Heatwaves, are identified as prolonged durations of unusually high temperatures, which pose significant threats to human health, animal health and agriculture. With the increasing frequency and intensity of heatwaves driven by climate change, accurat...
This study investigates the long-term influence of climate change on the spatiotemporal dynamics of harmful algal blooms in lakes larger than 10 km² across the Yangtze River Basin from 1985 to 2022. Using Landsat satellite imagery, we quantified bloo...

Tropical frog species are known to exhibit high sensitivity to weather regime alterations, which leaves them vulnerable to ongoing climate change. This challenge is exacerbated by limited knowledge of species-specific responses to environmental chang...
BACKGROUND: The global malaria burden is characterized by economic, geographical, and climatic disparities, especially in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Moreover, meteorological factors have become increasingly important to understand the malaria burden i...
BACKGROUND: Climate change, driven by greenhouse gas emissions, threatens human health and biodiversity. While the digitalization of health care, including telemedicine and artificial intelligence, offers sustainability benefits, it also raises conce...

The Mount Kenya forest ecosystem (MKFE), a crucial biodiversity hotspot and one of Kenya's key water towers, is increasingly threatened by climate change, putting its ecological integrity and vital ecosystem services at risk. Understanding the intera...
Climate change is increasingly affecting the global water cycle. Developing high-quality climate-runoff relationship models can help assess its impact on surface natural runoff, thereby enhancing resilience to water resource risks. This study extends...
BACKGROUND: Public health has increasingly recognized the links between climate change and health, emphasizing the need to address related inequities. This is reflected in work led by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the UN Framework Co...
Social media has become a popular stage for people's views over climate change. Monitoring how climate change is perceived on social media is relevant for informed decision-making. This work advances the way social media users' perceptions and reacti...
Intensifying urban heat extremes require efficient mitigation strategies; therefore, we propose a methodological framework for optimizing the implementation of urban green and cool roofs to reduce heat stress while maximizing their cost-effectiveness...
