On the Field of Environmental Communication: A Systematic Review of the Peer-Reviewed Literature

The field of environmental communication has reached several milestones since the 1990s, particularly the establishment of environmental communication-related divisions at professional associations and the founding of the journal Environmental Communication in 2007. This systematic review characterizes the peer-reviewed literature on environmental communication to date, examining methods, geography, top-cited articles, and analyzing keyword and titles. Drawing on the Web of Science Core Collection, which archives the Social Sciences Citation Index and the Arts & Humanities Citation Index, the review finds that attention to environmental communication has exploded in recent years and that the field is methodologically open-minded. Scholars have shifted focus from general environmental risk to specifically climate change in the last decade. Implications for the field are discussed.     

Conservation perspectives of small-scale private forest owners in Europe: A systematic review

Private forest owners are the main forest ownership group within Europe, and important conservation values have been found on their land. Yet, small plot sizes, societal heterogeneity, and structural changes impede developing and implementing effective conservation programs in private forests. We present a systematic literature review focusing on small-scale private forest owners and their perspectives on nature conservation by synthesizing research approaches, social-ecological drivers, and policy recommendations. Conservation perspectives were positively related to female gender, higher levels of education, formalized forest management, an active relation to the forest, and ecological values of the property. In contrast, high age, rural orientation, economic forest management factors, large parcel size, and economic and sentimental property values negatively influenced conservation perspectives. Applying a natural resource conflict management framework, we synthesized recommendations covering three dimensions: substance, procedure, relationship. Considering perspectives of small-scale private forest owners in current forestry decision-making has great potential to strengthen sustainable forest management that integrates nature conservation and resource use.Supplementary InformationThe online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s13280-021-01615-w.     

国外棕地价值评估的方法与实践综述

在我国日益推进的城市化进程中,土地污染问题日益凸显,污染对于土地造成的价值损失也越来越引起人们的关注。因此,在土地的价值评估中如何纳入环境因素成为当前亟待解决的技术问题。而国外的棕地(即污染土地)价值评估起步较早,实践较为丰富,本文在参考大量外文文献的基础上,结合国外评估师的实践经验,对主要的国外棕地价值评估方法进行系统梳理总结,并针对市场比较法、收益还原法、成本逼近法和内涵定价法等四种不同方法的具体实践应用,筛选出有代表性的国外案例进行探讨,以期为国内的棕地价值评估提供方法与实践的参考。在此基础上,本文也就学术界的争论对棕地价值评估方法中的污名、清理期间和风险评估等三个方面的问题进行了总结和讨论,提出棕地价值评估对我国四个方面的启示和借鉴:重视环境因素,为促进和激励土地环境整治提供依据;出台相关政策,加强土地用途转换过程中的环境风险评估;公开环境数据,为棕地价值评估提供数据支撑;积累和借鉴经验,提高评估结果的准确性。     

城市生态地球化学研究进展

城市生态地球化学是研究城市生态系统各要素中元素或化合物的组成特征、来源、含量、形态、迁移转化规律及其对人类和其他生命体的生态(环境)效应的科学。随着城市环境问题的日益突出,城市生态地球化学成为环境保护领域新的研究热点之一,近年来,国内外在研究城市土壤及降尘中重金属和有机物的来源、时空变异性、形态分布、迁移转化及其生态环境效应等方面取得了一定进展,文章对此进行了较为系统的总结,分析了研究中存在的问题并指出了该领域今后的发展趋势和前景。

China＇s Total Emission Control Policy： a Critical Review

As part of a comprehensive environmental management system, many countries establish emission control targets for mass emissions of a pollutant. Such targets are often the key objective of an environmental policy, such as an emission trading program. In China, however, it is more than just an objective of one particular policy; it has become a concept that has influenced many national environmental policies and activities. The objective of this article is to review the implementation of the total emission control policy in the past 10 years and explore emerging issues in its implementation. The article has three sections： a summary of the implementation experience, issues with the design and implementation of the policy, and policy recommendations.     

河流生态系统指示生物与生物监测:概念、方法及发展趋势

综述了河流生物监测的概念、常用指示生物与监测指标、国外相对完善的技术体系及发展趋势。大型底栖动物、着生藻类、鱼类是河流生物监测中最常使用的指示生物,可以单独使用,也可结合使用,详述了这些类群在河流生态系统中的重要地位及用于生物监测的优点。常用的监测指标包括生物多样性指数、生物指数、多参数指数、多变量指数及功能性指数。许多国家和地区(如英国、美国、欧盟等)都已经将生物监测纳入水环境管理系统,并开发出自己的技术体系。未来的河流生物监测中,功能性指数的应用会越来越多,分子技术的介入也会为提高分类辨识度和检测遗传多样性提供更为有效的途径。最后,思考并总结了国内河流生物监测的现状及趋势。
