Abstract Compound flooding involves the interaction of multiple flood processes (e.g., coastal, fluvial, and pluvial) and is modulated by several factors (e.g., weather, climate, topobathy, morphology, time‐lag). In tropical and subtropical regions globally, Tropical Cyclones (TCs) are a primary cause of compound flooding as they generate substantial ...

Controls on Flow Separation at the River Bifurcation Head
Abstract Flow separation zones are common hydrodynamic features in river bifurcations, strongly influencing flow partitioning and channel morphology. While the inner‐bank separation zones have been widely recognized, we identify a previously underreported separation zone at the bifurcation head.

Abstract The “Nature‐based Solutions” strategy for combatting global land degradation and climate change through forestation has drawn increasing concerns regarding its potential tradeoffs with water resources, especially in dry regions. China is “greening up” due to decades of large‐scale tree planting and ecological restoration campaigns.

Abstract Developing an evidence‐based subnational climate vulnerability index is essential for prioritizing regional adaptation support and ensuring the fair and effective allocation of related resources. However, existing indices often struggle to capture nonlinear links between climatic drivers and economic outcomes, and their largely static ...

ABSTRACT Global warming increases the potential risks of hydrological extremes, such as extreme precipitation and flood. Limited attention has been given to the integrated effects of climate change, land‐use change, and socioeconomic advancement on flood risk under global warming of 1.5°C and 2.0°C threshold outlined in the Paris Agreement.

Regional Flood Emergency Capacity Assessment Based on a Multidimensional Framework
ABSTRACT Knowing the status of emergency capacity for disaster risk reduction helps the government and stakeholders to minimize vulnerabilities and disaster risk. However, there is no widely applied methodology for emergency capacity assessment. This study develops a multidimensional framework integrating vulnerability, susceptibility, and adaptability

ABSTRACT Background Effective and safe skin penetration enhancers are highly valuable for improving the efficacy of topical drug and cosmetic formulations. Objective This study aimed to develop and validate novel synergistic combinations of tetrahydropiperine (THP), 2,3‐butanediol (2,3‐BD), and hydrolyzed glycosaminoglycans (hGAGs) as effective skin ...
