Risk from responses to a changing climate
Effectively responding to intensifying climate change hazards requires identifying risks arising from each response, as well as risks arising from the dynamic interactions between responses. Using examples of managed retreat and solar geoengineering, we illustrate the importance of understanding…

Most Africans place primary responsibility for climate action on their own government
Abstract Global increase in the pace of climate action is urgent. Yet, it is less clear who citizens expect to take the lead on climate action across different regions of the world: historical emitters, their own governments, or themselves? Our analysis of Africa’s largest public opinion survey…

Mapping the global distribution of coastal World Heritage Sites: Glo-CoH, a new Global Coastal Heritage dataset
Abstract Coastal heritage sites face significant global challenges such as flooding and coastal erosion, exacerbated by climate-induced sea-level rise and coastal development. The ability to accurately simulate and assess potential exposure of heritage sites to these hazards has been hampered by a…

The land degradation and desertification-socioeconomic nexus in Egypt's delta region: A case study on Alexandria and Beheira
The Nile Delta is Egypt's primary source of agricultural production. However, the Delta's capacity to remain Egypt's vital source of food security, rural development and economic stability is diminishing amidst persistent climate change risks. In this regard, this research gauges the impacts of…

The potential effects of heat extremes on educational outcomes of children in low- and middle-income countries: a systematic review
Heat extremes related to climate change increase the exposure of children to non-optimal learning environments, which may threaten children’s educational achievement and a country’s sustainable development, especially in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). This is a systematic review of…

Critical science for the next decade of climate risk management
Escalating climate-related risks make climate risk management more important than ever. While research on climate risk management has generated substantial useful information on its potential, the practice of climate risk management has not yet fully operationalized this knowledge, and it has…

Curating transformation can strengthen adaptation and minimize losses and damages
Heritage conservation recognizes that losses and damages cannot be entirely prevented, that decisions about what to keep and what to let go are fundamental to maintaining values for future generations; even when what is valued is gone. The heritage principle of curating transformation can advance…

A framework for complex climate change risk assessment
Real-world experience underscores the complexity of interactions among multiple drivers of climate change risk and of how multiple risks compound or cascade. However, a holistic framework for assessing such complex climate change risks has not yet been achieved. Clarity is needed regarding the…
