The widespread use of multi-spectral light emitting diodes (LEDs) in landscape lighting has led to increasing ground-level light pollution and potential ecological risks, highlighting the need for improved spectral assessment tools. However, spectral measurements are expensive and time-consuming, while non-spectral measurements are limited to specific bands. This study introduces a novel colorimetric-based metric for evaluating ecological light pollution from multi-spectral lighting. By analyzing spectral data, we identified a linear relationship between the spectral responses across various species and tristimulus values of different LEDs. Our method, validated with in situ hyperspectral imaging measurements of lighting facades in downtown Shanghai, China, achieves acceptable precision, with maximum errors under 15 % for human circadian rhythms and under 10 % for plant photosynthesis, moths, and bees. To support practical applications, this study presents a general model for light pollution assessments and addresses the issue of metamerism, which affects prediction accuracy in multi-spectral lighting. The innovation of the model proposed in this study lies in its focus on predicting the absolute intensity of ecological light pollution and its applicability across different LED spectra. This colorimetric-based estimation helps to quickly predict the ecological consequences and thus mitigate the increasing light pollution under the development of lighting technologies. It is a preliminary but valuable attempt to integrate ecological light pollution research with multi-spectral lighting practice.

多光谱发光二极管（LED）在景观照明中的广泛使用导致地面光污染和潜在生态风险不断增加，突出表明需要改进光谱评估工具。然而，光谱测量既昂贵又耗时，而非光谱测量则仅限于特定波段。本研究介绍了一种基于比色法的新型指标，用于评估多光谱照明造成的生态光污染。通过分析光谱数据，我们确定了不同物种的光谱响应与不同 LED 的三基色值之间的线性关系。我们的方法通过对中国上海市中心照明外墙的现场高光谱成像测量进行了验证，达到了可接受的精度，人类昼夜节律的最大误差低于 15%，植物光合作用、飞蛾和蜜蜂的最大误差低于 10%。为了支持实际应用，本研究提出了一个用于光污染评估的通用模型，并解决了影响多光谱照明预测精度的同色异谱问题。本研究提出的模型的创新之处在于，它侧重于预测生态光污染的绝对强度，并适用于不同的 LED 光谱。这种基于色度的估算有助于快速预测生态后果，从而减轻照明技术发展下日益严重的光污染。这是将生态光污染研究与多光谱照明实践相结合的一次初步但有价值的尝试。

Cultivated land compensation can alleviate the conflict between cultivated land protection and socio-economic development. Exploring the spatial-temporal trends of cultivated land compensation, and formulating a scientific and reasonable compensation mechanism are important to achieve sustainable development. To analyze the spatial-temporal changes of the area, comprehensive non-market value, and compensation amount of cultivated land in mainland China, this paper constructed a comprehensive non-market value evaluation framework including positive ecological, negative ecological, and social values, and designed a feasible cultivated land compensation model. In terms of cultivated land area, the cultivated land area indicated an overall surplus condition, and the total net surplus area during 2000–2021 was 54.4 million hectares per year. On a spatial scale, the net surplus districts were concentrated in the north and the center of China, while the net deficit districts were in the developed areas along the southeast coast. In terms of comprehensive non-market value, except for negative ecological value, all other non-market values had increased. On a spatial scale, the coupling relationship between comprehensive non-market value and regional economic development was obvious, presenting a higher value observed in the southeastern coastal developed provinces, and a lower one in the developing inland provinces. In terms of compensation amount, the total payment amount of the payment districts was difficult to cover the total compensation amount of the compensated districts, a certain compensation gap between the two appeared, averaging 6.03 trillion RMB during 2000–2021. On a spatial scale, the payment districts were mainly distributed in the southeastern coastal area, and the number of the payment districts was smaller than that of the compensated area. It is suggested that we should clarify the subject of cultivated land compensation and identify its rights and responsibilities, highlight the leading role of the central government and give full play to the main role of all levels of government, adopt diversified market financing instruments according to local conditions, and formulate relevant supporting security systems.

