Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Increasing equitable access to safe, adequately designed, and high-quality urban green spaces can help reduce the negative health impacts of climate change, reducing heat exposure and flood risk while offering physical and mental health co-benefits.

    “Increasing equitable access to safe, adequately designed, and high-quality urban green spaces can help reduce the negative health impacts of climate change, reducing heat exposure and flood risk while offering physical and mental health co-benefits by improving air quality and offering spaces for exercise, social interaction, and connection with nature (panel 4).195,196,199–202”
  • Many climate change mitigation actions can also deliver direct health benefits in the short and long terms.

    “Importantly, many such actions can also deliver direct health benefits in the short and long terms.230”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
