Abstract:
The research of geomagnetic storm has developed rapidly, and many new geomagnetic storm prediction methods have appeared. In order to summarize the previous research on geomagnetic storms, and points out the improvement direction of several existing forecasting methods. This paper uses the method of literature research to introduce the basic knowledge of geomagnetic storms, the interplanetary origin, and three forecasting methods: analysis of the change of cosmic ray flux to predict geomagnetic storms, evaluation of neural networks to analyze solar wind data for geomagnetic storm prediction and using very low frequency signal to predict geomagnetic storms. The advantages and disadvantages of the above three forecasting methods are compared. According to the analysis, one can have a relatively comprehensive understanding of geomagnetic storms and grasp the basic ideas of the existing geomagnetic storm forecast methods, the forecast lead and accuracy of geomagnetic storm can be achieved by combining many existing forecasting methods. A deeper study of the relationship between Earth and the Sun could also lead to the discovery of new methods for predicting geomagnetic storms.

Abstract:
Background & Aims: Dust storms, which are considered natural occurrences, have harmed the global population’s health as a result of the broad increase in climate change. The most serious consequences of these alterations are cardiovascular, pulmonary, and cerebrovascular diseases. This review study focused on the effect of dust storms and climatic factors on mortality and morbidity in worldwide and assessed the prediction of these diseases based on changes in each of the meteorological factors and dust storms. Materials and Methods: For data collection, English literature was searched using keywords "dust storm" and "respiratory disorders" or "cardiovascular disease" or "cerebrovascular disease" in PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus as databases, along with Google Scholar as engine search. The first step was to use statistics on the number of instances of cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, and respiratory diseases. The association between the occurrence of these diseases and variations in climatic factors underwent assessment. Results: Adverse repercussions could be noticed when dust storms were paired with changes in metrological parameters. More local information about the link of these diseases with dust storms and changes in metrological variables in the nation, as well as their capacity to anticipate them, is needed to prevent and reduce the health risk of these diseases. Conclusion: In areas prone to dust storms, the population will be prone to its effects and consequences. Thus, preventive measures are beneficial at the community level.

Abstract:
Influenza viruses are still a serious threat to human health. Cytokines are essential for cell-to-cell communication and viral clearance in the immune system, but excessive cytokines can cause serious immune pathology. Deaths caused by severe influenza are usually related to cytokine storms. The recent literature has described the mechanism behind the cytokine–storm network and how it can exacerbate host pathological damage. Biological factors such as sex, age, and obesity may cause biological differences between different individuals, which affects cytokine storms induced by the influenza virus. In this review, we summarize the mechanism behind influenza virus cytokine storms and the differences in cytokine storms of different ages and sexes, and in obesity.

Abstract:
This contribution aims to explore the role of oceanographic parameters on the damage caused by storms at the eastern Cantabrian coast (1996–2016). All wave storms affecting the study area were characterized in terms of several oceanographic parameters; among them, damaging storms (responsible for direct and tangible loss) were identified. Cross-referencing both databases makes it possible to find some thresholds that explain storm conditions associated with property damage. Particularly relevant are those responsible for significant and widespread damage: maximum significant offshore wave height >6.5 m, maximum total water level >6 m, SPI >1700 m2h, and a storm duration >48 h. These values are exceptionally high, mostly exceeding the 95th percentile. A comparison has been made with other thresholds described in the literature. The concurrence of high wave height and high tidal level is crucial as the greatest damage is caused by the combination of wave impact and over-wash, so a long duration of the storm is necessary to coincide with high tide. An empirical Intensity-Duration threshold has also been obtained with the following function I = 248.7 D−0.45. Damage can occur with moderate storms, but with severe effects only with exceptional wave and sea-level values, during long-lasting storms.

