It's raining babies? Flood exposures and fertility in Bangladesh by Thiede, Brian C., Chen, Joyce J., Mueller, Valerie, Hultquist, Carolynne, Salim, Zarmeen

“…An abundant demographic literature examines the impacts of climatic and environmental change on human migration and health. However, somewhat less is known about the effects of environmental changes, especially flood events, on fertility despite plausible reasons to expect such impacts. …”

A Planetary Health Perspective on Agroforestry in Sub-Saharan Africa by Rosenstock, Todd S., Dawson, Ian K., Aynekulu, Ermias, Chomba, Susan, Degrande, Ann, Fornace, Kimberly, Jamnadass, Ramni H., Kimaro, Anthony A., Kindt, Roeland, Lamanna, Christine, Malesu, Maimbo M., Mausch, Kai, McMullin, Stepha, Murage, Peninah, Namoi, Nictor, Njenga, Mary, Nyoka, Isaac, Paez Valencia, Ana Maria, Sola, Phosiso, Shepherd, Keith D., Steward, Peter R.

“…We analyze the pathways through which tree-based farm and landscape change affect food and nutrition security, the spread of infectious disease, the prevalence of non-communicable diseases, and human migration in Sub-Saharan Africa. The available evidence suggests that, despite some increased risks of infectious disease, agroforestry is likely to improve a diverse range of pressing health concerns. …”

Migration towards Bangladesh coastlines projected to increase with sea-level rise through 2100 by Bell, Andrew R., Wrathall, David J., Mueller, Valerie, Chen, Joyce, Oppenheimer, Michael

Geographic distribution and frequency of a taurine B. Taurus and an indicine Bos indicus Y specific allele amongst sub-Saharan African cattle breeds by Hanotte, Olivier H., Tawah, C.L., Bradley, D.G., Okomo, M., Verjee, Y., Ochieng, J., Rege, J.E.O.

“…The Sanga cattle from the Lake Victoria region and the Kuri cattle of Lake Chad, cattle populations surrounded by Zebu breeds were, surprisingly, completely devoid of the indicine allele. Human migration, phenotypic preferences by the pastoralists, adaptation to specific habitats and to specific diseases are the main factors explaining the present-day distribution of the alleles in sub-Saharan Africa.…”

Disaster plant pathology: Smart solutions for threats to global plant health from natural and human-driven disasters by Etherton, B.A., Choudhury, R.A., Alcalá-Briseño, R.I., Mouafo-Tchinda, R.A., Sulá, A.I.P., Choudhary, M., Adhikari, A., Lei, S., Kraisitudomsook, N., Buritica, J.R., Cerbaro, V.A., Ogero, K., Cox, C.M., Walsh, S., Andrade-Piedra, J.L., Omondi, Bonaventure Aman Oduor, Navarrete, I., McEwan, M., Garrett, K.A.

“…There is also the potential for direct effects from disasters, such as pathogen or vector dispersal due to floods, hurricanes, and human migration driven by war. Pulse stressors such as hurricanes and war require rapid responses, while press stressors such as climate change leave more time for management adaptation but may ultimately cause broader challenges. …”