耕地补偿可以缓解耕地保护与社会经济发展之间的矛盾。探索耕地补偿的时空变化趋势，制定科学合理的补偿机制，对实现耕地的可持续发展具有重要意义。为分析中国大陆耕地面积、非市场综合价值和补偿金额的时空变化，本文构建了包括正生态价值、负生态价值和社会价值在内的非市场综合价值评价框架，并设计了可行的耕地补偿模型。从耕地面积看，耕地面积总体呈盈余状态，2000-2021 年每年净盈余面积为 5440 万公顷。在空间尺度上，净盈余区主要集中在华北和华中地区，净亏损区主要集中在东南沿海发达地区。在非市场综合价值方面，除生态价值为负值外，其他非市场价值均有所增加。在空间尺度上，非市场综合价值与区域经济发展的耦合关系明显，东南沿海发达省份的非市场综合价值较高，内陆发展中省份的非市场综合价值较低。从补偿金额来看，补偿地区的补偿总额难以覆盖被补偿地区的补偿总额，两者之间出现了一定的补偿差距，2000-2021 年平均为 6.03 万亿元。在空间尺度上，赔付区主要分布在东南沿海地区，赔付区数量少于补偿区数量。建议明确耕地补偿主体，明确耕地补偿权责；突出中央政府主导作用，充分发挥各级政府主体作用；因地制宜，采取多元化市场融资手段；制定相关配套保障制度。

Incorporating broader health determinants (e.g., solastalgia) into Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) has been recommended to better understand its social impacts. Whether such negative feelings prompt positive responses (e.g., environment-friendly behaviors) among residents has received limited attention and remains a subject of debate. The present work, therefore, examines the relationship between perceived environmental risks, solastalgia, internal environmental locus of control, and public environment-friendly behaviors, particularly in the context of urbanization-induced environmental risk perception. Valid data from 702 residents were analyzed through structural equation modeling. Findings confirmed that, perceived environmental risks due to urbanization are positively associated with public environment-friendly behaviors through the chain mediating roles of solastalgia and internal environmental locus of control. The study thus validated a shortened solastalgia scale in the urbanization context through psychometric analysis and contributes to the Protection Motivation Theory (PMT) and the Attribution Theory framework. Specifically, it highlights the importance of considering locus of control from Attribution Theory when predicting individuals' protection motivation in response to perceived risks, reflecting both threat appraisal and coping appraisal as emphasized in PMT. Moreover, the findings revealed significant age differences in feelings of solastalgia, with older participants reporting higher levels of solastalgia. Gender differences were also observed, with men reporting significantly greater engagement in public environment-friendly behaviors than women. These findings offer practical implications for designing interventions that prioritize human well-being and promote sustainable behaviors. They also provide insights for policymakers seeking to enhance public acceptance of environmental policies.

为更好地了解环境影响评估（EIA）的社会影响，建议将更广泛的健康决定因素（如孤独感）纳入环境影响评估。这种负面情绪是否会促使居民做出积极反应（如环境友好行为），目前关注度有限，仍是一个争论的话题。因此，本研究探讨了环境风险感知、孤独感、内部环境控制源和公共环境友好行为之间的关系，尤其是在城市化引发的环境风险感知的背景下。我们通过结构方程模型分析了 702 位居民的有效数据。研究结果证实，城市化导致的环境风险感知与公共环境友好行为通过孤独感和内部环境控制源的连锁中介作用呈正相关。因此，本研究通过心理测量分析验证了城市化背景下的孤独感简易量表，并为保护动机理论（PMT）和归因理论框架做出了贡献。具体而言，该研究强调了在预测个人针对感知风险的保护动机时考虑归因理论中的控制位置的重要性，这同时反映了保护动机理论所强调的威胁评估和应对评估。此外，研究结果表明，孤独感存在明显的年龄差异，年龄越大的参与者孤独感越强。研究还发现了性别差异，男性参与公共环境友好行为的程度明显高于女性。这些发现为设计优先考虑人类福祉和促进可持续行为的干预措施提供了实际意义。它们还为决策者提供了见解，帮助他们提高公众对环境政策的接受度。

This study investigates the viability of utilizing cenospheres as an alternative precursor material for geopolymer formulation, comparing their performance against ground-granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) across various parameters such as strength, durability, cost, and environmental impacts. A cradle-to-gate life cycle assessment was performed to evaluate the environmental impact of geopolymer mixtures containing varying proportions of cenosphere and GGBFS, relative to conventional cement mortar (CM). Additionally, a multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) analysis was employed by assigning varied importance levels to identify the optimal formulation derived from performance (strength and durability), cost, and environmental impact. The findings demonstrate that GGBFS/cenosphere-based geopolymers lower global warming potential (GWP) by 24–33 % compared to CM. Moreover, incorporating 25–75 % cenospheres in geopolymers reduces GWP by 4–7 % and energy consumption by 5 % compared to purely GGBFS-based geopolymers. The eutrophication potential (EP) and acidification potential (AP) were also reduced by 3–10 % and 5–15 %, respectively, by adding 25–75 % cenospheres in geopolymers. However, the cost is also increased by 6–18 %. Based on the MCDM analysis, geopolymers containing cenosphere possess higher overall sustainability than conventional cement-based mortars.

