Global warming, extreme climate events, earthquakes and their accompanying
socioeconomic disasters pose significant risks to humanity. Yet due to the nonlinear …

The propagations of diseases, behaviors and information in real systems are rarely
independent of each other, but they are coevolving with strong interactions. To uncover the …

Many systems on our planet shift abruptly and irreversibly from the desired state to an
undesired state when forced across a “tipping point”. Some examples are mass extinctions …

We develop an auto-reservoir computing framework, Auto-Reservoir Neural Network
(ARNN), to efficiently and accurately make multi-step-ahead predictions based on a short …

Tipping points exist in social, ecological and climate systems and those systems are
increasingly causally intertwined in the Anthropocene. Climate change and biosphere …

Much previous research has problematized the use of a binary urban–rural distinction to
describe human settlement patterns in and around cities. Peri-urban zones, on the edge of …

The ability to predict when societies will replace one social norm for another can have
significant implications for welfare, especially when norms are detrimental. A popular theory …

Extinction debt refers to delayed species extinctions expected as a consequence of
ecosystem perturbation. Quantifying such extinctions and investigating long‐term …

Complex systems are high-dimensional nonlinear dynamical systems with heterogeneous
interactions among their constituents. To make interpretable predictions about their large …

Without changes in consumption, along with sharp reductions in food waste and postharvest
losses, agricultural production must grow to meet future food demands. The variety of …
