Practical Methodology for Developing Visions for Carbon‐Neutral Cities and Communities
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Cities and communities play important roles in sustainable development and climate change mitigation. This study presents a novel framework for developing carbon‐neutral visions for cities and communities. We established five “principles,” investigated options encompassing four parameters (management, goal setting, actions, and quantification),

The Anthropocene and the End of Nuclear Disaster: Normalizing the Fukushima Nuclear Accident
American Anthropologist, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article places the concept of disaster in critical dialogue with that of the Anthropocene, which introduces new imaginaries that negatively affect the governance of crises like nuclear accidents. I argue that tropes surrounding the Anthropocene can depict certain events as apocalyptic calamities while also portraying other events as mere “

Scale‐aware impact modelling for atmospheric releases of radioactive material
Weather, Volume 81, Issue 7, Page 205-211, July 2026.Since the Fukushima nuclear power plant disaster in 2011, the UK has developed the process of Joint Agency Modelling (JAM), which provides advice to government in case of atmospheric releases of radioactive material. The timely deployment of JAM requires a prior estimate of the extent to which impacts could reach. Thus, to develop a fast pre‐calculator

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.Using cafeteria‐style bait trials and GPS telemetry, we investigated scale‐dependent responses of invasive raccoons to baiting in a post‐nuclear‐disaster agricultural landscape in Fukushima, Japan. Baiting induced strong short‐term and daily‐scale attraction to trap sites but did not restructure long‐term space use, highlighting the need to balance ...
