Does ESG Uncertainty Matter for Renewable and Nonrenewable Energy Consumption? Policy Implications in the Context of SDG 7 and SDG 13

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the discourse on environmental sustainability and energy security, energy management is an inevitable policy issue that requires research‐based solutions. Based on this, the present study contributes by examining the impact of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) uncertainty on energy consumption patterns in the USA from 2002 to 2024.

A Dynamic Business Modeling Approach to Port Sustainability: The Western Sicily Port Authority Case

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ports are critical nodes in global trade and economic development, yet they generate substantial environmental and social externalities—including greenhouse gas emissions, air, noise, and water pollution, and adverse impacts on host communities—that demand integrated and forward‐looking governance.

Shifts in biomass and productivity for a subtropical dry forest in response to simulated elevated hurricane disturbances

Environmental Research Letters, 2017
Caribbean tropical forests are subject to hurricane disturbances of great variability. In addition to natural storm incongruity, climate change can alter storm formation, duration, frequency, and intensity.

Aerodynamic Mitigation of Wind Uplift on Low-Rise Building Roof Using Large-Scale Testing

Frontiers in Built Environment, 2020
During strong wind events such as hurricanes and thunderstorms, building roofs are subjected to high wind uplift forces (suctions), which often lead to severe roofing component damage and possibly, water intrusion.

When Policy Is the Hazard: Institutional Legitimacy and Climate Risk Attribution Among Farmers in Water Stressed California

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how farmers perceive and respond to climate policy risk in the context of drought and argues that understanding such responses is as important as understanding farmer reactions to the biophysical impacts of climate change.

Impact of Anthropogenic Climate Change on United States Major Hurricane Landfall Frequency

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019
Although anthropogenic climate change has contributed to warmer ocean temperatures that are seemingly more favorable for Atlantic hurricane development, no major hurricanes made landfall in the United States between 2006 and 2016.

A Resilience‐Based Reward‐Penalty Scheme for Hardening Electricity Distribution Assets Against High‐Impact, Low‐Probability Disasters

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This paper introduces a novel resilience‐based reward‐penalty scheme (RPS) for electricity grids facing high‐impact, low‐probability (HILP) disasters. By modeling the costs of proactive asset immunization against reactive RPS penalties, our analysis conclusively demonstrates that long‐term investment in grid resilience is the more economically rational
