There is limited focus on the water-energy-food (WEF) nexus approach at local scale, particularly considering social contexts of neglected territories. To contribute to this debate, we propose a framework address topic in an area Angra dos Reis, Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil, as case study. A survey was conducted regarding residents’ perceptions, choices, practices and access water, energy, food...

In the study of water–energy–food nexus (WEF nexus), importance intensity and quantity index system has been widely recognized. order to impact WEF on economy, this paper establishes an a system, taking account environmental pollution. Using DEA model China’s provincial data from 2019, calculated efficiency with developed systems. The results show that is not high in areas economic development ...

Eupatorium fortunei has long been used to treat nausea and poor appetite, and has been prescribed as a diuretic and detoxifying drug in Chinese medicine. Recent studies have demonstrated that E. fortunei possesses anti-bacterial, anti-oxidant, and anti-diabetic activities, as well as cytotoxicity to human leukemia cells. However, at non-toxic concentrations, the effects of an aqueous extract of...

The historic pandemic faced by the international community today boldly demonstrates complexity and interconnectedness of resource challenges we must better understand address in future. Further is observed when accounting for impact compounded shocks related to natural disasters forced migration around world. Effectively addressing these requires development research that cuts across disciplin...

Abstract Factors such as climate change, economic development, population growth, pandemics, and geopolitical instability threaten water, energy, food (WEF) security, which consequently put sustainability at risk. However, studies that simultaneously consider WEF security aspects still need improvement. This research aimed to build a sustainable nexus framework analyze the interrelationships am...

In social-ecological systems, natural resource management can be characterized by trade-offs across sectors and sustainability targets. The water-energy-food (WEF) nexus concept makes explicit various in order to maximize synergies of interventions. However, there are few successful examples its operationalization research settings. Here, we explore a learning setting if impact assessment (SIA)...

The Water–Energy–Food (WEF) Nexus framework for holistic sustainable development has spawned independent and academic communities around the globe that utilize in research, implementation, policy development, technological advancement. These communities, however, are geographically topically segmented lack large-scale databasing clearly catalogs classifies their work. Recognizing this need, WEF...

With the recent increase in utility-scale wind energy development, researchers have become increasingly concerned how this activity will affect wildlife and their habitat. To understand the potential impacts of wind energy facilities (WEF) post-construction (i.e., operation and maintenance) on wildlife, we compared differences in activity centers and survivorship of Agassiz's desert tortoises (...

Resilience thinking is increasingly promoted to address some of the grand challenges 21 st century: providing water, energy, and food all, while staying within limits Earth system that undergoing (climate) change. Concurrently, a partially overlapping body literature on water–energy–food (WEF) nexus has emerged through realization systems are intricately linked—and should therefore be understoo...

This paper presents knowledge gaps and critiques on the water–energy–food (WEF) nexus that have emerged since concept of WEF was proposed by World Economic Forum Bonn 2011 Conference. Furthermore, this study analyses current innovations concept, applications, impacts during period 2012–2020. begins reviewing ten frameworks developed international organizations researchers. On basis, several omi...
