01In brief

The short answer.

Publishing in Nexus Reports is how Climate and Hazards findings reach the Consortium's versioned report series, here Global Systems Risk and Resilience, Observatory Signal, and Scenario and Stress-Test. A contribution is a reviewed finding with its method, evidence labels and limits; series editors check scope and consistency, and no funder, sponsor or member can buy or block a finding.

02Canvas

Scoping to review.

Canvas · scoping to reviewDesign, not a record
Publish in Nexus Reports: the policy cycleA problem reaches the agenda, options are formulated and appraised, consultation tests them, the mandate holder decides, implementation and monitoring follow, and evaluation feeds the next agenda. Design of the process, not a record of a run.

03Geography

Climate signals in World.

For publish in nexus reports, in GCRI's spatial-intelligence reading, the map opens on true-colour imagery and land cover, framed on World; 4 further NASA layers wait in the list.

The interactive map needs JavaScript; the layer list and sources are below.

07Key terms

Terms used on this page.

Each term as this page uses it. Where a standard-setting body defines the term, the wording follows that body.

TermDefinition
Editorial independenceThe condition in which editors decide what is published on the validity and relevance of the work, free from interference by owners, funders or sponsors, as ICMJE and COPE guidance describe it.
Living reportA report updated in versions as evidence changes, with each version kept and dated.
Grey literatureMaterial produced outside commercial and academic publishing, such as reports, filings and working papers.
Version of recordThe fixed version of a work that a publisher formally declares published; later changes appear as dated corrections or new versions, never as silent edits, in the sense NISO's journal article versions recommendation uses.
08Sources