Abstract:
Abstract The Lake Victoria region in East Africa is a hot spot for intense convective storms that are responsible for the deaths of thousands of fishermen each year. The processes responsible for the initiation, development, and propagation of the storms are poorly understood and forecast skill is limited. Key processes for the life cycle of two storms are investigated using Met Office Unified Model convection-permitting simulations with 1.5 km horizontal grid spacing. The two cases are analyzed alongside a simulation of a period with no storms to assess the roles of the lake–land breeze, downslope mountain winds, prevailing large-scale winds, and moisture availability. While seasonal changes in large-scale moisture availability play a key role in storm development, the lake–land-breeze circulation is a major control on the initiation location, timing, and propagation of convection. In the dry season, opposing offshore winds form a bulge of moist air above the lake surface overnight that extends from the surface to ~1.5 km and may trigger storms in high CAPE/low CIN environments. Such a feature has not been explicitly observed or modeled in previous literature. Storms over land on the preceding day are shown to alter the local atmospheric moisture and circulation to promote storm formation over the lake. The variety of initiation processes and differing characteristics of just two storms analyzed here show that the mean diurnal cycle over Lake Victoria alone is inadequate to fully understand storm formation. Knowledge of daily changes in local-scale moisture variability and circulations are keys for skillful forecasts over the lake.

Abstract:
In this study, we present the detailed study of the geomagnetic storm that occurred 6-10 October 2015. In literature this storm was classified as a two-step storm due to the observation of two large decreases of the disturbance storm time (Dst) index during the main storm phase. In addition, the strong thermal emission velocity enhancement (STEVE) event occurred during the same storm phase was photographically documented by citizen scientists at Minnesota Nevis (USA). The storm of 7 October 2015, which exhibits high-intensity, long-duration, continuous AE activity (HILDCAA), is one of the strongest storms of the recent 24th solar cycle. We examined changes in Dst index, interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) Bz, flow velocity, proton density, solar wind pressure, epsilon parameters and presented the discussion of the physical mechanism happened during this geomagnetic storm. The results obtained for the storm on 7 October 2015 were also compared with geomagnetic storms occurred on 8 March 2008, 25 July 2016 and 8 September 2017.

Abstract:
A mathematical description of summer rainfall occurrences in southern Ontario is developed in this paper. The theory of Poisson point processes with specific application to rainfall modelling is presented with a critical review of previous literature on Poisson rainfall models. A marked Poisson process model of summer storms is formulated, using the marks to represent the random duration and intensity of the events. Model parameters are estimated for four locations in southern Ontario using a total of 48 seasons of hourly rainfall data. The model is applied to calculate the seasonal return period of extreme storms and the probability distribution of total seasonal rainfall volume. These two examples demonstrate the accuracy and usefulness of the model. Key words: rainfall, storm duration, storm intensity, temporal storm pattern, probabilistic model, Poisson process, exponential distribution, gamma distribution, Weibull distribution.

Jones, Gwilym John. "Shakespeare's storms." Thesis, University of Sussex, 2010. http://sro.sussex.ac.uk/id/eprint/2388/.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis seeks to provide a new perspective on storms in Shakespeare. Rather than a recurrent motif, the storm is seen as protean: each play uses the storm in a singular way. The works of Shakespeare's contemporaries are explored for comparison, whilst meteorological texts and accounts of actual storms are examined for context. Using close reading and theories of ecocriticism throughout, I show that Shakespeare's storms are attentive to the environmental conditions of experience. Although the dominant practice of staging storms in early modern England is to suggest the supernatural, Shakespeare writes storms which operate quite differently. I argue that this is a compelling opportunity to see Shakespeare develop a complex engagement with audience expectations. Five plays are explored in separate chapters, each with respect to performative conditions and through close reading of the poetry. Firstly, I argue that the Globe's opening in 1599 demanded a spectacular showcase, to which Julius Caesar responded, shaping the play's language and staging. With King Lear (c.1605), the traditional, non-Shakespearean location of the heath betrays a tendency to misread the play in terms of location rather than event. King Lear's storm withholds the supernatural, a manifestly different approach from that in Macbeth (c.1606); Shakespeare both adheres to and resists convention in this respect. The relationship between storm and the supernatural in Macbeth is shown to be fundamental to the play's equivocation. Shakespeare's next storm is in Pericles (c.1608), which also contains a storm by George Wilkins. The two writers' approaches are explored with respect to the Bible, alluded to extensively throughout the play. Finally, with The Tempest (c.1611), I argue that Shakespeare's manipulation of audience expectation through the storm demands a reading which combines the metatheatrical and the ecocritical. Foregrounded as expressions of dramatic and environmental awareness, I bring new insights to Shakespeare's storms.

