(author), van der Heuvel, Jasper (author), Diaz, Andres (author)Mean sea level rise (SLR) could increase up to 2m by 2100, which would see damage caused by coastal flooding in Europe increase from €1.25bn per annum currently to €961bn in just over 80 years. Urban areas situated along the North Sea coastline are particularly vulnerable to extreme sea level rise (a combination of SLR, tide and storm surges)....journal article 2022

Goncalves, J. E. (author), Verma, T. (author), Arab, R. (author)In urban areas, climate change effects are often associated with increasing risks of flood, heat waves, and sagging. Increasing climate risks exacerbate existing urban inequalities, poverty levels, and environmental degradation. Global urban policy is reacting to these urban issues by calling for making cities more inclusive, safe, resilient,...conference paper 2022

Suresh Iyer, A. (author)Moral support with AI has been gaining traction. The proponents of moral support with AI claim that some of the more problematic behavioural patterns of humans can be resolved with the help of AI, such as inability to extend moral concern to global level problems like climate change and refugee crisis. They offer a variety of ways of doing so-...conference paper 2022

(author), Feng, Ming (author), Babcock, Russell C. (author)Positive feedbacks driving habitat-forming species recovery and population growth are often lost as ecosystems degrade. For such systems, identifying mechanisms that limit the re-establishment of critical positive feedbacks is key to facilitating recovery. Theory predicts the primary drivers limiting system recovery shift from biological to...journal article 2022

Zhang, Chao (author), Tan, Yiqiu (author), Gao, Y. (author), Fu, Yongkang (author), Li, Jilu (author), Li, Shuai (author), Zhou, Xingye (author)The service performances of asphalt pavement, especially rutting, will be inevitably affected by climate change. However, existing studies have generally focused on the rutting depth and rutting life, and thus became insufficient for comprehensively evaluating the influence of climate change on rutting over the service life. A resilience...journal article 2022

Crosato, A. (author), Grissetti-Vázquez, A. (author), Bregoli, F. (author), Franca, M.J. (author)Climate change has a direct influence on both hydrology and floodplain vegetation of water courses, which are key players in river morphodynamics. The river system response to climate change is complex and the effects of non-linear interactions between alterations in water, sediment and vegetation remain incompletely understood. Which of...journal article 2022

(author)Production of mature oil fields emits significant amount of CO<sub>2</sub> related to circulation and handling of large volumes of gas and water. This can be reduced either by (1) using a low-carbon energy source and/or (2) reducing the volumes of the non-hydrocarbon produced/injected fluids. This paper describes how improved oil recovery...journal article 2022
