  • Using a dedicated adaptation financing process to close subnational adaptation finance gaps in Europe

    Open AccessKit England, Paul Watkiss et al.ARTICLEEcological Economics2026

    There is a large finance gap between what countries and regions need for climate change adaptation and what is being supplied. Meeting regional adaptation needs is likely to require significant reform to subnational financing arrangements. In this context, institutions are developing new approaches, but these remain underexplored in the literature. In the mainstream climate finance discourse, the development of Adaptation Investment Planning (AIP…

  • Perceptions of the safety, development, and approval process of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (Sars-CoV-2) vaccines among individuals with Affordable Care Act health insurance in Cen…

    Open AccessCarlos Lopez Bray, Richard Taylor et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2025

    Sendero Health Plans, an Affordable Care Act (ACA) health insurance company, conducted a cross-sectional survey in December 2020 to assess individual perceptions of the COVID-19 vaccine development and approval processes and their plan to obtain the COVID-19 vaccine in Central Texas at the time of initial availability. A logistic regression model was developed to identify factors associated with individual plans to obtain a vaccine when it became…

  • Fractal complexity in visual nature

    Open AccessAmari Davison, Sara Barrón et al.ARTICLETrees Forests and People2025

    Moderate fractal complexity ( D = 1.3–1.5) enhances leaf shape preference. • Moderate complexity preferences align with the Fractal Fluency Model. • Leaf shape preferences vary, affecting excitement, interest and relaxation ratings. • Findings offer valuable insights for urban forestry and biophilic design. Biophilic design posits that incorporating natural materials and patterns can improve feelings of restoration and well-being in built environ…

  • Cause specific mortality across the lifespan for Fiji’s major ethnic sub-populations 2013-17

    Open AccessCatherine Dearie, Christine Linhart et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2025

    LE was higher for FID than i-Taukei females, but similar for males of both ethnicities. CVD was the leading UCoD for both sexes and ethnicities, followed by cancer for i-Taukei males and females, diabetes for FID females and external causes for FID males. Public health interventions aligned with ethnic differences in major causes of death are needed to achieve equitable health outcomes and improved LE in Fiji

  • Effects of inappropriate cause-of-death certification on mortality from cardiovascular disease and diabetes mellitus in Tonga

    Open AccessCarah Figueroa, Carah A Figueroa et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2023

    Diabetes reporting in Part 1 of the MCCD, without potentially fatal diabetes complications, has led to over-estimation of diabetes, and under-estimation of CVD, as UCoD in Tonga. This indicates the importance of controlling various modifiable risks for atherosclerotic CVD (including stroke) including hypertension, tobacco use, and saturated fat intake, besides obesity and diabetes. Accurate certification of diabetes as a direct cause of death (Pa…

  • Maternal Mortality in a Rural District of Pakistan and Contributing Factors

  • Structured output methods and environmental issues

    Open AccessRichard Taylor, John Forrester et al.ARTICLEHumanities and Social Sciences…2022

    Participatory methods for researching human–environmental interactions seek detailed inputs on all manner of issues, but the outputs are often only understandable to the technically literate. On the other hand, participatory methods that involve the co-design of structured outputs (maps, models, games, stories, etc.) can be used to represent and integrate the knowledge and views of participants authentically and can be interpretable to both ‘scie…

  • Using Health Insurance Network Provider Data and Public Data Sets to Identify Sars-CoV-2 Vaccinators in the USA

    Open AccessJohn R Litaker, Naomi Tamez et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2021

    Objective: Mass vaccination planning is occurring at all levels of government in advance of regulatory approval and manufacture of a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine for distribution sometime in 2021. We outline a methodology in which both health insurance provider network data and publicly available data sources can be used to identify and plan for SARS-CoV-2 vaccinator capacity at the county level. Methods: Sendero Health Plans, Inc. provider network data, T…

  • Sociodemographic Factors Associated with Vaccine Hesitancy in Central Texas Immediately Prior to Covid-19 Vaccine Availability

    Open AccessJohn R Litaker, Naomi Tamez et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2021

    Vaccine-induced herd immunity remains the best opportunity for ending the COVID-19 pandemic. However, COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy is a real concern. In this paper, we report on vaccine hesitancy in Central Texas immediately prior to the release of the two mRNA COVID-19 vaccines in late December 2020. A total of 1648 individuals 18 years or older with health insurance living in Central Texas completed a survey on sociodemographic factors and plans …

  • Trends in mortality and life expectancy in Fiji over 20 years

    Open AccessCatherine Dearie, Christine Linhart et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2021

