Floods From Space: How Remote Sensing, AI, and Cloud Platforms Are Reshaping Disaster Risk Reduction

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Flooding remains one of the most damaging climate‐related hazards globally, yet flood remote sensing has historically developed largely along sensor‐specific pathways. This review addresses the need for a systematic and decision‐oriented synthesis of how space‐borne remote sensing has evolved toward integrated flood monitoring and disaster ...

Direct Policy Search for a Risk‐Based Levee Design Framework With Scenario Reduction

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Risk‐based management of coastal flood risk using realistic, process‐based models poses computational challenges, particularly when addressing uncertainties like sea‐level rise. This study explores the use of direct policy search (DPS) as a state‐dependent, adaptive decision‐making approach for upgrading levee systems.

Is Europe Under UNSEEN Risk of Cyclones of Tropical Origin?

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract The impacts and potential multidecadal variability of cyclones of tropical origin (CTOs) remain poorly understood, particularly when these events make landfall or pass near Europe (named CTO‐Es) or cause measurable impacts in Europe (named CTO‐EIs).

Interannual‐Decadal Hydroclimatic Variability in the Southern Himalaya Over the Past 500 Years: Mechanisms From MADA‐PHYDA Integration

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Understanding the drivers of interannual‐to‐decadal hydroclimatic variability in the southern Himalaya (SH) has been constrained by the scarcity of long‐term, spatially comprehensive proxy records and data assimilation products. Here, we combine the Monsoon Asia Drought Atlas (MADA) and the Paleo Hydrodynamics Data Assimilation (PHYDA) to ...

Seasonal Trends, Environmental Drivers, and Lessons Learned From the 2023 Cholera Outbreak in Chattogram, Bangladesh: A Descriptive Study

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Acute watery diarrhea (AWD) remains a major global public health problem, and cholera continues to cause substantial morbidity and mortality in settings with inadequate water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH). Chattogram, a coastal district of Bangladesh, is particularly vulnerable due to seasonal hydroclimatic changes ...

Climate Change and African Agricultural Resilience: A 10‐Year Comprehensive Review of Adaptive Capacity, Policy, and Environmental Stewardship

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT In the current era, climate change has emerged as a fundamental threat to African agriculture, driven by increasingly erratic climatic patterns such as prolonged rainfall, decadal droughts, and escalating thermal stress. This review evaluates contemporary agricultural productivity by gathering and analyzing empirical data from academic ...
