The study demonstrates that natural levee evolution in the central Kanto Plain is controlled by river migration and sea-level fluctuations, which are influenced by climate change, providing insights that can inform climate action.
This study is a comprehensive assessment of the effects of climate change mitigation and pollution policies in China, providing policy recommendations.
The primary outcome of our work is the strong evidence that flood hazards are related to the structural setting of the basin, which includes topography and geology, while the transition of flood hazards into disasters is mainly because of unplanned urbanization.
This text ties into SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure) and SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities). It discusses the potential of poured earth materials to decarbonize the construction industry, optimize material flows, and reduce resource extraction, contributing to more sustainable and resilient urban development.

This chapter advances the UN SDG goals 9 and 11 by exploring the potential of AI tools to promote sustainable transportation in electric vehicles.
This One Earth Commentary discusses how policy makers could accelerate social change towards climate action (SDG 13) in their cities and communities (SDG 11) by reducing early inertia.
The study finds that compact urban landscapes increase heat health risks, while green spaces and vegetation can mitigate these risks, highlighting the importance of urban planning for climate adaptation.
Mitigating urban overheating is crucial for livable cities, yet this study of 7,500+ actions in 2,500+ European cities reveals a heavy focus on green and water solutions, limited use of smart systems, and gaps in addressing vulnerable populations and combinatorial strategies.
The research questions explore the recent progress and technological advancements in Wireless Power Transfer (WPT), the reflection of global engagement within the WPT community through publication trends and geographical distribution, and the alignment of thematic clusters with SDG goals. Questions also investigate the contribution of AI to WPT, challenges and barriers to WPT adoption revealed by bibliometric analysis, ways WPT technology can democratize technology access in marginalized regions, and specific recommendations to ensure WPT technologies effectively accelerate progress towards achieving a broader set of SDGs.
Extreme weather events post health risks to inhabitants of residential buildings. This paper compares retrofittable approaches to improving thermal resilience of residential homes in humid areas.