    Based on empirical data, LE in Fiji has minimally improved over 1996-2017, and is lower than some international agencies report. Adult mortality was higher in Indian than i-Taukei men, and higher in i-Taukei than Indian women. Exclusion of stillbirths resulted in IMRs lower than previously reported. Differing mortality trends in subgroups highlight the need to collect census and health data by ethnicity and sex, to monitor health outcomes and inf…

  • Mortality in Tonga over three triennia, 2010–2018

    Open AccessCarah Figueroa, Christine Linhart et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2021

    Life expectancy in Tonga over 2010-2018 has remained relatively low and static, with low IMR and U5MR, indicating the substantial impact from premature adult mortality. This analysis of empirical data (> 95% complete) indicates lower LE and higher premature adult mortality than previously reported by international agencies using indirect and modelled methods. Continued integration of mortality recording and data systems in Tonga is important for …

  • A data-driven classification of outcome behaviors in those who cause concern to British public figures

    Caitlin Clemmow, Paul Gill et al.ARTICLEPsychology Public Policy and Law2021Referências: 4

    Fixated individuals pose a significant threat to public figures. Previous research compares individuals labeled ‘approachers’ to those labeled ‘communicators.’ Typically, such studies compare a number of risk factors among the two groups to identify significant differences. This has impactful implications for the threat assessment and management of the pathologically fixated. The present study builds upon this established body of work by consider…

  • Modelling stakeholder agency to investigate sustainable charcoal markets in Kenya

    Open AccessRichard Taylor, Hannah Wanjiru et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Innovation and…2020Citada por: 2Referências: 45

    As cities in East Africa keep growing, so too will demand for charcoal – the region's preferred urban fuel – placing increasing pressure on rural landscapes where it is produced. How can charcoal production and supply be made sustainable? What are the implications of sustainable charcoal policies and practices for achieving a low-carbon pathway and protecting the environment? This paper presents case study research focusing on Kitui County, one o…

  • Lessons from Bali for small-scale biogas development in Indonesia

    Open AccessMariana Silaen, Richard Taylor et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Innovation and…2020Citada por: 4Referências: 24

    Being dependent on fossil fuels, Indonesia faces challenges in incorporating renewables into its energy supply, which hampers to achieve the NDC target of 26% emission reduction. We investigate how biogas could contribute to a low-carbon transition pathway as cooking fuel, especially through the national mid-term development planning. Using mixed-methods and stakeholder engagement, we conducted transdisciplinary research to advance knowledge on b…

  • Changes in proportional mortality from diabetes and circulatory disease in Mauritius and Fiji

    Open AccessStephen Morrell, Richard Taylor et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2019

    Large, abrupt changes in diabetes and circulatory disease proportional mortality in Fiji and Mauritius coincided with the local introduction of ICD-10 coding in different years. There is also evidence for diabetes-related misclassification of underlying cause of death in Australia and the USA. These artefacts can undermine accurate monitoring of cause of death for evaluation of effectiveness of prevention and control, especially of circulatory di…

  • Emergency department encounters for opioid abuse, adverse events, poisoning, and dependence among members of a community-based health insurance plan—Central Texas, 2016–2018

    Open AccessJohn R Litaker, Naomi Tamez et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2019

    Health insurance claims data from a community-based health plan can be used as a source of local information by policy makers and officials as they seek to address the impact of opioid abuse, adverse events, poisoning, and dependence in Central Texas as national data may not represent the local impact of this epidemic

  • Under-estimation of maternal and perinatal mortality revealed by an enhanced surveillance system

    Open AccessJasim Anwar, Siranda Torvaldsen et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2018

    Extension of coverage and improvement in completeness through reconciliation of data from health information systems is possible and required to obtain accurate maternal, perinatal and neonatal mortality for assessment of health service interventions at a local level

  • Confluence of suicide and drug overdose epidemics in young Australian males

    Open AccessRichard Taylor, Andrew Page et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2018

    The coincidence of young male suicide and drug overdose mortality epidemics over the study period (excess deaths: 5000) suggest related causality such as exposure to common factors, including the labour market liberalisation and de-regulation of the 1990s, and deserves further investigation

  • Continued increases in blood pressure over two decades in Samoa (1991–2013); around one-third of the increase explained by rising obesity levels

    Open AccessChristine Linhart, Take Naseri et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2018

    Significant increases have occurred in SBP/DBP and hypertension prevalence in both sexes in Samoa during 1991-2013, which would contribute significantly to premature mortality from cardiovascular disease. Obesity accounts for around one-third of the rising trend in blood pressure in the Samoan population. Strengthening of population control of hypertension through reduction in obesity and salt intake, and case detection and treatment through prim…
