This content aligns with Goals 2, 13, and 15 by highlighting how indigenous soil reclamation practices can enhance agricultural productivity and food security; explaining how healthy soils play a crucial role in climate change adaptation and mitigation through practices like agroforestry; and emphasizing the importance of biodiversity conservation and sustainable land management practices inherent in indigenous knowledge systems,

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.
The study assesses how different mountain regions worldwide are variably exposed to climate, land use, and human population changes. It highlighting Africa's tropical mountains as most vulnerable and European and North American mountains as potential refugia, informing targeted conservation strategies.
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.
In the pursuit of improving engine performance and mitigating emissions, researchers have explored the intriguing domain of fuel blends incorporating butanol and gasoline. This innovative study aims to unravel the intricate dynamics between butanol and gasoline when utilized as a blended fuel in internal combustion engines. The current study integrates cutting-edge techniques such as Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) and Response Surface Methodology (RSM) for the optimization of engine performance.
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.
This text ties into SDG 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy) and SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure). It focuses on the development and enhancement of inorganic multifunctional nanomaterials for energy applications, which are crucial for improving energy efficiency, storage, and conversion, thereby supporting sustainable energy solutions and innovative infrastructure development.
Ethnic minorities form smaller proportions of Randomised controlled trial cohorts compared to the general population. Efforts to recruit more ethnic minority patients should be made in North America and Europe and more sites in underserved regions would ensure findings are generalisable to diverse groups. This review assessed the global population enrolled in contemporary RCTs for novel therapies now routinely given for gynecological cancers, adding novel understanding of the global distribution of research sites.

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.

This study explored whether peruvian women watching a high level of TV had a higher prevalence of obesity and higher values in different obesity indices.
