Just Released! Climate and Social Stress: Implications for Security Analysis, discusses the complex relationship among climate, other environmental conditions, and socioeconmic and political conditions. Factors that link climate events to outcomes of security concern include nature of the event, exposure of people and things of value to people to the event, their susceptibility to harm, and their societies' coping, response, and recovery capabilities. ► Download PDF of the pre-publication copy ► Read the Report in Brief

Just Released! The report Options for Estimating Illegal Entries at the U.S.-Mexico Border finds that estimating whether heightened enforcement efforts of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security at the U.S.-Mexican border contributed to the decline of unauthorized migrants apprehended at the border will require combining DHS administrative data, survey data, and modeling approaches.

(8:30 am - 5:00 pm) 2101 Constitution Avenue Room 125
| The Board on Behavioral, Cognitive, and Sensory Sciences (BBCSS) is launching a new study that will review the emerging interdisciplinary research in team science, examining factors that affect collaboration, such as team dynamics, team management, and institutional policies, and will recommend ways to enhance the effectiveness of collaborative research in science teams, research centers, and institutes. This planning meeting will lay the groundwork for the study and will feature scientists who practice interdisciplinary research, investigators who study science teams, and representatives from research funding agencies. ► Read More | ► View the draft agenda ► Register for the webcast
| DBASSE Reports Related to Gun Violence and Schools In 2003, the Board on Children, Youth, and Families and the Committee on Law and Justice studied youth violence in schools. In its report, Deadly Lessons: Understanding Lethal School Violence, the committee drew upon case studies of violence in schools during the 1990s to develop hypotheses to explain the growing incidence of lethal school violence. A 2004 report from the Committee on Law and Justice, Firearms and Violence: A Critical Review, found that there is scant evidence about the effectiveness of current measures to prevent and control gun violence and outlined a comprehensive research program that could contribute to evidence-based conclusions and practice. |
