Costs of extreme flooding events continue to rise dramatically around the world. Effective
mitigation of flood risks requires a comprehensive understanding of disaster impacts on …

As exposure to coastal hazards increases there is growing interest in nature-based solutions
for risk reduction. This study uses high-resolution flood and loss models to quantify the …

Many sea-level rise (SLR) assessments focus on populations presently inhabiting
vulnerable coastal communities,,, but to date no studies have attempted to model the …

Coastal risks are increasing from both development and climate change. Interest is growing
in the protective role that coastal nature-based measures (or green infrastructure), such as …

We develop a dynamic spatial growth theory with realistic geography. We characterize the
model and its balanced-growth path and propose a methodology to analyze equilibria with …

Due to their nature and location, ports and other maritime projects are particularly sensitive
to climate change actions. Thus, when designing these types of projects, it is important to …

There is a growing capability to project the impacts and economic effects of climate change
across multiple sectors. This information is needed to inform decisions regarding the …

Sea-level rise and ensuing permanent coastal inundation will cause spatial shifts in
population and economic activity over the next 200 years. Using a highly spatially …

Abstract Sea-Level Rise (SLR) Projections from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA) and the US Army Corp of Engineers (USACE) indicate increasing …

This study examines the direct and indirect impacts of climate change to the tourism sector
on the islands of New Providence and adjacent Paradise Island in the Bahamas. The …
