Also, there has been an increasing number of quantitative studies investigating the connection between climate change and human societies in academia. Given this background, the Atmosphere Special Issue "Climate Change, Climatic Extremes, and Human Societies in the Past" aimed to highlight the major aspects of the climate-society nexus in ancient and recent human history. There are eight papers based on quantitative approaches to illustrate different forms of climate-society nexus in ancient, historical, and contemporary periods. Regarding ancient periods, the interconnection among climate, agriculture, and human societies is focused. Regarding historical periods, the non-linear and complex relationship between climate change and the positive checks (wars, famines, and epidemics) in historical China and pre-industrial Europe is revealed. Regarding contemporary periods, the papers focus on weather-related phenomena that significantly affect human societies. The complexity of those phenomena is also highlighted. The associated findings can help human societies to mitigate the adverse impacts of weather extremes better. This special issue contributes to the field of quantitative analysis of the climate-society nexus, both theoretically and methodologically, which could facilitate a more fruitful discussion about the climate-society nexus.Research & information: generalbicsscbronze agecarbon and nitrogen stable isotope ratiosclimate changecorrelation dimension methoddecision treedirect and indirect effectsdroughtEmerging Hot Spot AnalysisGeogdetector methodGlobal Moran's Iheatwaveshierarchyhuman dietimperial Chinainteraction effectmachine learningmillet cultivationmulti-scalemultiple time scalesn/aNeolithic ChinaNorth China Famine of 1876-1879plagueprecipitationprecipitation predictionrandom forestregional interactionrice cultivationsoil moisture-temperature couplingStructural Equation ModellingwarYangtze River valleyYellow River valleyResearch & information: generalLee Harry Fedt1302218Lee Harry FothBOOK9910557473403321Climate Change, Climatic Extremes, and Human Societies in the Past3026263UNINA04982nam 2201237z- 450 991055734630332120220111(CKB)5400000000042427(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/76474(oapen)doab76474(EXLCZ)99540000000004242720202201d2021 |y 0engurmn|---annantxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierSustainable | Sustaining City StreetsBasel, SwitzerlandMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute20211 online resource (260 p.)3-0365-0934-8 3-0365-0935-6 Streets are an integral part of every city on Earth. They channel the people, vehicles, and materials that help make urban life what it is. They are conduits for the oft-taken-for-granted infrastructures that carry fresh water, energy, and information, and that remove excess stormwater and waste. The very air that we breathe-fresh or foul-flows through our street canyons. That streets are the arteries of the city is, indeed, an apt metaphor. But city streets also function as a front yard, linear ecosystem, market, performance stage, and civic forum, among other duties. In their various forms, streets are places of interaction and exchange, from the everyday to the extraordinary. As the editors affirm, the more we scrutinize, share, and activate sustainable approaches to streets, the greater the likelihood that our streets will help sustain life in cities and, by extension, the planet. While diverse in subject, the papers in this volume are unified in seeing the city street as the complex, impactful, and pliable urban phenomenon that it is. Topics range from greenstreets to transit networks to pedestrian safety and walkability. Anyone seeking interdisciplinary perspectives on what makes for good city streets and street networks should find this book of interest.Research & information: generalbicsscAHP methodair qualityAnalytical Hierarchy Process (AHP)black carbonbroken windows theorycommercial streetcomplex network theorycreative street regenerationcrime prevention methods through social development (CPSD)crime prevention through environmental design (CPTED)criminologydelinquencydensity threshold theoryemissions mitigationevidence based policyeye-trackingfear of crimegreen infrastructuregreen streetgreen streetsground floorshealthincivilitiesinnovationitineraries selectionknowledge-transferlogistics managementMalaysiameasurement technologymobile eye-trackingn/anetwork analysisnon-pedestrianised streetspaving designpedestrian behaviorpedestrian densitypedestrian mobilityPedestrian Priority Streetpedestrian safetypedestrian streetsperceptionplace attachmentplace identityPodgoricapublic transport networkquality of liferight-of-wayroutine activities theorysafe citiessafe streetsshared spacesignboardsocio-spatial sustainabilitystormwater managementstreet designstreet edgestreet lifestreetscapessustainabilitysustainable developmentsustainable mobilitytraditional city centretransdisciplinary collaborationurban areasurban neighbourhoodurban planningurban studiesurban sustainabilityurban visual pollutionvisual engagementVisual Pollution Assessment (VPA)Visual Pollution Objects (VPOs)walking environmentResearch & information: generalTamminga Kenedt1322904Knüvener ThomasedtTamminga KenothKnüvener ThomasothBOOK9910557346303321Sustainable | Sustaining City Streets3035244UNINA
