New forms of hazards generated by extreme weather pose new challenges to emergency management. The purpose of this paper is to identify a typical evolution dynamics by analyzing coupling and embeddedness in risk evolution via critical infrastructure system under extreme weather. Evidence from...

Emergency resource management, as a critical way of decreasing loss from natural hazards, has encountered some deficiencies in practice. The purpose of this paper is to develop strategies to improve emergency resource management by referring the resilience perspective, so that the severity of...

A number of studies have reported an extension of the thermal growing season in response to the warming climate during recent decades. However, the magnitude of extension depends heavily on the threshold temperature used: for a given area, a small change in the threshold temperature results in...
