Atmospheric CO₂ is in continuous flux, following the rhythms and processes of its major sources and sinks. Computational models represent this dynamic by dividing the atmosphere into a…
National emissions inventories record the greenhouse gases each country releases every year, broken down by a hierarchy of sectors such as energy, industry, agriculture, transport and heating. The…
Climate scientists have created an ecology of computational models that describe the interdependent components of the Earth system1. These models are driven by, and produce, vast quantities of…
Codex explores how Wikipedia’s language communities delineate space. The work grows out of the Terra Incognita project, focusing on how the encyclopaedia’s textual metadata can be used to…
Terra Incognita visualises the evolution of Wikipedia over the last decade, mapping the geographic articles for over 50 languages. The maps highlight cultural biases, unexpected areas of focus, the overlaps…
Luminous Cities explores how urban landscapes are described by the accumulation of traces left by social media. Focusing on geo-coded photos from platforms such as Flickr, Instagram and…
Mapping Wikipedia visualises all the geo-located articles for a number of languages. Each point on the map is an article that refers to a location somewhere on the…
The Southern Ocean Studies are part of a series of works, produced with the assistance of the British Antarctic Survey, exploring how climate models can function as representations…
Locus visualises the media coverage given to regions of conflict over the last decade. Using the Guardian Open Platform news articles have been mapped to the relevant cities…
Cyclone brings together two contemporary phenomena: the charting of severe weather conditions, and the polarized nature of debate that occurs online.
