Storm surge and ponding explain mangrove dieback in southwest Florida following Hurricane Irma
Mangroves buffer inland ecosystems from hurricane winds and storm surge. However, their
ability to withstand harsh cyclone conditions depends on plant resilience traits and …

A general pattern of trade-offs between ecosystem resistance and resilience to tropical cyclones
Tropical cyclones drive coastal ecosystem dynamics, and their frequency, intensity, and
spatial distribution are predicted to shift with climate change. Patterns of resistance and …

Why some trees are more vulnerable during catastrophic cyclone events in the Sundarbans mangrove forest of Bangladesh?
Mangroves are recognised for their diverse set of ecosystem services, including protection
from tropical cyclones and tidal surges. Mangroves are also adapted to withstand …

Differential effects of redox conditions on the decomposition of litter and soil organic matter
Soil redox conditions exert substantial influence on biogeochemical processes in terrestrial
ecosystems. Humid tropical forest soils are often characterized by fluctuating redox, yet how …

Tropical cyclone risk to global mangrove ecosystems: potential future regional shifts
Tropical cyclones pose a major risk to mangroves, yet the evolution of risk in response to
altered cyclone activity under climate change remains largely unexplored. Analyzing 1886 …

Quantifying disturbance and recovery in estuaries: Tropical cyclones and high-frequency measures of oxygen and salinity
Tropical cyclones impact estuaries via a variety of mechanisms including storm surge,
flooding from precipitation, high winds, and strong wave action. Prior studies have …

Ecosystem damage by increasing tropical cyclones
Climate change is driving an ongoing increase in tropical cyclone (TC) activity. While global
economic losses are projected to double by 2100, there are no comparable predictions for …

Intraseasonal interactive effects of successive typhoons characterize canopy damage of forests in Taiwan: A remote sensing-based assessment
Wind gusts and rainfall from tropical cyclones can heavily damage forest canopies, leading
to abrupt changes in forest structure and tree demography. Although many studies have …