Abstract:
Linda Hogan é uma autora Chickasaw cuja extensa obra inclui romances, contos, poesia, drama e ensaios. Da mesma forma, ela é uma ambientalista cujo ativismo se baseia em uma compreensão Nativo-Americano da natureza e das relações entre os seres humanos e não-humanos. Focando em dois de seus romances, Solar Storms (1995) e Power (1998), a presente dissertação explora os processos de cura de suas protagonistas, Angela e Omishto, respectivamente. Em ambos romances, as personagens se engajam em um movimento de abandono do modo de ser Euro-americano – um modo de ser fortemente orientado pela ideologia do Destino Manifesto –, em direção a um reencontro com sua ancestralidade nativa e a uma apreensão tribal da vida e do mundo. Especificamente, esse trabalho explora o gradual engajamento das personagens no que a autora Laguna Paula Gunn Allen (1992) define como um senso de tempo cerimonial – a ceremonial time sense: uma experiência temporal particular que engendra uma integração psíquica, e se opõe à experiência cronológica e mecânica do tempo, a qual produz fragmentação no sentido de fortalecer a sensação de separação entre tempo e espaço, pessoa e lugar, natureza e cultura. Esse trabalho analisa como o movimento das personagens em direção a um rico autorreconhecimento enquanto indígenas (OWENS, 1994) representa um movimento de abertura aos fluxos do mundo, bem como um processo de dissolução de categorias fortemente enraizadas, tais quais sujeito e objeto, eu interno e mundo externo. Além disso, a presente dissertação examina de que forma um senso de tempo cerimonial se conecta à noção de sacred hoop (Plains tribes) – uma unidade abrangente que abarca a existência como um todo, e na qual todos os movimentos estão conectados e se relacionam entre si.
Linda Hogan is a Chickasaw author whose extensive work includes novels, short stories, plays, poetry, and essays. She is also an environmentalist whose activism is built upon a Native understanding of nature and the relations between human and nonhuman beings. This thesis focuses on two of her novels, Solar Storms (1995) and Power (1998), and explores the healing processes of their protagonists, Angela and Omishto, respectively. In both novels, the characters engage in a movement of abandoning a mainstream American way of being – a way of being highly informed by the ideology of Manifest Destiny – toward a reconnection with their Native ancestry and a tribal apprehension of life and the world. Specifically, this work explores the characters’ gradual engagement in what Laguna author Paula Gunn Allen (1992) defines as a ceremonial time sense, a particular experience of time that engenders a psychic integration, as opposed to a mechanical, clock-based time sense, which generates fragmentation and enhances a separation between time and space, person and place, nature and culture. This work explores how the characters’ movement toward a rich self-recognition as Indians (OWENS, 1994) represents a movement of opening to the motions of the lifeworld, as well as the dissolution of deep-rooted categories such as subject and object, internal self and external world. Furthermore, this thesis examines how a ceremonial time sense is connected to the Plains tribes’ conception of a sacred hoop – an all-encompassing unity that contains the whole of existence, and in which all movement is related to all other movement.

