Measuring causal strengths from spatial cross-sectional data with geographical cross mapping cardinality

We proposed the Geographical Cross Mapping Cardinality (GCMC) model to reliably quantify causal strengths from spatial cross-sectional data with low false positive rates.

Causal discovery in urban data with temporal empirical dynamic modeling: The R package tEDM

We developed tEDM, an open-source R package that implements and extends empirical dynamic modeling for temporal causal discovery in urban data.

Effects of Short-Term Exposure to Air Pollutants on Real-Time Blood Pressure: A Wearable Device-Based Study in China

Air pollutants have been known as the most persistent environmental risk factors of elevated blood pressure (BP). However, most of the existing studies measured resting BP only, which is not accurate as ambulatory BP. This study investigated the …

Assessing Variations in River Networks Under Urbanization Across Metropolitan Plains Using a Multi-Metric Approach

Urbanization, characterized by rapid construction land expansion, has transformed natural landscapes and significantly altered river networks in emerging metropolitan areas. Understanding the historical and current conditions of river networks is …
