“…These have posed adverse condition on aquatic habitability. More than 70% of wetland area has been converted to land, and existing wetlands have undergone into hydrological inconsistency, diminishing water depth, unpredictable water supply, and rising temperatures and all of these are detrimental to the aquatic environment in general and fish habitat in particular (Whitney et al 2020;Pandey et al 2021;Thaman 2021). Wetland loss and hydro-ecological alteration in existing wetland are caused by land use change, agricultural encroachment, built-up extension, fragmentation of wetland, loss of tie channels, and river flow reduction due to damming Islam, et al 2021;Pal & Paul 2020).…”

The present study attempted to investigate the changes in temperature conducive to fish habitability during the summer months in a hydrologically modified wetland following damming over a river. Satellite image-driven temperature and depth data calibrated with field data were used to analyse fish habitability and the presence of thermally optimum habitable zones in some fishes such as Labeo Rohita, Cirrhinus mrigala, Tilapia fish, Small shrimp, and Cat fishes. The study was conducted both at the water's surface and at the optimum depth of survival. It is very obvious from the analysis that a larger part of wetland has become an area that destroyed aquatic habitat during the post-dam period and existing wetlands have suffered significant shallowing of water depth. This has resulted in a shrinking of the thermally optimum area of fish survival in relation to surface water temperature (from 100.09 km2 to 74.24 km2 before the dam to 93.97 km2 to 0 km2 after the dam) and an improvement in the optimum habitable condition in the comfortable depth niche of survival. In the post-dam period, it increased from 75.49 % to 99.765%. Since the damming effect causes a 30.53 to 100% depletion of the optimum depth niche, improving the thermal environment has no effect on fish habitability. More water must be released from dams for restoration. Image-driven depth and temperature data calibrated with field information has been successfully applied in data sparse conditions, and it is further recommended in future work.

The increasing urbanization and growth of cities worldwide have led to a significant increase in energy demand. As a transition to a low carbon environment occurs, the role of renewable and sustainable energy systems in urban areas is benefiting industry and the environment alike. From this perspective, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have a lot to offer to the energy industry, particularly the integration of renewable and sustainable energy systems for environmental protection in cities. This study presents a comprehensive view that integrates technological, economic, political, and social challenges confronted with the effective implementation of renewable and sustainable energy in urban cities and proposes a solution agenda to overcome these hurdles with the aid of the SDGs. The weights for the challenges of adopting renewable and sustainable energy systems were determined using the Fuzzy Best-Worst Method. The SDGs were then ranked using the fuzzy TOPSIS technique to overcome predetermined challenges. The originality of this study lies in finding solutions to the determined challenges by adopting SDGs, emphasizing the need for integrated solutions that address energy-related concerns, and highlighting the role and importance of SDGs in environmental protection. The study highlights the importance of SDGs in promoting renewable energy integration in urban areas, with SDG 11 being the most crucial to mitigate harmful environmental occurrences related to energy-related issues in urban areas, followed by SDG 7 and SDG 13.