Resumo: O objetivo deste trabalho é analisar a novela Pole Poppenspäler como uma narrativa organizada ao redor do tema da oposição entre o artista e o burguês. Tal perspectiva de análise abrangerá não só o tratamento dado a essa temática, bastante cara à literatura alemã, mas também a sua representação no contexto do Realismo Poético e na própria evolução do gênero novela. Em Pole Poppenspäler o conflito gerado pela transição entre duas diferentes perspectivas, a do mundo pequeno burguês e a do artista, condensa-se, de forma simbólica, na trajetória das personagens Tendler e Paul, ao mesmo tempo em que está presente, de modo realista, a caracterização geográfica e humana das "pessoas simples" ("kleine Leute"), como camponeses, operários e artesãos. Também a regionalização geográfica e linguística estão de acordo com o repertório típico do realismo do século XIX, por meio da representação das paisagens alemãs e do uso de dialetos. Para que a nossa hipótese de interpretação fosse efetivamente realizada, a história do gênero novela foi revista em seus diferentes momentos de existência. Desse modo, pôde-se investigar de que maneira a alteração dos pressupostos históricos provoca alterações na representação do conflito entre as mentalidades do artista e do burguês
Abstract: The goal of this research is to analyze the short-novel Pole Poppenspaeler as a narrative organized around the theme of the opposition between the artist and the bourgeois citizen. Such an analysis perspective will comprehend not only the treatment given to the theme (very dear to German literature), but also the representation the theme has in the context of Poetic Realism, besides the way the genre of short-novel has develop itself. In Pole Poppenspaeler, the conflict generated by the transition between two different perspectives (one from the bourgeois world and another from the artist) condense itself, in a symbolic way, through the characters¿s Tendler and Paul journey; at the same time, it is present (in a realistic manner) the geographic and human characterization of "simple people" ("kleine Leute"), like countrymen, workmen and artisans. Also the geographic and linguistic regionalization are according to the typical repertory of the XIXth century realism. In order to our hypothesis of interpretation be effectively executed, the History of the short-novel as a genre was reviewed in its different moments of existence. Therefore, it is possible to investigate how the alteration of the hystorical processes provokes an alteration in the representation of the conflict between the artist¿s and the bourgeois citizen¿s mindsets.

Abstract:
The twofold purpose of this study is to clarify, on the one hand, the question of literary evaluation in general and of kitsch in particular, and, on the other, to analyse the prose works of Theodor Storm in the light of the theories of literary evaluation thus established. It therefore follows that the investigation falls into two main sections. The first is in essence theoretical. It consists of seven chapters, in which are examined the terminology, etymology and history of literary evaluation; the many different approaches to tackling and understanding the problem of kitsch (pedagogic, socio—economic, political, religious, moral, philosophical etc.); kitsch in its relationship to art; kitsch in literature and elsewhere (kitsch of both style and philosophy); kitsch and the consumer, especially the female consumer; kitsch's causes and functions under a variety of political and social regimes and, lastly, the possible dangers of kitsch and the remedies suggested to help counteract it. The second section commences with a survey of prominent trends in Storm research old and new, followed by an exploration of Storm's awareness of and relationship to his reading public and to his publishers, and the effect on his work of the demands of family finances. Three chapters are devoted specifically to Storm's wide—ranging techniques for appealing to his reading public, and four to one of the most important aspects of his work in relation to kitsch, the women figures and love and marriage in the 'Novellen'. Three more are given over to problems in his works, with particular emphasis on the function of social critic now widely claimed for him. Two chapters deal with Storm's literary aims, both in respect of artistic achievement and popular acclaim, how far he was successful in achieving them, and what shortcomings threatened to diminish the literary value of his works. Finally, there is a chapter on Storm's reception under various regimes and how prevailing ideological factions adapted the works for their own use, whilst Storm's reception in the immediate post—war era and in the present day is the subject of the conclusion.