本研究调查了利用仙人球作为土工聚合物配方的替代前体材料的可行性，并比较了仙人球与粒化高炉矿渣（GGBFS）在强度、耐久性、成本和环境影响等各种参数方面的性能。此外，还进行了 "从摇篮到终点 "的生命周期评估，以评估土工聚合物混合物与传统水泥砂浆（CM）相比对环境的影响。此外，还采用了多标准决策（MCDM）分析法，通过分配不同的重要程度来确定从性能（强度和耐久性）、成本和环境影响中得出的最佳配方。研究结果表明，与 CM 相比，基于 GGBFS/碳圈的土工聚合物的全球升温潜能值 (GWP) 降低了 24-33%。此外，与纯粹基于 GGBFS 的土工聚合物相比，在土工聚合物中加入 25-75% 的仙人球可将全球升温潜能值降低 4-7%，能耗降低 5%。在土工聚合物中添加 25-75 % 的仙人球后，富营养化潜能值 (EP) 和酸化潜能值 (AP) 也分别降低了 3-10 % 和 5-15 %。不过，成本也增加了 6-18%。根据 MCDM 分析，与传统的水泥基砂浆相比，含有仙人球的土工聚合物具有更高的整体可持续性。

Neighborhoods consume large amount of energy and generate substantial pollutant emissions worldwide, and assessment of the environmental impacts (EIs) has garnered particular attention. Nevertheless, the traditional life cycle assessment (LCA) method fails to account for the local variability in non-homogeneous systems due to spatiotemporal dynamics and interactions. Hence, this study integrated the multi-agent system (MAS) with the dynamic LCA (DLCA) model to develop an intelligent EIs assessment model at the neighborhood scale from an interactive and dynamic perspective. MAS was employed to simulate the interactions in neighborhoods and generate foreground elementary flow data considering dynamics. DLCA provides an impact assessment framework. The proposed model was applied to a university campus to demonstrate its operability, and the enhancement effectiveness of integrating MAS with DLCA can be observed. The interactions among the climate, people, and built environment agents on the campus were simulated.10 temporal dynamic factors and four kinds of case-specific dynamic parameters were considered. The effects of several optimization strategies were simulated, and valuable directions, like raising energy conservation awareness, regulating public devices, and improving the campus layout, were proposed. This study established a comprehensive integrated MAS-DLCA model at the neighborhood scale, providing a methodology and practical application process for future studies. It can be used to promote green neighborhood management and sustainable city practices.

在全球范围内，居民区消耗大量能源并产生大量污染物排放，因此环境影响（EIs）评估受到特别关注。然而，传统的生命周期评估（LCA）方法无法考虑非均质系统中由于时空动态和相互作用而产生的局部变化。因此，本研究将多代理系统（MAS）与动态生命周期评估（DLCA）模型相结合，从交互和动态的角度开发了邻域尺度的智能环境影响评估模型。MAS 被用来模拟邻里间的互动，并生成考虑到动态性的前景基本流数据。DLCA 提供了一个影响评估框架。为了证明模型的可操作性，将 MAS 与 DLCA 相结合，可以观察到模型的增强效果。模拟了校园内气候、人员和建筑环境因子之间的相互作用。模拟了几种优化策略的效果，提出了提高节能意识、调节公共设备和改善校园布局等有价值的方向。本研究建立了街区尺度的综合 MAS-DLCA 模型，为今后的研究提供了方法论和实际应用流程。该模型可用于推广绿色街区管理和可持续城市实践。

The globalization of food consumption represents that one country mitigate domestic land resources scarcity by trading food. Land for production is actually being reallocated among countries, and the consequent carbon emissions are flowing across regions. However, it remains unclear what the patterns and features of land reallocation and carbon emission at the diverse levels globally. This study applied physical trade flow and agglomerative clustering analysis to elucidate the patterns and connection of land reallocation and carbon emission transfer though food trade from 2001 to 2021. The results show that global land reallocation increased from 1.67 to 3.10 million km², primarily provided by America. The global land reallocation is classified into five patterns, China is classified as the “dependents” in the global land reallocation patterns, while the United States and Brazil are the “monopolists”. The “suppliers” is comprised of five countries which are the main providers of land reallocation. Fifteen land-reliant countries are classified as “demanders”, while most of countries are classified as “balancers” self-sufficient in land. Carbon emissions from land reallocation have risen by 136 million tons during two decades, with Asia and Europe transfer pollution to South America, and Brazil becoming the largest emitter. Moreover, the arable land, government investment in agriculture and population are the major drivers of embodied carbon emissions. This study underscores the redistributive effects of food trade on land, which is significant for optimizing the global allocation of land resources and achieving the sustainable agriculture.

