University contributions to sustainability via state-level climate action plans in the USA
Purpose The purpose of this study was to conduct a preliminary analysis of the role of higher education institutions (HEIs) in state climate science assessment (CSA) and state climate adaptation plan (CAP) development in the USA. Design/methodology/approach This study uses a content review of US state government and land grant (LG) university websites, including 36 CSAs and CAPs. These data informed the development of a tiered conceptual model of…
Fire reduces riverine DOC concentration draining a watershed and alters post-fire DOC recovery patterns
The loading of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) from soils to inland waters and ultimate transport to the ocean is a critical flux pathway in the terrestrial biosphere carbon cycle. Fires can significantly affect this flux through biogeochemical processes related to oxidation and mobilization of DOC in the soil. Therefore, in order to accurately estimate and model terrestrial carbon storage and export to the marine environment, we need to better un…
Air pollution success stories in the United States
We summarize past examples of the use of science to document the effectiveness of policy in air quality management. Our goal is to inform public discourse amidst attempts to negate the relevance and value of scientific data and fact-based analysis in favor of partisan opinion and ideology. Although air quality is fundamental to environmental and human health, air pollution has degraded natural systems and reduced economic and cultural benefits an…
Increasing Returns, Comparative Advantage, and History
Natural resource endowment is a necessary but insufficient condition to explain the formation of a durable mining city. This article focuses on the dynamic and endogenous factors that give rise to increasing returns to scale as a key element in understanding the formation and sustainability of this type of urban agglomeration. It is also necessary to consider historical perspectives to overcome the limitations of location theory and the "new" eco…
