If you have an interest in editorial and a background in cities or urban related I encourage you to apply!
Calling all #Urban researchers: The Environmental Social Sciences Team at NatComms is looking for a new editor. Whether you love #Cities #Planning #Transportation #Energy or #Sustainability, applications are open now until Nov 15th. Apply here: springernature.wd3.myworkday…
What will happen to regional inequality in China by reaching national climate targets and #CarbonNeutrality? Check out this new work out in @NatureComms #EnvironmentalSocialScience nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
Aggressive or uniform actions on climate targets may exacerbate regional inequality and induce economic losses in China. The proposed collaborative strategy for #CarbonNeutrality can avoid up to 1.54% of GDP losses while 90% of provinces would gain. nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
Is the way we calculate #CarbonCredits with #Deforestation sufficient? Check out new work from @hcteohc, @lianpinkoh, and colleagues out now in @NatureComms nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
@hcteohc @lianpinkoh et al reveal variability in #Deforestation emission baselines used to derive #CarbonCredits, with median error at 0.778 times the actual rate showing the need for new methods to improve #CarbonMarket accuracy and reliability @NUSCNCS nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
Curious how the mass of our built environment compares to plant biomass in the USA? Check out this piece by @d__frantz et al in @NatureComms The denser the area, the less per capita burden of our built infrastructure #EnvironmentalSocialScience nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
.@d__frantz et al find most inhabited areas in the US have more mass in buildings and mobility networks than in plant biomass with cities comparably more resource efficient than rural areas @HumboldtEOLab, @BOKU_SEC See new paper and project website below nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
Interested in learning about the demographics of isolation from #SLR ? Check out new work from @BestKelsea et al now out in @NatureComms #EnvironmentalSocialScience nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
.@BestKelsea et al find the risk of isolation from #SeaLevelRise in the USA is expected to disproportionately affect racial minorities as well as communities with more renters, older adults, and lower-income populations @OSUengineering @KnowltonOSU nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
Very cool work on economically estimating mortality in European cities considering #UrbanHeatIslands out in @NatureComms #EnvironmentalSocialScience nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
Huang et al find that while #UrbanHeatIslands have the greatest acute impacts on human mortality risk during #ExtremeHeat, protracted cold seasons result in greater annual integrated protective effects in most Euro cities under the current climate #UHI nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
Cool work from @Donghyun55, @jeasurk, @nekozzang, @thejiheekim, @lion41511, @SungwonPark16, and colleagues looking at a human-AI collaborative computer vision algorithm for development patters in Asia with satellite images #EnvironmentalSocialScience nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
@Donghyun55, @jeasurk, @nekozzang, @thejiheekim, @lion41511, @SungwonPark16, et al produce grid-level econ stats with a human-AI computer vision algorithm using #SatelliteImages and light human annotation revealing granular development patterns in Asia nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
Great work from @ChenghaoW and colleagues on future urban building energy use! #EnvironmentalSocialScience nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
@ChenghaoW et al quantify mid-21st century hourly #BuildingEnergy, revealing spatially and temporally heterogeneous changes influenced by future climate, population dynamics, and electric power sector decarbonization @OUResearch, @OUAGS, and @stanforddoerr

Interesting new work on the toxicity in #EmissionsReduction in the iron and steel industries in China #EnvironmentalSocialScience
Li and colleagues find health-oriented #EmissionsReduction in China focusing on the #IronIndustry and #SteelIndustry can reduce costs by 1.56 billion dollars while lowering the population-weighted toxic potency-adjusted exposure risk nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
Last day of the #AdaptationFutures conference here in Montreal. What a fantastic forum to engage more with indigenous science, Canadian climate adaptation, and the global community! #AdaptationFutures2023
Excellent work from @mrfrank5790, @Jhyun_Lim, and @MichaelAklin on the #JustTransition of US fossil fuel workers! Check it out #EnvironmentalSocialScience nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
@mrfrank, @Jhyun_Lim, and @MichaelAklin explore the absorption of current US fossil fuel workers in emerging green jobs considering skills and location. They find location to be a barrier in a #JustTransition for these workers @PittTweet, @UNC, @EPFL_en nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
Interesting work on #TemporalCausation models and geographical convergent cross mapping! nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
#TemporalCausation models perform poorly in causal inference for variables with limited temporal variations. Chen et al establish a causal inference model to reveal the nonlinear complex casual associations based on cross-sectional #EarthSystem data. nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
If you haven't seen it yet, make sure to read this paper from @noelleselin, @minghao_qiu, and colleagues on how CO2 reductions in the USA can reduce #PM25 emissions but not fix racial/ethnic pollution exposure disparities! #EnvironmentalSocialScience nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
@noelleselin, @minghao_qiu, et al find that while U.S. climate policies can reduce #PM25 #AirPollutant emissions, near-term CO2 reductions alone are insufficient to address racial/ethnic disparities in pollution exposure @mitglobalchange @mitidss @tppmit nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
Great work from @climateploy @SEI_Erickson @CelineGuivarch @st_pye @ElinaBru and colleagues on the time scale of reducing fossil fuel production and use to achieve net-zero #EnvironmentalSocialScience
.@climateploy @SEI_Erickson @CelineGuivarch @st_pye @ElinaBru et al analyze #IPCC AR6 scenarios exploring how quickly coal, oil, and gas production and use need to be reduced in line with net-zero goals @SEIresearch @EcoledesPonts #EnergyTransition nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
Great work on the hydrogen transition out on @NatureComms nature.com/articles/s41467-0… #EnvironmentalSocialScience
New paper:
"Global land and water limits to electrolytic hydrogen production using wind and solar resources"
@TheRosaLab @CarnegieScience
nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
New work from @floegli, @omondi_agutu, @BjarneSteffen and others on electrifying sub-Saharan Africa #EnvironmentalSocialScience
.@floegli, @omondi_agutu, @BjarneSteffen, et al find solar-powered standalone systems drastically lower the cost of electrifying sub-Saharan Africa. #HouseholdElectrification can be provided at 7c USD per person per day on average. @ETH_EPG @ETH_CFP nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
Great work on reducing carbon emissions from @ParrishB and @cwarshaw out in Nature Communications! #EnvironmentalSocialScience
In the USA, @parrishb and @cwarshaw find stronger state climate policies reduce #CarbonEmissions without harming the economy, but these reductions are insufficient to meet the goals in the #ParisClimateAccord nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
Exciting work on reducing global emissions from concrete with methods that already exist! #EnvironmentalSocialScience
Olsson et al find that over 75% of CO2 emissions from global #ConcreteProduction could be cut with already implementable measures in improved material and #StructuralDesign @ucdaviscee nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
Great work by @_Helmut_Haberl, @efesce, @JuanAnt03863130, @WiedenhoferD, @ErbKarlheinz et al on energy demand and spatial patterns of settlements #EnvironmentalSocialScience nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
@_Helmut_Haberl, @efesce, @JuanAnt03863130, @WiedenhoferD, @ErbKarlheinz et al find spatial patterns of settlements strongly affect global #ResourceDemand with the influence on energy and #CO2Emissions almost as large as that of GDP @BOKU_SEC @DeptEconomiaURV @Smetschka
Exciting work from @marcfmuller, @Leo_Bertassello and others on #WaterStress and refugee patterns in Nature Communications!
While minimal in most host countries, water needed to produce food for refugees can have a large effect on #WaterStress in vulnerable countries find @marcfmuller, @Leo_Bertassello et al. Small changes to trade and resettlement can ease this unequal burden nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
