Predicting Urban Heat‐Related Illness Across U.S. Climate Regions and Demographics
Abstract We still know relatively little about how climate, demographics, built environment, and behaviors interact to drive hospitalizations during extreme heat events (EHEs). To address this paucity in understanding, we draw on extant literature to develop a transdisciplinary discrete event system dynamics (SD) modeling approach to address two ...

Assessing Intraurban Variation in Heat‐Attributable Health Burden to Inform Local Interventions
Abstract Extreme heat exposure leads to excess cardiovascular morbidity and mortality among older adults, but misalignment in the geographic scales of health data and intraurban heat exposure make it challenging to inform local interventions. We introduce an adaptable framework for developing health burden estimates at finer geographic scales by ...

The Decline of a Caldera‐Filling Glacier at Volcán Sollipulli, Chile
Abstract Southern Andean glaciers have undergone fast retreat in recent decades. This results in reduced freshwater storage, contribution to sea‐level rise, and locally to the formation of glacial lakes, that may pose the risk of glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs).

Abstract Global warming is causing rapid and profound impacts on northern ecosystems. Shifting precipitation, permafrost thaw, and rapid shrub advance into tundra environments are combining to alter stream temperature in uncertain ways. The expansion and increased abundance of shrub vegetation, termed shrubification, may moderate warming stream ...

Snow Gum Dieback Enhances Trunk Monoterpene Emissions in the Australian Alps
Abstract Canopy decline is increasingly prevalent in high‐elevation snow gum (Eucalyptus pauciflora) forests across the Australian Alps. This phenomenon, known as snow gum dieback, is associated with infestations by the wood‐boring beetle, Phoracantha mastersi.
