“…Similarly the similar impact of globalization on CO2 emission can be also seen in the empirical studies of (Alola and Joshua 2020;Liu et al 2020;Shahbaz et al 2021). The study found a positive significant impact of economic policy uncertainty (POLU) on carbon emission in HGE's, similar to the studies of (Ashraf and Shen Sagi et al 2021). Thus, it is argued that financial inclusion and globalization improves while economic policy uncertainty damages the environment quality in HGE.…”

“…For example, Jiang et al (2020) explained that economic policy uncertainty (EPU) linked with an increase in state regulations, monetary, and fiscal policies influence the environment quality wherein individuals and organizations operate. Stronger EPU impacts macroeconomic variables, innovations, financial development, capital investment at the business level, firm profits and working capital, tourist industry, and economic growth according to empirical research (Adams et al 2020;Ashraf and Shen 2019;Sagi et al 2021). Al-Thaqeb and Algharabali (2019) explained that in recent globalized world, the importance of uncertainties in policies associated with economic decision is consider a significant factor.…”

“…Al-Thaqeb and Algharabali (2019) explained that in recent globalized world, the importance of uncertainties in policies associated with economic decision is consider a significant factor. Sagi et al (2021) argued that EPU has an influence on Carbon dioxide emissions thru the direct policies of the government that may enhance or impede environmental damages. While Das et al (2019) explained EPU as a factor of stock market, Xu et al (2020) analyzed business innovation, and Levenko (2020) addresses uncertainty as determinant of savings.…”

Environmental consequences of financial aspects, policy uncertainties and rapid globalization is the topic of intense debate in present years. However, this study contribute to existing literature in an innovative way. We classified the 33 OECD economies in two group’s lower globalized economies (LGE) and highly globalized economies (HGE), based on their level of globalization. Considering the cross-sectional dependency and slope heterogeneity in the data this study employed the Augmented Mean Group method to estimate the influence of financial inclusion, economic policy uncertainty and globalization on the environment quality of both groups for the period 1996–2019. The results revealed a negative significant impact of financial inclusion, while a positive significant impact of economic policy uncertainty on CO2 emissions in both groups, LGE and HGE. However the globalization estimated to have positive impact on CO2 emission in LGE’s, in HGE’s it is significantly impeding the CO2 emission. The interaction of globalization with financial inclusion and economic policy uncertainty respectively found negative and positive to effect the CO2 in both LGE’s and HGE’s. The study suggests that, LGE’s are need to prepare for economic globalization, move toward adopting energy-efficient technology and promote trade in less-polluting products in order to sustain their environment quality. The outcomes of this study are robust by employing different model specifications.

“…These findings shed lights on the decade‐long debate of whether soil carbonates and groundwater act as active carbon sinks or source (Ma et al., 2014; Sagi et al., 2021; Schlesinger, 1982; Schlesinger & Amundson, 2019; Schlesinger et al., 2009). Results here indicate that transition from droughts to storms can shift carbonate between a carbon sink and source via changing the carbonate reaction direction.…”

From Soils to Streams: Connecting Terrestrial Carbon Transformation, Chemical Weathering, and Solute Export Across Hydrological Regimes

Soil is the largest terrestrial carbon pool (Batjes, 2014). Vertical fluxes of CO 2 into the atmosphere have been extensively studied (e.g., Bond-Lamberty et al., 2020;Chapin et al., 2006;Jian et al., 2021). Lateral fluxes of dissolved organic and inorganic carbon (DOC and DIC) from terrestrial to aquatic systems have been increasingly recognized for emitting substantial amounts of CO 2 along river corridors (e.g., Barnes et al., 2018;Battin et al., 2009;Regnier et al., 2013). Vertical and lateral carbon fluxes, however, are often studied separately within disciplinary boundaries (Brookfield et al., 2021;Grimm et al., 2003). Their connections, partitioning, and relationship to carbon transformation across gradients of hydroclimatic and subsurface conditions have remained poorly understood. As a result, quantifications of carbon transformation rates and fluxes have remained highly uncertain (Duvert et al., 2018).Organic carbon (OC) transformation and chemical weathering (i.e., carbonate dissolution and precipitation) are key processes that produce dissolved and gaseous carbon and drive terrestrial carbon dynamics. Their rates depend on hydroclimatic conditions (Figure 1) that are bound to change under future climates with intensifying hydrological extremes including droughts and storms (Ault, 2020;Mastrotheodoros et al., 2020). Soil respiration rates often increase with temperature (Lloyd & Taylor, 1994) but peak at 50%-70% water saturation (Yan et al., 2018).

“…To promote a healthy environment, governments may employ a range of economic incentives. A study by Sagi et al (2021) demonstrates that economic-and-environmental policy uncertainty may directly affect carbon emissions and ecological sustainability through policies related to environmental protection. Specifically, EPU can affect ecology through the parts of environmental economic policies that involve basic ecological elements such as land, forests, water, and air.…”

COVID-19 has brought significant impacts on the global economy and environment. The Global Economic-and-environmental Policy Uncertainty (GEPU) index is a critical indicator to measure the uncertainty of global economic policies. Its prediction provides evidence for the good prospect of global economic and environmental policy and recovery. This is the first study using the monthly data of GEPU from January 1997 to January 2022 to predict the GEPU index after the COVID-19 pandemic. Both Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) models have been adopted to predict the GEPU. In general, the RNN outperforms the LSTM networks, and most results suggest that the GEPU index will remain stable or decline in the coming year. A few results point to the possibility of a short-term increase in GEPU, but still far from its two peaks during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic. This forecast confirms that the impact of the epidemic on global economic and environmental policy will continue to wane. Lower economic and environmental policy uncertainty facilitates global economic and environmental recovery. Economic recovery brings more opportunities and a stable macroeconomic environment, which is a positive sign for both investors and businesses. Meanwhile, for the ecological environment, the declining GEPU index marks a gradual reduction in the direct impact of policy uncertainty on sustainable development, but the indirect environmental impact of uncertainty may remain in the long run. Our prediction also provides a reference for subsequent policy formulation and related research.
