"We show that the drastic increase in the human population at risk of exposure is partly due to historical changes in population density, but that climate change has also been a critical driver behind the heightened risk of WNV circulation in Europe."
Academic Hive Mind ! Do you have ressource on the energetical cost of open data policies?
A colleague of mine pointed out yesterday the energetical cost of publishing data alongside articles. Storing this (huge amount of) data on servers will require building new ones, powering them, etc.
I am aware of the positive side of it, but we must think of the effect of how we do science on the climate.
This was lovely. So well-deserved of its Ursula K. le Guin Prize win (and Philip K. Dick award nomination).
Near-future fiction at its best. I love well-done intertwined short stories like this. It may be a tad too optimistic about us humans, but it's nice to have a smidgen of hope.
"We document phases of instability and cooling from ~100 CE onward but more notably after ~130 CE. Pronounced cold phases between ~160 to 180 CE, ~245 to 275 CE, and after ~530 CE associate with pandemic disease, suggesting that climate stress interacted with social and biological variables."

"We thus model the committed evolution of all glaciers in the European Alps up to 2050 using present-day climate conditions, assuming no future climate change. We find that the resulting committed ice loss exceeds a third of the present-day ice volume by 2050, with multi-kilometer frontal retreats for even the largest glaciers."

"This article goes beyond the aggregated analysis to explore direct and indirect economic consequences of sea level rise (SLR) at regional and sectoral levels in Europe. Using a dynamic computable general equilibrium model and novel datasets, we estimate the distribution of losses and gains across regions and sectors."
"The Tropical Atlantic Ocean, the Mediterranean Sea, and southern oceans recorded their highest OHC observed since the 1950s. Associated with the onset of a strong El Niño, the global SST reached its record high in 2023 with an annual mean of ∼0.23°C higher than 2022 and an astounding > 0.3°C above 2022 values for the second half of 2023."
Really enjoyed my first class on #Energy and the #enviroment today, and am looking forward to hearing the results of my first assignment: have a conversation about #climate and report back to the class. Thanks to @kathhayhoe for pointing me to the #CimateOutreach resources!
Tornadoes, hurricanes, and wildfires have lingering effects. Economic losses via migration from disaster-affected areas increase the year of and after the disaster.
