Focus and Scope
Journal of Environmental Science and Sustainable Development (JESSD) is a peer review and open-access journal that provide to be a platform for academics, practitioners, and community representatives to explore and exchange ideas on environmental science and sustainable development issues in developing countries in the Asia-Pacific region. The journal primarily focuses on environmental science, with an emphasis on environmental pollution and greener production, as well as sustainable development, particularly addressing points 6, 7, 11, and 14. However, the Editors welcome contributions from research that address both environmental science and sustainable development. JESSD aims to advance scientific knowledge and understanding of the theoretical, methodological approaches, and practical aspects of environmental science and sustainable development issues. It is published by the School of Environmental Science at Universitas Indonesia as a freely accessible journal, contributing to the current body of research in this field. JESSD scope encompasses two interconnected pillars: Environmental Science and Sustainable Development including:
Environmental Science
- Pollution monitoring and control technologies (air quality monitoring and management, water pollution assessment and treatment, soil contamination and remediation, and noise and vibration control)
- Advanced ecological systems analysis and biodiversity conservation
- Innovative clean technology and sustainable production methods
- Environmental toxicology and risk assessments
- Green chemistry and sustainable manufacturing processes
Sustainable Development
- Evidence-based conservation and resource management strategies
- Community-driven environmental initiatives and social innovation
- Environmental governance and policy frameworks
- Climate change adaptation and resilience building
- Ecosystem services and natural capital assessment
- SDGs 6 (Clean Water and Sanitation): Advancing innovative solutions for water resource management and sanitation technologies, including: water quality management and monitoring systems, innovative wastewater treatment technologies, water resource conservation and management, sanitation infrastructure development, community-based water management solutions, and water policy and governance frameworks.
- SDGs 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy): Pioneering research in renewable energy systems and energy efficiency, including: renewable energy implementation strategies, energy efficiency in society, clean energy technology adaptation, energy access and equity studies, smart grid development and integration, energy policy and sustainable transitions.
- SDGs 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities): Developing frameworks for urban sustainability and resilient community development, including Urban environmental management, sustainable infrastructure development, climate-resilient urban planning, green building initiatives, waste management systems, urban mobility solutions, community resilience strategies.
- SDGs 14 (Life Below Water): Protecting and preserving marine ecosystems through cutting-edge research, including: marine ecosystem conservation, coastal zone management, marine pollution prevention and control, sustainable fisheries practices, ocean acidification studies, marine biodiversity protection, coastal community development.
