Abstract The area used for mineral extraction is a key indicator understanding and mitigating the environmental impacts caused by extractive sector. To date, worldwide data products on do not report mining activities. In this paper, we contribute to filling gap presenting new set of extents derived visual interpretation satellite images. We delineated areas within 10 km buffer from approximate geographical coordinates more than six thousand active sites across globe. result global-scale...
Mining activities induce profound changes to societies and the environment they inhabit. With global extraction of metal ores doubling over past two decades, pressures related mining have dramatically increased. In this paper, we explore where growing has particularly taken effect. Using fine-grain data, investigate spatial temporal distribution nine (bauxite, copper, gold, iron, lead, manganese, nickel, silver zinc) across approximately 3,000 sites worldwide between 2000 2019. To approach...
The growing demand for minerals has pushed mining activities into new areas increasingly affecting biodiversity-rich natural biomes. Mapping the land use of global sector is, therefore, a prerequisite quantifying, understanding and mitigating adverse impacts caused by mineral extraction. This paper updates our previous work mapping sites worldwide. Using visual interpretation Sentinel-2 images 2019, we inspected more than 34,000 locations across globe. result is global-scale dataset...
Growing demand for minerals continues to drive deforestation worldwide. Tropical forests are particularly vulnerable the environmental impacts of mining and mineral processing. Many local- regional-scale studies document extensive, long-lasting on biodiversity ecosystem services. However, full scope induced by industrial across tropics is yet unknown. Here, we present a biome-wide assessment show where mine expansion has caused most from 2000 2019. We find that 3,264 km2 forest was directly...
We utilized various mouse models of IBD to demonstrate that TL1A expression on the surface DCs is increased in inflamed intestines. Moreover, Tl1a−/− naive CD4+ T cells exhibited impaired ability for Th1 or Th17 differentiation ex vivo, and ...The binding tumor necrosis factor–like cytokine 1A (TL1A) death receptor 3 (DR3) plays an important role interaction between dendritic (DCs) contributes intestinal inflammation development. However, mechanism by ...
Since 2015 there has been a proliferation of just transition policies and initiatives. As part the Just Transition Listening Project, launched by Labor Network for Sustainability in early 2020, we identified seven distinct cases USA. The diversity these calls an analytical scheme that can differentiate amongst transitions recognising policy, such as national or transnational Green New Deal, may be promising, but only some within country world political economy at expense others. This...
Background: In many low- and middle-income countries, household survey data help address health development challenges track achievements towards national objectives including the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Such are widely used trusted. Yet users often lack critical information about extent of errors where it matters most for human wellbeing – at district level, interventions usually implemented. To assess magnitude such problems, this study estimates types in nationally...
