Extreme events, such as those caused by climate change, economic or geopolitical shocks, and pest disease epidemics, threaten global food security. The complexity of causation, well the myriad ways that an event, a sequence creates cascading systemic impacts, poses significant challenges to systems research policy alike. To identify priority security risks opportunities, we asked experts from range fields geographies describe key threats over next two decades suggest questions gaps on this...

This study contributes to the field of environmental justice by addressing two key questions: (1) To what extent are racial and ethnic composition, socio-demographic characteristics, housing-related factors associated with siting hydraulic fracturing wells in U.S.? (2) How have these associations evolved over time, demographic changes contributed increased concerns? Using a panel dataset from FracFocus American Community Survey at census-tract level between 2011 2023, findings reveal that...

Abstract Due to its unique location, Bangladesh often faces devastating hydroclimatic shocks such as floods and cyclones. In the recent past, three major cyclones (Sidr in 2007, Aila 2009, Komen 2015) claimed 3800 lives damaged hundreds of thousands houses with billions dollars property damages. this paper, we focus on understanding people's evacuation behaviors face approaching using survey data collected through face-to-face interviews residents living coastal areas Bangladesh. Through...

Abstract Climate change by its very nature epitomizes the necessity and usefulness of global-to-local-to-global (GLG) paradigm. It is a global problem with potential to affect local communities ecosystems. Accumulation impacts responses climate feeds back regional systems creating feedback loops. Understanding these complex interactions key developing more resilient adaptation measures designing efficient mitigation policies. To this date, however, GLG have not yet been an integrative part...

Abstract The impact of climate change is increasingly evident through intensified and more frequent weather-related events, resulting in a higher likelihood disaster-induced displacement. In response, effective adaptation resilience-building measures implemented environmental governance are crucial. Here, we investigate the relationship between (measured by Notre Dame Country Index) disaster displacements. Using panel dataset 92 countries from 2010 to 2020, Granger non-causality tests reveal...

Hurricane evacuation has become an increasingly complicated activity in the U.S. as it involves moving many people who live along Atlantic coast and Gulf within a very limited time. A good deal of research been conducted on hurricane evacuation, but only number studies have looked into timing aspect evacuation. This paper intends to contribute literature decisions by investigating what factors influence time preference at household level. Two survey data sets were used analyze behaviors...

A growing body of evidence suggests that the global sea level has been increasing at an accelerating rate. This trend, which is linked to warming, poses a significant threat communities living in low elevation coastal areas. study aims investigate public preferences and estimate economic value sea-level rise (SLR) adaptation projects Florida.

We analyzed data from a survey administered to 1,212 respondents living in superstorm Hurricane Sandy-affected areas. estimated the effect of having experienced hurricane-induced disruptions utility services, such as electricity, water, gas, phone service, and public transportation, on an evacuation plan. Around 39% reported plan case hurricane affects their neighborhood this year. Respondents who had electricity supply approximately 11 percentage-point higher likelihood than those no...

Abstract Critical infrastructures are ubiquitous and their interdependencies have become more complex leading to uncertain behaviors in the aftermath of disasters. The article develops an integrated economic input–output model that incorporates household‐level survey data from Hurricane Sandy, which made its landfall 2012. In this survey, 427 respondents who were living state New Jersey during Sandy used study. integration responses allowed us show probability duration various types critical...

This study addressed the distributional challenges associated with renewable energy development. In U.S., wind has become most prevalent source, offering significant advantages in decarbonization, economic growth, and access to affordable clean energy. However, concerns emerged regarding consequences of aimed empirically examine (i) impact projects on income inequality (ii) any trends this from a spatial–temporal perspective. To achieve this, we constructed new variable measure development...

Using multiple hurricane surveys collected from different areas in the U.S., this study estimates how much distance and time were traveled by evacuees to reach safer destinations during a event. Regression results indicate that flood risk, respondents’ age, income, education levels are correlated with both travel of evacuation trips. Moreover, gain deeper insights, we estimated price income elasticities trip characteristics. The reveal is necessary ordinary good, implying safety essential...

Critical infrastructure and public utility systems are often severely damaged by natural disasters like hurricanes. Based on a framework of household disaster resilience, this paper focuses the role disruption household-level recovery in context Hurricane Sandy. Using data collected through two-stage survey, it first confirms that sample selection bias is not present, thus responses can be estimated sequentially. Second, quantitatively examines factors contributing to hurricane-induced...
