Over the past 2 decades, deaths among children and teens from accidental drowning dropped substantially, researchers with the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) reported.
From 1999, when more than 1,100 youths ages 0-17 drowned to death, the annual figure declined steadily in the succeeding 20 years, reaching 756 in 2019, according to Merianne Rose Spencer, MPH, and colleagues in an
Those figures worked out to an annual rate of 1.6 per 100,000 in 1999 versus 1.0 per 100,000 in 2019 a 38% decline.
Data for the analysis came from the CDC s National Vital Statistics System, in which 2019 is the latest year with full reporting. The system records

Long-term urban land use land cover change (LULCC) dynamics and climate change trends in Southwest Ethiopia s four urban centers were examined for 60 years. Remote sensing, aerial photos, and Landsat, temperature, and rainfall data were analyzed from a climate change perspective over the Jimma, Bedelle, Bonga, and Sokorru urban centers of southwest Ethiopia from 1953 to 2018. Based on geospatial analysis and maximum likelihood supervised image classification techniques to classify LULCC categories, the Mann-Kendall test was applied to perform trend analyses on temperature and rainfall. The LULCC analysis revealed that built-up areas over the urban centers had shown an increasing trend, with the highest increment by 2,360 hectares over Jimma, while vegetation, wetland, and cropland declined due to conversion of plain lands to built-up areas