Resumo: Moacir Costa Lopes se projeta na literatura brasileira em 1959 quando publica seu primeiro romance: Maria de cada porto. Desde essa primeira obra, Lopes já demonstra toda a peculiaridade de seu estilo fluido, do tratamento diferenciado dado ao tempo e principalmente da temática do mar, pouco abordada na literatura brasileira. A ostra e o vento, publicado em 1964, foi a quarta obra de Moacir C. Lopes e pode ser entendida como um marco em sua produção romanesca, pois representa o que se pode chamar de início da sua fase madura como romancista. Em A ostra e o vento o que se destaca é a afinidade amorosa e conflituosa entre uma garota, Marcela, e um ser chamado Saulo, espécie de força sobrenatural, relacionado ao vento. Essa relação pode ser projetada na metáfora da tempestade marítima, pois essa figura sugere, em essência, uma relação entre amantes, entre mar e vento. Este último seria o responsável pela formação das tempestades ao agitar as águas com sua força. Assim, Marcela, atormentada por Saulo acaba destruindo todos os habitantes da ilha, tal como um mar revolto destrói aqueles que ousam desafiá-lo. A utilização da metáfora da tempestade marítima na interpretação de A ostra e o vento se mostra proveitosa, sobretudo, por permitir um melhor entendimento de Saulo, aceitando-o como um person gem autônomo e não apenas uma alucinação de Marcela. Tal figura também permite uma melhor compreensão do mar e de sua importância nessa narrativa como caracterizador da protagonista. Desse modo, por meio da metáfora da tempestade marítima, pôde-se ler A ostra e o vento se afastando da visão comum que tende a relacionar o mar com José. Essa nova leitura permite compreender melhor as peculiaridades dessa obra de Lopes, principalmente as relacionadas à categoria narrador/foco narrativo
Abstract: Moacir Costa Lopes appears on Brazilian literature in 1959 when he published his first novel: Mary of each port. Since that first work, Lopes already demonstrates the peculiarity of his fluid style, the differential treatment given to time and especially the theme of the sea, little appreciated in the Brazilian literature. The Oyster and the Wind, published in 1964, was the fourth work by Moacir C. Lopes and can be seen as a landmark in his novelistic production, it represents what might be called the beginning of his maturity as a novelist. The oyster and the wind in what stands out is the affinity and conflicted love between a girl, Marcela, and be named Saulo, a kind of supernatural force, related to the wind. This relationship may be associated with the metaphor of a storm at sea, as this figure suggests, in essence, a relationship between lovers, between sea and wind. The latter would be responsible for the formation of storms to stir the waters with his strength. Thus, Marcela, plagued by Saulo destroys all the inhabitants of the island as a stormy sea destroys those who dare challenge him. Using the metaphor of the storm at sea in the interpretation of The Oyster and the Wind proves useful, particularly for allowing a better understanding of Saulo, accepting it as an autonomous character and not just a hallucination of Marcela. This figure also allows a better understanding of the sea and its importance in this narrative as the protagonist's characterization. Thus, through the metaphor of the storm at sea, we could view The Oyster and the wind moving away from the common vision that links the sea with Joseph. This new interpretation allows us to understand better the peculiarities of this work of Lopes, especially those related to the category narrator / narrative focus

Abstract:
Wind-induced failures of aluminum-alloy highway light poles during a winter storm are investigated. Wind-induced phenomena including along-wind buffeting and galloping-type vibration, initiated by the presence of freezing precipitation on the surface of the units, are analyzed. The dynamic performance of these systems is evaluated through numerical statistical simulations. The representation of the aerodynamic coefficients in the presence of freezing rain is based upon existing literature. Statistical methods were preferred due to the absence of field data and the inherent uncertainty associated with this particular event.

Abstract:
Water plays a lead role in shaping urban waterfront territories. They are generally located in the central part of the cities and are burdened with environmental challenges. Climate change is expected to increase extreme weather events with a larger volume of change in water. Sea level rise, high tides, storms, and floods enhance the vulnerability of such areas along the water. Waterfront territories are more vulnerable to changing water as they occupy the low-lying marshy land. How humans respond to flooding is one of the most challenging questions. The response involves using various built elements embedded in the urban morphology of waterfront territories. The objective of the paper is to identify, systematize and categorize the built elements that exist as a cause of changing water in urban waterfront territories, in the case of Kanpur riverine area and Dharavi, Mumbai. The methodology, exploratory and investigative in character, involve assessment by direct observations and interpretation from the sites, collected images and literature review from the previous published research. The cases from two different territories; formal and informal, enable findings and lessons that contribute to research into the lexicon of built elements necessary for addressing floods. Keywords: Adaptation; Floods; Built elements; Urban morphology

