Quantifying the health risks of climate change through simulation modeling
Article Abstract:
Author Pim Martens has significantly contributed to public health research and education through his book 'Health and Climate Change: Modelling the Impacts of Global Warming and Ozone Depletion.' His mathematical modelling framework has revolutionized the quantitative study of climate and its relationship with public health. He has effectively provided a model for linking the physical process of climate change to the biological pathways ending in human disease outcomes.

A review of forest patch models and their application to global change research
Article Abstract:
Forest patch models are utilized to provide simulations for vegetation dynamics that deal with production forestry. The effects of environmental variables such as temperature, growth and mortality are included in gap patch models to enhance the accuracy of the simulations. Furthermore, patch models on forest ecosystems can be utilized to evaluate vegetation distribution and dynamics in response to global change.
