to the micro-simulation of various dynamic urban eco- and social systems. This paper surveys basic theories methods hybrid agent modeling in simulation emerged recent years. We first introduce framework this generation. The current approaches initial database synthesis including sample free are then discussed detail, followed by a brief comparison these methods. In addition, major types characteristics models their applications also reviewed. Finally, we...

While land serves numerous societal functions and contributes to sustainable development, it is often unclear how these are affected by political decisions common drivers of use change, such as economic climate change demographic change. This study evaluates alternative scenarios in reference a rural region Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region (China), where various processes have historically triggered unsustainable development. The scientifically tested “Framework for Participatory Impact...

Abstract Biodiversity conservation is one of the most important objectives protected areas. Most biodiversity assessment-related studies use change in species abundance data to measure level conservation. Yet for many areas, long-term are not available and thus it necessary indices monitor effect land (LU) changes or impact area establishment. Poyang Lake wetland wintering sites migratory water birds on East Asian–Australasian flyway. To protect this habitat, 14 nature reserves were created...

Although small-N comparison has become increasingly useful in accounting for postcommunist diversity, most comparative studies tend to focus on a single geographic region (such as East-Central Europe), failing fully exploit the method and running risk of selection bias by arbitrarily reducing variation relevant variable. To guard against this risk, two political scientists adapt Sartori's logic "conceptual stretching" articulate definition postcommunism that enables wider array comparable...

For researchers, conducting face-to-face interviews is always a challenge as it often turns into one-way directed information retrieval. Therefore, interviewees not are very motivated, enthusiastic and cooperative in responding to the questions. In end, this has implications for quality of interview data. To improve setting resulting data, several projects Net-Map tool was used conduct participatory social network analysis. The combination in-depth mapping. During interviews, interviewee...

Abstract Urbanization causes tremendous pressure on biodiversity and ecosystems at the global scale. China is among countries undergoing fastest urban expansion. For a long time, ecological environment protection has not been priority in China’s planning process. Current growth optimization research some limitations regarding selection of more scientific constraint indicators interaction between expansion factors. This paper first aimed to establish reasonable comprehensive indicator based...
