Increasing flooding hazard in coastal communities due to rising sea level: Case study of Miami Beach, Florida [PDF]
Sea level rise (SLR) imposes an increasing flooding hazard on low-lying coastal communities due to higher exposure to high-tide conditions and storm surge.

Regulatory Convergence and Divergence in ESG Reporting in the Indo‐Pacific Region
ABSTRACT Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) reporting has evolved significantly globally over the past few decades. Many countries are now signatories to international agreements such as the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the Paris Agreement, with increasing commitments to emissions reduction targets and the

Modelling of Storm-induced Seawater Flooding in the Suyeong River Area, South Korea: A Case Study due to the Storm Surge and Waves during Typhoon Sanba [PDF]
The Suyeong River Area (SRA), located in Busan, a major city on the southeastern coast of South Korea, is frequently damaged by storm-induced seawater flooding.

Storm surge, seawater flooding, and sea-level rise paradoxically drive fresh surface water expansion
Coastal storms and sea-level rise (SLR) are expected to increase seawater flooding in low-elevation coastal zones. High sea levels and seawater flooding can drive groundwater table rise via ocean-aquifer connections.

COASTAL FLOOD SIMULATION IN STRETCHED COORDINATES
Coastal flooding in developed areas can be catastrophic. As an essential element in coastal water level prediction, a two-dimensional numerical model of long period wave behavior is presented. The time dependency is treated implicitly for cost-effective simulation of coastal flooding from hurricane surges or other hydrodynamic phenomena such as ...

Where early successional forests are more flammable than old‐growth forests, forested landscapes are vulnerable to shifting into ‘fire traps' through positive feedbacks, where fire leads to more fire. These feedbacks are amplified by increased flammability driven by climate change, the presence of non‐native flammable plant species, and slowed ...
