Description
A field that joins Earth science with health science has grown fast since its society section and journal launched in twenty seventeen, yet its findings still struggle to change policy. Tong and co-authors call for a decadal survey of the field in this 2026 commentary. Such surveys are consensus reports that set priorities for a whole research community.
The authors cite fragmented data systems, funding gaps, and a shifting policy landscape as the drags on progress. A decadal survey could rank the key research questions, guide workforce training, and build community agreement on strategy. The piece is an advocacy argument aimed at funders and professional societies, written by a long list of researchers across the field.