粮食消费全球化意味着一个国家通过粮食贸易来缓解国内土地资源稀缺的问题。生产用地实际上正在各国之间重新分配，随之而来的碳排放也在跨区域流动。然而，全球不同层面的土地再分配和碳排放的模式和特征是什么，目前仍不清楚。本研究运用实物贸易流和集聚聚类分析，阐明了2001-2021年粮食贸易中土地再配置与碳排放转移的模式与联系。结果表明，全球土地再分配面积从 167 万平方公里增加到 310 万平方公里，主要由美洲提供。全球土地重新配置分为五种模式，中国是全球土地重新配置模式中的 "依附者"，美国和巴西是 "垄断者"。供应国 "由五个国家组成，它们是土地重新配置的主要供应国。15 个依赖土地的国家被归类为 "需求者"，而大多数国家被归类为土地自给自足的 "平衡者"。二十年间，土地重新分配产生的碳排放量增加了 1.36 亿吨，亚洲和欧洲将污染转移到南美洲，巴西成为最大的排放国。此外，耕地、政府对农业的投资和人口是体现碳排放的主要驱动因素。这项研究强调了粮食贸易对土地的再分配效应，这对优化全球土地资源配置和实现可持续农业意义重大。

Carbon emissions from land reallocation have risen by 136 million tons during two decades, with Asia and Europe transfer pollution to South America, and Brazil becoming the largest emitter. Moreover, the arable land, government investment in agriculture and population are the major drivers of embodied carbon emissions. This study underscores the redistributive effects of food trade on land, which is significant for optimizing the global allocation of land resources and achieving the sustainable agriculture.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":309,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Impact Assessment Review","volume":"110 ","pages":"Article 107710"},"PeriodicalIF":9.8,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142572710","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The rapid expansion of ICT-related multinational enterprises (IMNEs) has introduced significant challenges in emissions mitigation. This paper uses a multi-regional input-output model and complex network analysis to examine the global CO₂ emissions transfer network driven by IMNEs (GCNI) from 2000 to 2019. The results reveal that between 2009 and 2019, post-financial crisis interconnectedness increased, raising network density from 0.48 to 0.58. During the period of 2000–2019, the GCNI underwent dynamic cluster adjustments, forming two distinct communities by 2019: an Asian community led by China and a cross-regional community led by the United States (US). China, Hong Kong, the US, Japan, South Korea, Germany, and Taiwan held central positions, with smaller economies acting as connectors in a core-periphery structure. These findings emphasize the need to strengthen global governance and foster cooperative emission reduction in the digital era.

与信息和通信技术相关的跨国企业（IMNEs）的快速扩张给减排带来了巨大挑战。本文利用多地区投入产出模型和复杂网络分析，研究了 2000 年至 2019 年由 IMNEs 驱动的全球二氧化碳排放转移网络（GCNI）。结果表明，2009 年至 2019 年间，金融危机后的相互关联性增加，网络密度从 0.48 提高到 0.58。在 2000-2019 年期间，GCNI 经历了动态的集群调整，到 2019 年形成了两个不同的群落：以中国为首的亚洲群落和以美国为首的跨区域群落。中国、中国香港、美国、日本、韩国、德国和中国台湾占据中心位置，较小的经济体在核心-外围结构中发挥连接作用。这些发现强调了在数字时代加强全球治理和促进合作减排的必要性。

As COVID-19 directly and indirectly affected a wide range of urban living and activity spaces, people's sense of place and human-place interactions in urban public spaces have attracted considerable interest from practitioners and scholars across various disciplines. Using a regression discontinuity in time design combined with natural language processing techniques, this study investigates how people's emotional experiences expressed in tweets within privately owned public spaces (POPS) changed following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in Manhattan, New York City. The findings indicate that while people using Twitter tended to express heightened negative sentiments overall after the pandemic outbreak, their sentiment levels within POPS exhibited a comparatively muted decline compared to those in other locations outside of the spaces. Recognizing POPS as potential sentimental respites and emotional buffers during such crises, this research provides insights for planning and public health interventions aimed at enhancing community well-being and resilience across geographically and socioeconomically diverse contexts.