Abstract:
In Arctic regions, oil and gas (O&G) operations are adversely affected by harsh weather conditions and severe meteorological phenomena such as icing storms and, in certain regions, polar low pressures. Potential solutions, such as implementing winterisation concepts, are explored in the design and even operation phases in order to overcome such obstacles. Simply, the main aim of winterisation is to provide the crew and equipment units with a range of normal environmental and working conditions through, for instance, insulating equipment units, installing heat tracers, enclosing working areas, providing the crew with adequate clothing, etc. There are, however, some concerns about the efficiency of such winterisation measures and potential changes in operation risk level, of which the changes in plant downtime, production loss, and plant maintainability are the focus of present study. The issue of complex effects of winterisation measures on maintainability analysis of O&G plants operating in the Arctic offshore has gained little attention in the literature. In this study, different aspects of winterisation from the viewpoint of equipment maintainability are discussed. Further, a mathematical framework for maintainability analysis of equipment units subjected to winterisation measures is proposed. The impact of winterisation-related downtimes on plant downtime is analysed as well by employing a Monte Carlo system simulation technique. The application of the proposed framework is illustrated by a case study. The results are further compared with those for a non-winterised system designed for normal-climate regions.

Abstract:
This work is related to the track “Cultural and creative industries” and is based on the Horizon Europe project Music360 that will develop a platform to collect data to be used to analyze and represent the value of music. The economic value of background music has been studied by the literature and different variables can be taken into account. In this literature review, we have explored from more than two hundred papers which are these main variables that can help venues and stores to increase their incomes thanks to music, direct or indirectly. From the analysis, we can infer that the music genre, tempo, quality and volume, the size of the venue or store, the age or gender of the customer, the shopping spent time, the sentiment post-comments or the fit with the brand and product/service, can influence positively or negatively the customer experience and, hence, the expenditure and even the evaluation of the personnel. We can conclude that background music has shown relevant influence on the customer behaviour and, for this reason, it is important to match it whith the best positive experience on the customer depending on the kind of venue or store and the products/services offered.

Abstract:
Mevlânâ was born on September 30, 1207, in the city of Balkh, one of the old Turkish cultural centers, today within the borders of Afghanistan. His real name is Muhammed Celâleddin. His grandfather, Hüseyin Hatibî, was one of the great scholars of his time. His father, Bahâeddin Veled, was known as "Sultânü'l Ulemâ" (Sultân of Scholars). Sultânü'l Ulemâ, an honest person who did not hesitate to speak to anyone, would say everything he knew right in his lessons and sermons without knowing any boundaries. Language is the symbol of being human. Language, which is the necessity of being human, the development of thought and emotion, indispensable of respect and love, is a legacy that nations inherited from the past to the present and the future. It is a known fact that individuals speaking the same language have the same background, culture and values, that is, a common destiny. Our expressions clearly carry the values, norms and social control elements, beliefs and traditions of our nation and play an important role in transferring the above-listed ones to future generations with the help of the language they are a part of. Mevlana has a very important place in the history of Turkish literature. In our study, there will be a language study on volume I based on the book "All Stories in Mesnevi" prepared by Mehmet Zeren. Based on the auxiliary verbs in the stories in the book, the idioms in the sentence will be determined. The idioms determined in the work, the number of lines and the number of pages will be determined. How often the author has used idiomatic word groups and will evaluate the meaning he adds to the sentence. Key words: Mevlana, Mesnevi, İdiom, Language Study

Simulating environmental conditions for Southwest United States convective dust storms using the Weather Research and Forecasting Model v4.1. Engineer Research and Development Center (U.S.), August 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.21079/11681/44963.

Full text
Abstract:
Dust aerosols can pose a significant detriment to public health, transportation, and tactical operations through reductions in air quality and visibility. Thus, accurate model forecasts of dust emission and transport are essential to decision makers. While a large number of studies have advanced the understanding and predictability of dust storms, the majority of existing literature considers dust production and forcing conditions of the underlying meteorology independently of each other. Our study works to-wards filling this research gap by inventorying dust-event case studies forced by convective activity in the Desert Southwest United States, simulating select representative case studies using several configurations of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model, testing the sensitivity of forecasts to essential model parameters, and assessing overall forecast skill using variables essential to dust production and transport. We found our control configuration captured the initiation, evolution, and storm structure of a variety of convective features admirably well. Peak wind speeds were well represented, but we found that simulated events arrived up to 2 hours earlier or later than observed. Our results show that convective storms are highly sensitive to initialization time and initial conditions that can preemptively dry the atmosphere and suppress the growth of convective storms.

