According to the NHC,"The Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale is a 1 to 5 categorization based on the hurricane's intensity at the indicated time. The scale provides examples of the type of damage and impacts in the United States associated with winds of the indicated intensity." It is impo...

We found climate zone, round-trip time to collect water, water availability at the handwashing site, and soap/detergent availability at the handwashing site to be the most robust modifiers of the association between drought and diarrhea risk (Fig. 4). We observed significant effect modification ...
The permanent flooding conditions at low topographical elevations have resulted in the massive mortality of highly flood-adapted trees. The effects have probably cascaded down to the entire food web of the riparian zone (Schöngart et al., 2021). Forest destruction in catchment areas strongly ...

Therefore, ignoring the tide-surge interaction component will result in an overestimation of the flood risk in some areas60. This could be improved in the modeling framework by, for instance, including the dependence between surge and tidal level. We do account for seasonality as tides are ...
