Randrup). This Special Issue will feature original research, reviews, and synthesis studies. These manuscripts will contribute to the Special Issue by illustrating general theories and methods, generating and analyzing natural and social datasets, developing integrated modeling techniques, and presenting state-of-the-art research results. We believe that this focus issue will play a pivotal role in deepening our understanding of current knowledge, research gaps, and future research needs for nature-based solutions in response to global change. Three main topic areas of Environmental Research will be addressed by this SI, including: - Global warming/climate change - Air, soil, and water pollutants and health - Risk analysis, risk assessment and risk management, and public health The manuscript submission deadline is September 30, 2016.
