Journal of Financial Research, EarlyView.Abstract This article examines how salient sustainability risks from near‐miss natural disasters influence board composition. Using a difference‐in‐differences design, I find that firms located in counties neighboring disaster‐affected areas significantly increase the presence of directors with sustainability expertise following the disaster.

Welfare consequences of the compound risks of index insurance
Journal of Risk and Insurance, EarlyView.Abstract Index insurance is an attractive variant on the standard insurance contract that allows the determination of a loss event to be defined by one or more thresholds on an index that is positively correlated with actual losses. Index insurance also comes with a compound risk, basis risk.

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.Abstract The relative rates of sexual versus clonal reproduction partition genetic diversity, but the quantification of these rates remains limited in natural populations. This knowledge gap is particularly acute among tropical macroalgae. Chondria tumulosa is a red macroalga that has been documented at high abundance in the three northernmost atolls ...

Development of a Tsunami Inundation Map in Detecting Tsunami Risk in Gulf of Fethiye, Turkey
Pure and Applied Geophysics, 2014 NAMIDANCE tsunami simulation and visualization tool is used to create tsunami inundation maps showing quantitative maximum tsunami flow depths in Fethiye. The risk of an extreme, but likely earthquake-generated tsunami is estimated at Fethiye Bay for 14 probabilistic earthquake scenarios.

‘You know you're going to get through this’: Volunteers and long‐term disaster recovery
Disasters, Volume 50, Issue 4, October 2026.Abstract As nature‐induced disasters intensify and reliance on volunteer support grows, volunteers are now increasingly critical to disaster response and recovery, particularly in countries like Australia. This paper advances our empirical understanding of volunteer contributions to long‐term disaster recovery.
