Nature Climate Change, Published online: 16 November 2023; doi:10.1038/s41558-023-01865-4 Extreme weather event attribution techniques quantify anthropogenic contributions to extreme weather disasters, but recently it was argued they are not yet ready to inform decisions on loss and damage funding. Here, we assert that they can substantially help formulate allocations to impacted vulnerable countries for the…

Nature Climate Change, Published online: 16 November 2023; doi:10.1038/s41558-023-01864-5 The impact of climate change on soil carbon remains uncertain. This study shows that soil carbon in forests increases in response to elevated CO2, but the response to warming and nitrogen deposition depends on mycorrhizal associations, indicating a trade-off between soil and plant carbon.   

Nature Climate Change, Published online: 13 November 2023; doi:10.1038/s41558-023-01857-4 Neuroscience can help combat climate change by studying its impact on the human brain, adaptation strategies, decision-making processes and communication strategies. This Perspective outlines a roadmap towards these targets and calls on neuroscientists to join the fight against this global threat.

Nature Climate Change, Published online: 09 November 2023; doi:10.1038/s41558-023-01855-6 .Observations of glacier response to climate changes prior to the satellite era are sparse. Here the authors use historical aerial photographs to document change in peripheral glaciers in Greenland since 1890, providing enhanced confidence that recent changes are unprecedented on a century timescale.   

Nature Climate Change, Published online: 09 November 2023; doi:10.1038/s41558-023-01856-5 Aerial photographs collected during mapping expeditions of Greenland’s coastline represent the only robust, widespread observations of twentieth-century glacier change for this vast island. We use this unique dataset to document the response of Greenland’s peripheral glaciers to climate change over approximately 130 years, providing enhanced confidence…

As society adapts and transforms, the labour market will be altered as some established areas of employment will disappear and new areas will emerge that will need workers. Nature Climate Change

Here, the author assesses changes in these winds in the central USA and shows that they have intensified stronger than other extreme winds over the past decades, while the affected area increased 4.8-fold. Nature Climate Change  

Nature Climate Change, Published online: 02 November 2023; doi:10.1038/s41558-023-01802-5 The low-carbon transition would bring both challenges and opportunities for the labour market, which have important implications for a just transition. In the US power system, the lowest-skilled workers in fossil fuel-dependent states will face more uncertain employment and job training will be necessary. Nature Climate Change

Nature Climate Change, Published online: 02 November 2023; doi:10.1038/s41558-023-01850-x The global loss and damage fund is essential to provide support for climate-impacted groups and help their local initiatives for adaptation. Now, research focusing on the Vanuatu population highlights the necessity to put human rights as a central consideration for loss and damage fund agendas. Nature Climate…
