Abstract
This academic recognition profile presents the research activities and scholarly indicators associated with Lina Khaddour of Edinburgh Napier University. The identified research area, sustainable climate-resilient built environment, addresses an interdisciplinary field concerned with the capacity of buildings, infrastructure, communities, and urban systems to respond to climate-related risks while supporting long-term environmental sustainability. Climate-resilient development increasingly requires integration of scientific evidence, engineering approaches, planning, adaptation, and sustainability principles.[2] The supplied bibliometric record identifies 16 documents, 73 citations, and an h-index of 5, providing measurable evidence of indexed scholarly output and citation activity.[1]
Keywords
Keywords: Lina Khaddour; Innovative Research Award; Sustainable Built Environment; Climate Resilience; Climate-Resilient Infrastructure; Sustainable Construction; Environmental Sustainability; Built Environment Research; Climate Adaptation; Edinburgh Napier University; Research Impact; Sustainable Development.
Introduction
The sustainable built environment has become an important research domain because buildings and infrastructure are closely connected with energy use, resource consumption, environmental pressures, public safety, and adaptation to changing climatic conditions. International assessments emphasize the need to strengthen climate adaptation and resilience while simultaneously reducing environmental impacts and supporting sustainable development.[2] Research in this area therefore commonly draws upon multiple disciplines, including architecture, engineering, environmental science, construction management, urban planning, materials research, and policy.
Research Profile
The supplied research profile identifies Lina Khaddour with Edinburgh Napier University and associates the researcher with the subject area of Sustainable Climate Resilient Built Environment. The corresponding Scopus author identifier is 57222185504, while the supplied publication metrics indicate 16 documents, 73 citations, and an h-index of 5.[1] These figures should be interpreted as bibliometric indicators rather than as a complete measure of research quality or societal value.
Research Contributions
The supplied subject classification places Khaddour’s research within a field that combines sustainability with resilience of the built environment. Research contributions in this area are relevant to the development of built systems capable of maintaining functionality and supporting communities under changing environmental conditions. The literature on climate-resilient development highlights the importance of integrating adaptation, mitigation, risk reduction, and sustainable development rather than treating these objectives as isolated activities.[2]
Publications
The supplied bibliometric information records 16 indexed documents associated with the Scopus author profile. A publication-level bibliography is not included in the source data provided for this article; therefore, individual article titles, journals, publication years, and authors are not reproduced here as factual claims. The Scopus profile provides the appropriate source for reviewing the researcher’s indexed publication record.[1]
Research Impact
The reported 73 citations and h-index of 5 indicate that the indexed publication record has received measurable scholarly attention within the citation databases represented by the supplied profile.[1] Citation indicators can assist in describing scholarly visibility, but they should be interpreted alongside publication quality, research contribution, collaboration, disciplinary norms, and broader academic or societal influence.
Award Suitability
The Innovative Research Award recognition profile is aligned with research areas in which interdisciplinary knowledge and evidence-based approaches can contribute to emerging scientific and societal challenges. Khaddour’s supplied subject area, sustainable climate-resilient built environment, corresponds to a research domain of contemporary relevance because climate adaptation and sustainable development increasingly require resilient approaches to buildings, infrastructure, and human settlements.[2]
Conclusion
Lina Khaddour’s supplied academic profile is associated with Edinburgh Napier University and the research area of sustainable climate-resilient built environments. The reported record of 16 documents, 73 citations, and an h-index of 5 provides a concise quantitative representation of indexed scholarly activity.[1] The research domain itself is closely connected with internationally recognized priorities concerning climate adaptation, resilient infrastructure, sustainable cities, and long-term environmental development.[2][3]
