Critical infrastructure

Scientists from the Chinese Academy of Sciences have developed a new forecasting tool called iDust that improves predictions of dust storms, offering significant benefits for solar energy production.

Resilient design protects infrastructure and enhances community safety, economic stability, and sustainability. However, mobilizing resilient design and construction requires a comprehensive approach to motivating governments to prioritize resiliency.

The interdependencies of infrastructure systems mean that the impact of a disaster on one system can have far-reaching effects on others and the communities they serve, potentially causing "functional isolation".

The Technical Deep Dive (TDD) on Urban Flood Management convened 44 participants from 11 countries to exchange knowledge, explore innovative approaches, and collaborate on strategies for managing urban flood risks.

Nicknamed the "Bullet" for its speed, the new pump station is one of the many interventions under the Guyana Flood Risk Management Project, aimed at building resilience to disasters and reducing flooding in Guyana's coastal plain

This report explores how virtual power plants (VPPs) can transform energy resilience in the Caribbean, using the US Virgin Islands as a case.

The report reveals how U.S. corporate utilities fuel climate chaos and inequality through fossil fuel expansion, shutoffs during extreme heat, and opposition to renewables, worsening risks like heatwaves and wildfires across multiple states.

This study proposes a comprehensive flood management-level evaluation method focusing on the relationship between the complex spatial structure of subway stations and flood risk.