由于 COVID-19 直接或间接地影响了广泛的城市生活和活动空间，城市公共空间中人们的场所感和人与场所的互动引起了各学科从业人员和学者的极大兴趣。本研究采用时间不连续回归设计，结合自然语言处理技术，调查了 COVID-19 在纽约曼哈顿大流行后，人们在私有公共空间（POPS）的推特中表达的情感体验发生了怎样的变化。研究结果表明，虽然在大流行病爆发后，使用 Twitter 的人们整体上倾向于表达更强烈的负面情绪，但与公共空间以外的其他地点相比，他们在公共空间内的情绪水平却呈现出相对温和的下降趋势。本研究认识到 POPS 在此类危机中是潜在的情感休憩场所和情感缓冲区，为规划和公共卫生干预提供了启示，旨在提高不同地域和社会经济背景下的社区福祉和复原力。

The current construction sector needs to include sustainability in the near future. The use of recycled aggregates (RA) instead of natural aggregates (NA) is proving to be an effective strategy to achieve more sustainable materials. In the case of Spain and within the agricultural sector, olive stones have great potential for use as RA, justified by several studies on their technical feasibility. This research evaluates environmentally through a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology the incorporation of ground olive stone (GOS) as a partial substitute for natural fine aggregate in 1m³ of mortar in different percentages. In a first phase, the environmental impacts are analysed with the scope of production of 1m³ of mortar (cradle to gate). Subsequently, a long-term assessment is carried out in the use phase to determine the environmental benefits of using the doped mortar in a façade for a new building. Among the most significant and innovative results, it is shown that for a doping percentage of 20 %, CO₂ emissions are reduced by 137.9 % for a simulation period of use of 35 years. This translates into preventing the net emission of 319.43 kg CO₂ eq/m³ of doped mortar into the atmosphere. In addition to avoiding the consumption of 3221.10 MJ/m³ of fossil fuels. All these results support the medium- and long-term environmental profitability of doping the mortar with GOS. Globally, it brings new environmental knowledge to the use of GOS as RAs over NAs and, jointly, to the sector's environmental sustainability objective.

当前的建筑行业需要在不久的将来实现可持续发展。事实证明，使用再生骨料（RA）代替天然骨料（NA）是实现材料可持续性的有效策略。在西班牙和农业领域，橄榄石作为再生骨料具有巨大的使用潜力，有关其技术可行性的多项研究也证明了这一点。本研究通过生命周期评估（LCA）方法，对在 1 立方米砂浆中以不同比例加入磨碎的橄榄石（GOS）作为天然细骨料的部分替代品进行了环境评估。在第一阶段，分析了 1 立方米砂浆生产（从摇篮到大门）对环境的影响。随后，在使用阶段进行长期评估，以确定在新建筑外墙中使用掺杂砂浆的环境效益。其中最重要和最具创新性的结果表明，如果掺杂比例为 20%，在 35 年的模拟使用期内，二氧化碳排放量可减少 137.9%。这意味着每立方米掺杂砂浆可避免向大气净排放 319.43 千克二氧化碳当量。此外，还避免了 3221.10 兆焦耳/立方米化石燃料的消耗。所有这些结果都证明了在砂浆中掺入 GOS 的中长期环境效益。在全球范围内，它为使用 GOS 作为 RA 而不是 NA 带来了新的环境知识，同时也为该行业的环境可持续发展目标带来了新的环境知识。

The emergence of text analytics through deep learning has unlocked a myriad of possibilities for automating administrative tasks within both corporate and governmental settings. This paper presents a novel framework designed to enhance environmental impact assessment systems. Specifically, we focus on predicting the involvement of environmental regulatory agencies in industrial projects based on project content. To tackle this challenge, we develop advanced transformers within a multilabel framework, incorporating class weights to address class imbalance. Experimental results using the Chilean environmental impact assessment system show the efficacy of the framework, achieving an excellent F1 score of 0.8729 in a 14-class multilabel scenario. By eliminating the labor-intensive manual process of inviting government agencies and allowing them to opt out of evaluating specific projects, we significantly reduced project assessment times.

通过深度学习实现的文本分析技术的出现，为企业和政府机构的行政任务自动化带来了无数可能性。本文提出了一个新颖的框架，旨在增强环境影响评估系统。具体来说，我们重点关注根据项目内容预测环境监管机构在工业项目中的参与情况。为了应对这一挑战，我们在多标签框架内开发了高级转换器，并结合类权重来解决类不平衡问题。使用智利环境影响评估系统的实验结果表明了该框架的功效，在 14 个类别的多标签情景中，F1 得分为 0.8729，表现出色。通过消除邀请政府机构的劳动密集型人工流程，并允许他们选择不评估特定项目，我们大大缩短了项目评估时间。
