Climate Change and Human Health Literature Portal Bibliographic Data

The Climate Change and Human Health Literature Portal is a bibliographic database created by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences<br>(NIEHS) that contains a collection of scientific research on the health impacts of climate change. It compiles literature including studies on extreme weather events, heat waves, air pollution, infectious diseases and more. The mission of the NIEHS is "to discover how the environment affects people in order to promote healthier lives." The portal draws from biomedical and environmental databases like PubMed to compile studies and collect data across various aspects of the environment and population groups. The database includes citations and links to 22,695 studies published from 2007 to 2023, and users can filter studies to search based on exposure, health impact, geographic location, geographic feature, model/methodology, model timescale, special topic, resource type and year published. Citations with links to articles (not the articles themselves) are included in the database.<br><br>The web portal was no longer available as of February 2025, and the bibliographic records in this dataset capture what was behind the portal.