The impact of sea level rise during nor?easters in New England: Acadia National Park, Boston Harbor Islands, Boston National Historical Park, and Cape Cod National Seashore. National Park Service, 2024. http://dx.doi.org/10.36967/2304306.

Full text
Abstract:
This study examines the potential impact of sea level rise (SLR) caused by climate change on the effects of extratropical cyclones, also known as nor?easters, in four New England coastal parks: Acadia National Park (ACAD), Boston Harbor Islands National Recreation Area (BOHA), Boston National Historical Park (BOST) and Cape Cod National Seashore (CACO). A multi-method approach is employed, including a literature review, observational data analysis, coupled hydrodynamic-wave numerical modeling, 3D visualizations, and communication of findings. The literature review examines previous studies of nor?easters and associated storm surges in New England and SLR projections across the study domain due to climate change. The observational data analysis evaluates the characteristics of nor?easters and their effects, providing a basis for validating the model. Numerical modeling is performed using the Advanced Circulation (ADCIRC) model, coupled with the Simulating Waves in the Nearshore (SWAN) model to simulate storm surges and waves. The model was validated against available observations and demonstrated its ability to simulate water levels, inland inundation, and wave heights in the study area with high accuracy. The validated model was used to simulate three powerful nor?easters (April 2007, January 2018, and March 2018) and each storm was simulated for three sea levels, (1) a baseline mean sea level representative of the year 2020, as well as with a (2) 1 ft of SLR and (3) 1 m of SLR. Analysis of the model output was used to assess the vulnerability of the parks to nor?easters by examining peak impacts in the park areas. Additional simulations were conducted to evaluate the role of waves in predicting peak water levels and the impact of inlet configurations on storm surges within coastal embayments behind the barrier beach systems in the southern Cape Cod region. The project developed maps, three-dimensional visualizations, and an interpretive film to assist the parks in planning for resource management, maintenance, emergency management, visitor access, safety, education, and outreach. These tools provide a better understanding of the potential impacts of nor?easters and SLR and enable the parks to better prepare for future storms.

Abstract:
Insurance is a tool for financial risk management used by individuals, organizations, governments and businesses to safeguard themselves against the risk of uncertain financial losses, such as those occurring as a result of damage during an unexpected disaster. However, providing insurance in areas prone to natural hazard events (for example wildfires, droughts, storms, floods) has long been a challenge, and as extreme weather events around the world become more frequent and severe, the increasing cost of the damage they inflict is pushing the industry to breaking point in certain areas. Since the 1970s, damages from weather-related disasters have increased seven-fold, with 2022 alone seeing $313 billion in global economic losses. Climate change is dramatically shifting the landscape of risks, with the number of severe and frequent disasters forecast to double globally by 2040, causing insurance prices to rise and threatening the viability of insurance as an option for many. As we see areas around the world being hit with increasingly expensive damages and being pushed towards a tipping point of “uninsurability”, this report delves into the various underlying drivers of the problem, and the actions we can take to avoid it. This technical background report for the 2023 edition of the Interconnected Disaster Risks report analyses the root causes, drivers, impacts and potential solutions for the space debris risk tipping point our world is facing through an analysis of academic literature, media articles and expert interviews.

Full text
Abstract:
This Technical Report was developed by the U. S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center-Environmental Laboratory (ERDC-EL), to summarize the known impacts to nesting sea turtles along the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts resulting from beach nourishment. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) is responsible for maintaining the nation’s infrastructure to include ports and harbors through dredging of Federal navigation channels as well as shoreline stabilization. Shoreline stabilization through beach nourishment activities can provide opportunities for reductions in storm surge, flood control, and provide opportunities for residential growth, recreational activities, and coastal habitat restoration (Guilfoyle et al. 2019). Beach nourishment is an effective method for protection and enhancement of coastal development projects but may have detrimental impacts on marine life (e.g., nesting sea turtles and shorebirds). The objective of this Technical Report is to examine all elements of the beach nourishment process to include, active beach construction, entrainment of marine turtles in hopper dredges, beach protection and hard structures, beach profile features, compaction and shear resistance, artificial lighting, marine turtle nest relocation, and nesting habitat factors. Recommendations for mitigating and minimizing these impacts are provided.
