Does education matter? - economic dependency ratios by education [PDF]

, 2018
When studying the economic consequences of changes in the age structure of the population, looking at economic dependency ratios provides us with some descriptive and intuitive initial insights. In this paper, we present two economic dependency ratios.

Analysis of the Spatial Pattern of Urban Expansion in African Countries Under Different Shared Socioeconomic Pathway (SSP) Scenarios

Land
Exploring the urban spatial pattern and expansion characteristics of African countries under shared socioeconomic pathways (SSPs) is crucial to optimizing urban development in Africa and ensuring ecological sustainability. We use land and socioeconomic panel data and the least squares dummy variable regression method to predict the urban land increment

Extremes in Southern Hemispheric Zonal Wave‐3 and Their Impact on Antarctic Sea‐Ice Thickness

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Zonal Wave‐3 (ZW3) is a key zonally asymmetric component of the large‐scale extratropical atmospheric circulation, facilitating mass and energy exchanges between middle and high latitudes in the Southern Hemisphere. Despite the crucial role of sea‐ice thickness (SIT) in modulating sea‐ice volume and climate feedbacks, its response to ZW3 ...

Integrating air pollution-health feedback into climate projections: towards endogenous environmental-social links in the integrated models

Environment International
Integrated assessment models (IAMs), often coupling Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) and Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs), simulate how socioeconomic drivers, technology, policy, and environmental processes interact over time.

Reductions in Anthropogenic Aerosol and Greenhouse Gas Drive Divergent Regional Impacts on Wildfire Risks in China Under Carbon Neutrality

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Understanding the impacts of future emissions reductions on wildfire risk is critical for climate adaptation under carbon neutrality scenarios. Here, this study investigates how reductions in aerosol and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions affect wildfire risk across major fire‐prone regions in China by using the coupled Community Earth System ...

Projected Global Diversity of Marine Heatwaves in the 21st Century

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Marine heatwaves (MHWs)—discrete and prolonged warm ocean temperature extremes—can pose serious threats to marine ecosystems. While the previous work of authors has highlighted the diversity of MHWs, future changes in six representative MHW types, under different climate change scenarios, are unknown.

The Future of Forest Microclimate in Southeast Asia

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Forest microclimates regulate biodiversity, ecosystem functioning, and species' thermal tolerance, yet tropical forest disturbances (logging, fire and fragmentation) increasingly disrupt these conditions. Southeast Asia, home to 15% of the world's tropical forests, faces rapid deforestation and degradation, but large‐scale changes in maximum ...
