Abstract: Cities are concentrators of complex, multi‐sectoral interactions. As keystones in the interconnected human‐Earth system, cities have an outsized impact on the Earth system. We describe a multi‐lens framework for organizing our understanding of the complexity… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-025-57897-1
Abstract: Information about the likelihood of various outcomes is needed to inform discussions about climate mitigation and adaptation. Here we provide integrated, probabilistic socio-economic and climate projections, using estimates of probability distributions for key parameters in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41597-025-04723-4
Abstract: Soil and vegetation carbon stocks play a critical role in human-Earth system models. These stocks (denominated as densities in MgC/ha) affect variables such as land use change emissions and also influence land use change pathways… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41597-025-05087-5
Abstract: Human activities such as food production, mining, transportation, and construction have extensively modified Earth’s land and marine environments, causing biodiversity loss, water pollution, soil erosion, and climate change. However, studying spatial aspects of the relationships… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/lcsys.2024.3413392
Abstract: This letter proposes a feedback control perspective for Human-Earth Systems (HESs) which essentially are complex systems that capture the interactions between humans and nature. Recent attention in HES research has been directed towards devising strategies… read more here.
