  • Extreme heat adaptation planning: A review of evaluation, monitoring, and reporting

    Open AccessMeghan T Holtan, Susan Spierre Clark et al.ARTICLEJournal of Environmental Planning…2026

    Extreme heat events are increasing in intensity and duration. Although heat adaptation planning is increasing across the US, the effectiveness of adaptation strategies across contexts remains unknown. Evaluation helps heat adaptation planners understand the impact of investments and increase accountability. To understand how evaluation is or is not happening in extreme heat planning, we purposively sampled and analyzed 65 plans that would likely …

  • Thermal insecurity: Violence of heat and cold in the urban climate refuge

    Open AccessZoé A HamsteadARTICLEUrban Studies2024Cited by: 9References: 42

    Often described as a silent killer or invisible threat, heat contributes to more fatalities than other types of climate change-exacerbated extreme weather, and the impacts are especially pronounced in racialised and segregated urban communities. In an era of climate urbanism, efforts to scientifically categorise heat and link heat to health impacts are helping to support early warning systems and urban investments in heat mitigation infrastructur…

  • Critical Heat Studies: Deconstructing Heat Studies for Climate Justice

    Open AccessZoé A HamsteadARTICLEPlanning Theory & Practice2023

    Emergent planning strategies to address heat-driven health inequities are informed by studies examining how these distributional concerns relate to the urban built environment. Through a critical review, I argue that this ‘heat scholarship’ largely operationalizes heat as a disembodied, depoliticized, and ahistorical entity detached from lived experiences that connect the built environment with people’s health. This paper makes contributions acro…

  • Thermally resilient communities: Creating a socio-technical collaborative response to extreme temperatures

    Open AccessZoé A Hamstead, Paul Coseo et al.ARTICLEBuildings and Cities2020Cited by: 4References: 7

    Extreme temperatures claim more lives than any other weather-related event, posing escalating socio-technical and governance challenges that few urban communities have addressed in a systematic, coordinated and comprehensive way. Scholars have only recently begun to investigate the granular scales at which distributions of thermal risk are produced, people’s individual subjective thermal experiences and environmental justice dimensions of the haz…

  • Using social media to understand drivers of urban park visitation in the Twin Cities, MN

  • Geolocated social media as a rapid indicator of park visitation and equitable park access

    Open AccessZoé A Hamstead, David Fisher et al.ARTICLEComputers Environment and Urban…2018

    Understanding why some parks are used more regularly or intensely than others can inform ways in which urban parkland is developed and managed to meet the needs of a rapidly expanding urban population. Although geolocated social media (GSM) indicators have been used to examine park visitation rates, studies applying this approach are generally limited to flagship parks, national parks, or a small subset of urban parks. Here, we use geolocated Fli…

  • A Quantitative Review of Urban Ecosystem Service Assessments: Concepts, Models, and Implementation

    Open AccessDwight Haase, Dagmar Haase et al.ARTICLEAMBIO2014

    Although a number of comprehensive reviews have examined global ecosystem services (ES), few have focused on studies that assess urban ecosystem services (UES). Given that more than half of the world's population lives in cities, understanding the dualism of the provision of and need for UES is of critical importance. Which UES are the focus of research, and what types of urban land use are examined? Are models or decision support systems used to…

  • Urban Ecosystem Services for Resilience Planning and Management in New York City

    Open AccessTimon Mcphearson, Zoé A Hamstead et al.ARTICLEAMBIO2014Cited by: 11References: 20

    We review the current state of knowledge about urban ecosystem services in New York City (NYC) and how these services are regulated, planned for, and managed. Focusing on ecosystem services that have presented challenges in NYC-including stormwater quality enhancement and flood control, drinking water quality, food provisioning and recreation-we find that mismatches between the scale of production and scale of management occur where service provi…
