What turns us off about green and blue spaces in cities? Understanding perceived problems and unpleasant experiences for more just urban planning, design and management

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 7, Page 2393-2409, July 2026.
Abstract The planning, design and management of urban green and blue spaces necessitate trade‐offs between these spaces' many benefits and their drawbacks, but knowledge of perceived problems and unpleasant experiences in urban green and blue spaces remains limited.

Acute Inhalation Exposure to Ultrafine Carbon Black Alters Mitochondrial Substrate Utilization in the Heart

Environmental Toxicology, Volume 41, Issue 7, Page 395-406, July 2026.
ABSTRACT A majority of deaths associated with air pollution are attributed to cardiovascular and heart diseases. Carbon black that represents the carbon core of particulate matter, a major component of air pollution, has been shown to result in cardiac mitochondrial dysfunction.

Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Carbon Balance Considering Multi‐Dimensional Urbanization Across 366 Cities in China

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Low‐carbon sustainable development has become essential for China to achieve its carbon neutrality goals. However, most existing carbon balance (CB) studies overlook carbon quota allocation that reflects development needs during urbanization, leading to assessments of urban low‐carbon development that may lack scientific rigour and fairness ...

Refined Modeling of Arctic Circumpolar Building Stock Increases Estimated Mid‐Century Permafrost Degradation Damages

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Near‐surface permafrost degradation has the potential to damage infrastructure needed to sustain Arctic communities, but risk assessments remain highly uncertain due to a limited representation of the Arctic circumpolar building stock. With deep learning building footprint detection and building occupancy classification models, we expand the ...
