Modeling Flood-Induced Stress in Soybeans
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 Despite the detrimental impact that excess moisture can have on soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr) yields, most of today's crop models do not capture soybean's dynamic responses to waterlogged conditions. In light of this, we synthesized literature data and

Channel Shallowing as Mitigation of Coastal Flooding
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2015 Here, we demonstrate that reductions in the depth of inlets or estuary channels can be used to reduce or prevent coastal flooding. A validated hydrodynamic model of Jamaica Bay, New York City (NYC), is used to test nature-based adaptation measures in ...

Recent intensification of Amazon flooding extremes driven by strengthened Walker circulation
Science Advances, 2018 A recent increase in extreme flooding in Amazonia is linked to intensification of the atmospheric east-west Walker circulation. The Amazon basin is the largest watershed on Earth.

Response of the wheat mycobiota to flooding revealed substantial shifts towards plant pathogens
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Rainfall extremes are intensifying as a result of climate change, leading to increased flood risk. Flooding affects above- and belowground ecosystem processes, representing a substantial threat to crop productivity under climate change.

Mediterranean UNESCO World Heritage at risk from coastal flooding and erosion due to sea-level rise
Nature Communications, 2018 UNESCO World Heritage sites (WHS) located in coastal areas are increasingly at risk from coastal hazards due to sea-level rise. In this study, we assess Mediterranean cultural WHS at risk from coastal flooding and erosion under four sea-level rise ...

Waterlogging affects plant morphology and the expression of key genes in tef (Eragrostis tef)
Plant Direct, 2018 Tef [Eragrostis tef (Zucc.) Trotter], an allotetraploid cereal that is a staple food to over 60 million people in the Horn of Africa, has a high nutritional content and is resistant to many biotic and abiotic stresses such as waterlogging and drought ...

Regional Index Insurance Using Satellite‐Based Fractional Flooded Area
Earth's Future, 2022 Emerging parametric insurance products targeted at regional governments consider an index of flooding as the instrument for payoff and rate setting. Inundation extent from satellite remote sensing may provide a more direct measure of flood risk in this ...
