This study employed an advanced geospatial methodology using the Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform to assess soil erosion in the Satluj Watershed thoroughly. To achieve this, the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) model was integrated into the study, which was revealed through several analytical tiers, each with a unique function. The...

本稿は，ガーナ，インドネシア，ベトナムの3 カ国でプラスチック汚染対策のためのステークホ ルダー協働の制度化に，「中心的なアクター」と しての役割を果たしたと考えられるナショナル・ プラスチック・アクション・パートナーシップ （NPAP）について，著者らが実施した調査・分析 に基づいている（Asokan et al., 2023）．NPAPは， 世界経済フォーラムのイニシアティブであるグ ローバル・プラスチック・アクション・パート ナーシップ（GPAP）の一環として各国単位で形成 されたイニシアティブである．本研究の目的は， このNPAPの事例を通じて，プラスチック汚染対 策のステークホルダー協働の仕組みについて分析 し，現在合意に向けた交渉が行われているプラス...

The construction of large-scale infrastructure projects like dams can substantially alter local hydrological systems, prompting concerns about their impacts on river water levels and discharge. This study was undertaken in response to the compelling need to investigate and analyze the potential implications of water scarcity, particularly within...

This study utilises a comprehensive, multi-layered approach to assess flooding susceptibility in a specific area, integrating diverse environmental datasets such as JRC Global Surface Water, Landsat 8 images, and SRTM elevation data. Employing the GEE FMA, a powerful tool leveraging Google Earth Engine capabilities, the analysis covers water...

Water governance (WG) plays a crucial role in steering integrated water resources management (IWRM) toward the fulfillment of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly in developing regions. Despite this, substantial challenges hinder effective WG implementation across Asia. This study systematically reviews WG literature in Asia from...

Coastal aquifers are hydraulically connected to the sea and a storm (cyclone/hurricane) can disrupt the surface water-groundwater (SW-GW) interaction process which is largely unexplored. Thus, this study aims to explore the impact of storm surges (both positive and negative) on coastal aquifers, focusing on pollutant mobilization, groundwater level...

This study conducts a comprehensive analysis of hydrological patterns in the Kalisindh and Parbati Rivers, highlighting the Eastern Rajasthan Canal Project (ERCP) as pivotal for bolstering regional water security. Employing an array of data sources, this research utilizes Polynomial Regression and neural network forecasting to dissect flow patterns...

Groundwater is crucial for agriculture, domestic use, and industry. This study represents groundwater potential zones in the Amravati district, Maharashtra, India, using the analytical hierarchy process (AHP) and multi-influencing factor (MIF) techniques. These techniques are employed for a detailed spatial analysis, which is essential for...

The low-lying Vietnamese Mekong Delta (VMD) is a key agricultural production landscape increasingly threatened by anthropogenic stresses and climate change. Among the different threats, droughts caused by extreme events, climate change and upstream developments, affect the delta the most. This paper explores the relationship between the intensity...

There has been a growing concern over the occurrence of fluoride (F−) in groundwater and the impact of F− exposure on human health issues over the past decades. So, this study conducted a regional–scale assessment of the occurrence and trend of groundwater F− distribution [2014–2018] integrated with locally field–based investigations on F− exposure...
