• TITLE: Compiling and Mapping an International Climate Change Database: Worlds of Gaps and Unevenness

  AUTHORS: Stanley D. Brunn

  KEYWORDS: Climate Change Maps, Capital Cities, Knowledge Gaps, Climate Impacts, Global Climate

  JOURNAL NAME: Natural Resources, Vol.14 No.3, March 31, 2023

  ABSTRACT: Daily and weekly reporting events of climate change and impacts on populations, cultures, economies and politics at local, national, regional and international scales suggest the need to construct databases that will be useful in future scientific inquiry and global human/environmental policies. That need is evident in constructing a geographic or locational knowledge base that examines countries, regions and cities. This study constructs a database on the impacts of climate change using Google Scholar entries for 200 countries and capital cities. A series of maps reveal the vast unevenness in the database, especially between Global North and Global South countries. The discussion explores these sharp differences and suggests future research topics for much-needed global, interdisciplinary and international research.
