With communities increasingly concentrated in coastal regions globally, governments and
stakeholders call for cohesive risk assessments for future sustainability in the wake of …

The relationships between climate and forest dynamics can help us to interpret patterns of
ecosystem carbon and to predict how forests react to climatic changes. We report mass …

In this paper the concept of track integrated kinetic energy (TIKE) is introduced as a measure
of seasonal Atlantic tropical cyclone activity and applied to seasonal variability in the …

Some studies suggest that canopy gaps are not crucial for woody species recruitment in
typhoon-disturbed forests because of frequently defoliated forest crowns and invariant high …

This volume studies the challenges of climate change in South Asia and examines the role
of the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) in addressing them. It …

The integrated kinetic energy (IKE) of a tropical cyclone (TC), a volume integration of the
surface winds around the centre of the TC, is computed from a comprehensive surface wind …

This study investigates the impacts of Madden–Julian Oscillation (MJO) on tropical cyclone
(TC) activity over the western North Pacific (WNP), with a focus on the South China Sea …

Tropical cyclone (TC) activity during the period from 1979-2010 represented by the Emanuel-
Nolan “genesis potential index”(EN-GPI) is compared and evaluated against observation of …

This study examines the teleconnection between sea surface temperature (SST) in different
ocean regions and tropical cyclone (TC) activity affecting Vietnam's coastal region. Using …

Using Gray's “seasonal genesis parameter”(SGP) as a metric, we investigate the large-scale
environmental factors and the associated circulation changes attributing to rare tropical …
