Against the backdrop of accelerating global climate change and urbanization processes, urban transportation systems are confronting increasingly complex multi-hazard risks. Spatiotemporal big data, characterized by its high precision and information density, has demonstrated growing significance in transportation system resilience studies. Nevertheless, the current comprehension of the evolutionary trajectory of spatiotemporal big data applications in this domain remains fragmented. In this context, our study conducts a systematic review of global research, elucidating the practical implementations of spatiotemporal big data in transportation system resilience studies. The investigation reveals that multi-source big data with high spatiotemporal resolution has not only catalyzed methodological innovations in resilience assessment but has also potential to facilitate a paradigm shift in the field - transitioning from macro-scale to micro-scale analyses, from static evaluations to dynamic monitoring approaches, and from post-disaster emphasis to comprehensive lifecycle investigations. Journal of Geo-Information Science has published the study's results.

A new FAU survey reveals that more than two-thirds of Floridians are moderately or extremely concerned about hurricanes increasing in strength and frequency, and more than half are worried about the ability to afford and maintain homeowners insurance due to climate change. Nearly two-thirds of Floridians believe that state and federal governments should be doing more to address the impacts of climate change. Most also support expanding the use of renewable energy. About 88% of all Floridians believe climate change is happening.

Biomass is currently the EU’s largest renewable energy source, but climate strategies often focus on other energy sources. A comprehensive analysis, led by Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden, now shows that biomass is crucial for Europe's ability to reach its climate targets, as it can be used to produce fossil-free fuels and chemicals and also enables carbon dioxide removal from the atmosphere. If biomass were excluded from the European energy system, it would cost an extra 169 billion Euros per year – about the same as the cost of excluding wind power.
