Over the past decades, world has experienced increasing heatwave intensity, frequency, and duration. This trend is projected to increase into future with climate change. At same time, global population also increase, largely in world’s cities. urban growth associated increased heat core, compared surrounding areas, exposing residents both higher temperatures more intense heatwaves than their rural counterparts. Regional studies suggest that Asia Africa will be significantly affected. How many people may exposed levels of extreme events remains unclear. Identifying range number potentially populations where vulnerable are located can help planners prioritize adaption efforts. We project ranges at varying 2,100 for three periods time (2010–2039, 2040–2069, 2070–2099) using Shared Socio-Economic Pathways (SSPs) Representative Concentration (RCPs). hypothesize largest very warm Africa. Our projections represent warmest 15 days during these periods. By 2070–2099 period, exposure (>42°) exceed 3.5 billion, under sustainability scenario (RCP2.6-SSP1). The those cities climbs greater shares Southern tropical countries Western Central While this research demonstrates importance type change event, decision-makers only recently developing policies address heat. There an urgent need further area.

Migrate as a verb represents process where providing social services to migrants reduces their instability and discomfort with providers inclined pity or fear migrants. Consequently, learn form negative views of themselves, decreasing mental health. Considering migrate neglects the noun whom which migrant is heading—a person, place, thing, event, idea. Viewing migration noun-dependent, potentially identifiable self-directing seeking aid. This study examines examples five types nouns may conceptualize guide in narrative review Google Scholar search results “[noun-type] [whom] head migration” for each type regarding four relevant highest returned post-2020 reports. Examining health considers 2023 systematic place. The purpose investigate applicable if ultimately (or not) coping theory, contrasting problem-focused emotion-focused coping. such essential signifiers encourages migrants’ favorable identification. In recognizing intended self-direction migrant, improved supportable through appropriately available services.

Abstract This article explores the potential for development of a climate change–informed demography. Climate change impacts society in some ways that demographers are best suited to evaluate, providing setting advance foundational theories demographic change. By considering demography context and change, has expand scientific policy understanding human vulnerability while also advancing science. To explore demography, we first reflect on demography's roots consider how research not considered natural environment. Second, describe beginnings by into connections between environment fertility, mortality, health. Third, current at intersection highlighting theory successes opportunities resulting from key issues related maternal, reproductive, child health food insecurity. often reflects interdisciplinary engagement physical social sciences, where foundations underlie many approaches. Fourth, rapidly evolving data landscape increasing awareness inequalities pave way more complex dynamic modeling efforts (e.g., ecological systems‐based research). In this final section, highlight provided framing within using increasingly sophisticated methodological tools revisit models like transition. Together, these sections build an overarching linked change–demography–health agenda rooted past focused needs future.

Abstract Pacific islands and atolls face heightened climate risk due to low elevations limited resources. The question of (unin)habitability in these locations is often simplified characteristics hazard exposure, reinforcing assumptions inevitable mass migration. Here we use a multi-dimensional conceptualisation habitability, built from local knowledge, simulate habitability trends the Island nation Kiribati over coming century. We find that water insecurity will be driving factor loss, intensifying under extreme scenarios, while population pressures further constrain show regional disparities lead high internal migration rates, with movement national urban centres preferred abroad. Our work answers calls for holistic locally grounded understanding habitability. By identifying how drivers change time, offer insights targeted timely adaptation.

This study examines the essential and influential factors guiding international students' decisions to enroll in Malaysian universities, focusing on university attributes, economic considerations, host country policies, cultural stimuli, perceived skill acquisition. A quantitative research approach is adopted, combining Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) Necessary Condition Analysis (NCA) identify both (sufficiency) preconditions (necessity) for enrollment decisions. Data was collected through a cross-sectional survey of 400 students, with stratified random sampling ensuring proportional representation. Results show that characteristics, particularly academic quality institutional reputation, are crucial determinants necessary attracting applicants. differentiates between sufficient selection, offering insights policymakers educational institutions maintain sustainable growth.

People, communities, and regions around the world are being pushed to adapt as climate-related risks increase. Within both policy academic literature, planned relocation of communities is often viewed an adaptation option last resort, given that it can lead losses including attachment place, place-based cultural practices, identity. To date, however, few empirical studies have investigated diverse context-specific reasons for community reluctance relocate. This study aimed examine motivations behind people's decisions remain in locations at risk from climate change. Drawing on ethnographic data fieldwork undertaken 2021 Serua Island, Fiji, this shows how concept Vanua, a Fijian term refers natural environment, social bonds kinship ties, ways being, spirituality, stewardship, used by Indigenous people resist climate-driven relocation. Through exploring local decision-making, contributes small body research voluntary immobility context also discussions “decolonizing change” Pacific perspective while offering strong basis critically addressing mobility scholarship through narratives, values, worldviews. We highlight practice must better integrate understandings avoid potential maladaptation loss damage culture, livelihoods, networks. help develop more appropriate strategies Fiji beyond move, but mobility, warming world.
