Climate extremes and compound hazards in a warming world
Climate extremes threaten human health, economic stability, and the well-being of natural
and built environments (eg, 2003 European heat wave). As the world continues to warm …

Forest disturbances under climate change
Forest disturbances are sensitive to climate. However, our understanding of disturbance
dynamics in response to climatic changes remains incomplete, particularly regarding large …

Climate change exacerbates hurricane flood hazards along US Atlantic and Gulf Coasts in spatially varying patterns
One of the most destructive natural hazards, tropical cyclone (TC)–induced coastal flooding,
will worsen under climate change. Here we conduct climatology–hydrodynamic modeling to …

Anthropogenic influences on major tropical cyclone events
There is no consensus on whether climate change has yet affected the statistics of tropical
cyclones, owing to their large natural variability and the limited period of consistent …
