Evaluating the protection status and exposure to warming of Caribbean reefs with high functional potential

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Over the past decades, climate change has emerged as a major threat to global biodiversity, negatively affecting the integrity and functioning of ecosystems and the benefits they provide to people. To mitigate these impacts, it is essential to identify climate refugia that support the persistence of the structure and function of reef ...

Wind forecast and prior community experience are associated with high preparedness for sequential tropical cyclones in the United States

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
Sequential tropical cyclone events, in which two tropical cyclones make landfall in the same region within a short time, are becoming increasingly likely. Here we investigate community preparedness for six sequential tropical cyclone events in the United

Raindrop Size Distribution Measurements in Tropical Cyclones

open access: yes, 2008
Characteristics of the raindrop size distribution in seven tropical cyclones have been studied through impact-type disdrometer measurements at three different sites during the 2004-06 Atlantic hurricane seasons.

Climate shocks, coping strategies, and household resilience: Evidence from a three‐wave panel in Malawi

open access: yesContemporary Economic Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate shocks threaten rural livelihoods in Malawi, yet households adopt diverse coping strategies to mitigate welfare losses. Using three‐wave Living Standards Measurement Study–Integrated Surveys on Agriculture panel data (2013–2019) and household fixed‐effects models, this study examines how climate shocks affect food security and ...

Understanding and Addressing the Disruptive Impacts of Contemporary Climate Crises

open access: yesJournal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract Contemporary climate crises, such as wildfires, droughts, floods, and tropical storms, are increasing in frequency, intensity, scale, and duration. Organization and management scholars have been calling for more systematic study of the impacts of this increasing complexity on extant crisis governance arrangements and capacities for ...

Hydrological restoration of coastal wetlands: optimizing site selection and implementation strategies

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Coastal wetlands, despite their importance in providing ecosystem services like carbon sequestration, water quality improvement, and coastal protection, have suffered extensive degradation and loss in the past two centuries. Hydrological restoration of these degraded ecosystems presents an emerging opportunity for mitigating and ...

Tropical cyclones and impact on navigation : Tropical cyclones and impact on navigation

open access: yes
Ovaj završni rad bazira se na tropskim ciklonima, odnosno na njihovom nastanku i utjecaju na plovidbu. Spomenuti su najpoznatiji zabilježeni cikloni u svijetu kao i štete koje su prouzrokovali. Posebno je izdvojen dio o nastanku i životu ciklona što je

Testing coir (coconut) fiber as a novel, biodegradable material for coral reef restoration: coir interactions with larval and juvenile corals

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Coral populations have declined in recent decades, largely due to anthropogenic climate change. In response, coral restoration projects are being implemented, and rubble stabilization is one such approach. Rubble beds form when dead coral fragments accumulate on the seafloor and can be mobilized by water flow.
