Levee failures during Hurricane Katrina resulted in massive flooding which did not recede for months. With temperatures becoming more extreme, and storms increasing in magnitude, American infrastructure and risk-management policies require close examination in order to decrease the damage wrought by natural disasters. .Climate Change and Infrastructure, Urban Systems, and Vulnerabilities. addresses these needs by examining how climate change affects urban buildings and communities, and determining which regions are the most vulnerable to environmental disaster. It looks at key elements of urban systems, including transportation, communication, drainage, and energy, in order to better understand the damages caused by climate change and extreme weather. How can urban systems become more resilient? How can citizens protect their cities from damage, and moreeasily rebound from destructive storms? This report not only breaks new ground as a component of climate change vulnerability and impact assessments but also highlights critical research gaps in the material | 出版日期 | Book 2014Latest edition | 关键词 | Climate change; Extreme weather; Hurricanes Irene & Katrina; Infrastructure; Risk-management policy; urba | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.5822/978-1-61091-556-4 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-61091-556-4Series ISSN 2945-5677 Series E-ISSN 2945-5685 | issn_series | 2945-5677 | copyright | Island Press 2014 |
