Cleaner Waste Systems

ISSN: 2772-9125

Cleaner Waste Systems focuses on strategies that can foster waste prevention, optimize management, promote recirculation of matter and energy, and facilitate transition from linear approach to circular economy. Cleaner Waste Systems publishes current research on waste management solutions and policies, education, and economic and environmental assessments and aims to offer an interdisciplinary overview of recent research encouraging discussion and debate on how to achieve Cleaner Waste Systems from government, business, academia and society. The journal provides a key platform for publishing high-quality interdisciplinary papers on research and practice in the field, also including theoretical theses and innovative strategies as well as case-studies from practitioners. It looks outstandingly at the patterns of waste treatment to help identify more-sustainable solutions for waste systems and influence the so-called "end of life" of many products and flows. Though open to all scientific backgrounds, Cleaner Waste Systems will privilege contributions aimed at tackling the problem of waste generation and treatment under a systemic and relational viewpoint rather than devoted to a single molecule, process, product type, technology, in isolation from the context. The scope includes (but is not limited to) the following topics, where the cleaner and sustainability dimensions are explicitly treated: Generation and characterization Minimization Relevance to carbon peak and carbon neutrality Circular economy Recycling, reuse and remanufacturing Storage, collection, transport, and transfer Treatment solutions (mechanical, biological, chemical, thermal, other) Final disposal Environmental, and Life Cycle Assessments Accounting systems and flow analysis Economic analysis Policy and regulations Governance Education, social and engagement initiatives Sustainable planning and systems approach We encourage those interested in organizing a special issue or a virtual special issue within the scope of the journal to fill out this form and contact the editors-in-chief for more information.

Climate Change Ecology

ISSN: 2666-9005

The journal Climate Change Ecology is an Open Access journal for terrestrial, marine, and freshwater ecological research looking at ecosystem adaptations or responses to anthropogenic climate change. Increasingly climate research is focused on the complexity of processes and responses across trophic webs and networks, highlighting how individual species' response to climate change effects its ecological system. As modeling has grown increasingly sophisticated, data from multiple actors in ecological networks leads to a fuller picture of the nonlinear dynamics of ecosystem processes and also to a clearer understanding of predictive challenges. The scope of the journal will include issues like range shifts/invasions, novel ecological communities, ecophysiology (drought, wildfires, etc) and phenology (migration, reproduction, and asynchronicity), and a wide range of methodological approaches to describing spatial and temporal complexity will be encouraged. Climate Change Ecology will promote a holistic view of understanding ecological responses to a rapidly changing world. Paper Types will include Research Articles, Review Articles, Perspectives, Case Studies/Short Communications, and Policy Analysis.

Climate Risk Management

ISSN: 2212-0963
5 Year impact factor: 6.1
Impact factor: 4.4

Climate Risk Management publishes original scientific contributions, state-of-the-art reviews and reports of practical experience on the use of knowledge and information regarding the consequences of climate variability and climate change in decision and policy making on climate change responses from the near- to long-term. The concept of climate risk management refers to activities and methods that are used by individuals, organizations, and institutions to facilitate climate-resilient decision-making. Its objective is to promote sustainable development by maximizing the beneficial impacts of climate change responses and minimizing negative impacts across the full spectrum of geographies and sectors that are potentially affected by the changing climate. Therefore, the scope of Climate Risk Management covers: Observed relationships between climate conditions and consequences in human and/or natural systems across multiple space and time scales; Risk assessment and risk management approaches for climate-sensitive sectors such as agriculture, forestry and fire management, health, mining, natural resources management, water management, the built environment, and tourism; Analysis of relevant institutional developments and arrangements relevant to adaptation; and Exploration of connections between climate risk management, disaster risk management, and sustainable development. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: The application of seasonal forecasting and regional climate change projections in the assessment of climate change vulnerability and risk; Capacity building; Infrastructure design; Management and systematic reduction of climate-induced hazards and disasters; Protection of lives, livelihoods and property; Mitigation of environmental damage; Sustainable resource use and production; Impacts, vulnerability and adaptation at individual, community and institutional levels; Regulatory risks associated with climate change; Climate-sensitive interactions between economic, environmental and social systems; and Monitoring and evaluation of climate risk management. Research papers should consider the practical application of the thesis advanced through case studies, experiments, or systematic comparisons with existing approaches. Special issues devoted to topics of particular interest will be published on an occasional basis, and proposals for such issues are invited. Submission of multi- and interdisciplinary studies, particularly those involving economics and the social sciences, is encouraged. Intending authors should also note that there is a complementary journal: Climate Services. Climate Services focuses solely on the use and usability of climate information for adaptation. It bridges the gap between information from climate change research and stakeholder action, and directly refers to how climate information can be applied in methodologies and tools for adaptation to climate change.
