Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

Climate Research publishes studies on climate variability and change, including their impacts on natural and human systems. The journal covers topics such as climate adaptation strategies, the relationship between climate variables and disease incidence, the influence of land use and surface characteristics on climate, and the effects of climate patterns like ENSO on agricultural yields and macroeconomic variables. Research also addresses projected changes in extreme weather events, climate suitability for tourism, and the distribution of species under different climate scenarios.
