Summary: The study aims to assess priorities for new environmental accounts in Indonesia, with environmental costs related to resource extraction and air pollution identified as major contributors. Estimates show that around 13% of Indonesia's GDP in 2010 is attributed to environmental costs, mainly stemming from depletion of energy and mineral resources, as well as environmental degradation from air pollution.

Summary: The rapid growth of global tourism poses challenges for natural resource conservation and management, necessitating effective environmental regulations. This study investigates the role of tourism development and environmental regulations in managing natural resources in G20 countries. The findings show that tourism development, environmental regulations, environmental protection technologies, and government interventions have a positive impact on natural resource management, while natural resource depletion has a negative impact. The results provide insights for future environmental and tourism policies in G20 countries to manage natural resources.

Summary: Adaptive management is an approach for managing social-ecological systems in uncertain and controllable environments. Considering spatial and temporal scales is important to regulate the effects of management actions. Combining multiscale adaptive management with the panarchy model can improve the management of social-ecological systems.

Summary: With the development of society and the improvement of living standards, people have higher expectations for medical services. However, there are still objective problems such as rising medical costs, difficulty in seeking medical treatment, uneven distribution of medical resources, low efficiency of medical services, and uneven medical quality. This paper analyzes the significance of public health informatization construction and the problems in community health informatization. It proposes the construction of a health information platform based on community health records and introduces an algorithm to enhance public health informatics.

Summary: This study examines the effects of renewable energy consumption (REC), global collaboration in environmental technology development (GCETD), gross domestic product per capita (GDPPC), marine energy generation technologies (MGT), trade openness (TDOT), natural resources (NRs), and carbon dioxide emissions (CO(2)e) in 34 selected knowledge-based economies from 1990 to 2020. The results indicate that MGT and REC are positively associated with zero carbon emissions, suggesting their potential as sustainable alternative energy sources. In addition, the accessibility of NRs can have a positive impact on CO(2)e, highlighting the need for sustainable use of natural resources. The study also underscores the importance of GDPPC and TDOT in achieving carbon neutrality, as increased economic success can contribute to greater ecological sustainability. Furthermore, the findings demonstrate that GCETD is linked to lower CO(2)e, emphasizing the importance of international cooperation in environmental technology development to address global warming.

Summary: In recent years, the world has paid a lot of attention to sustainable development and resource productivity due to the increase in climate change. At the same time, the use of artificial intelligence in financial management and the development of new blockchains or cryptocurrencies have significantly impacted economic operations. This study investigates the influence of financial management and blockchains on environmental sustainability and resource productivity using monthly time series data from the United States economy. The findings indicate that artificial intelligence-based financial management improves environmental sustainability and resource productivity, while blockchain technology has mixed effects by reducing metallic resources but also contributing to environmental unsustainability. These findings are crucial in guiding the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals.

Summary: The disconnect between modeling and management needs poses a significant challenge in using information and ideas generated through ecosystem models and analyses for ecosystem-based fisheries management. A case study from the U.S. West Coast showcases a process to identify management priorities, evaluate potential ecosystem models and analyses, and address policy needs, highlighting the importance of structured, iterative, and interactive communication between managers, stakeholders, and modelers.

Summary: Worldwide, marginalized and low-income communities will suffer the most from climate change impacts but have the least power to mitigate them. Scientists have long been providing policy recommendations that aim to balance humanitarian needs with the conservation of ecosystems and wildlife. However, many conservation and development practitioners lack training in social research and participatory project design, which can lead to failed initiatives, even with community support.

Summary: We analyzed the spatial variation in fish species richness and community composition in the Karun River basin in Iran. A total of 37 species were collected, including 13 endemics, 16 natives, and 8 non-natives. Our study found that electrical conductivity and elevation had the most significant impact on species distribution.

Summary: This research examines the relationship between natural resources and carbon (CO2) emissions, making a novel contribution to emerging economies. The study finds that each component of natural resources has a different impact on CO2 emissions, and economic growth, urbanization, and renewable energy consumption play significant roles. The study suggests increasing the production of renewables and utilizing natural resources efficiently to achieve the COP26 target.

Summary: Acute environmental perturbations cause changes in microbial community composition and selection of different phylotypes, while chronic perturbations maintain community stability and can lead to the establishment of alternative stable states. This study also demonstrates the functional resilience of ecosystem following environmental perturbations.

Summary: This study compared eDNA metabarcoding technology with conventional microscopical approaches to identify the variability characteristics of the Weihe River community structure under changing environment. The molecular method identified three times more species than the traditional method, significantly improving species identification ability. Molecular methods elucidated the interaction between eco-hydrological variables and zooplankton community structure. Our research provides meaningful demonstrations on the application of eDNA technology in river ecosystem monitoring and assessment.

Summary: Experiential learning is crucial in planning education. The University of Oregon has developed a unique experiential model involving paying clients and nontenure track faculty, which has been evaluated positively over nine years. The model provides thorough professional training and excellent products, with client engagement and staffing support playing key roles, though challenges in collaborative work programs, team dynamics, and equity and inclusion integration persist.
