Many cities and countries remain chronically unprepared in what the UN calls an "adaptation gap". But there are five ways to catalyse more effective - and ultimately more progressive - climate adaptation and resilience.

Coastal models enhance understanding of future flooding frequency on atoll islands, paving the way to explore the limits of adaptation in the face of rising sea levels and climate change.

This National Briefing on Societal Resilience provides provides highlights from and focuses on the key issues discussed by participants at the 3rd National Conference on Societal Resilience which took place at The University of Manchester in March 2025.

Heat and humidity contributed to kidney damage and disease in the San Luis Valley in Colorado between 1984 and 1998, according to our recently published work in the peer-reviewed journal Weather, Climate, and Society.

Innovative solutions are needed to allow small island nations to manage debt and build climate resilience as global funding declines.

Using data from a technology called distributed acoustic sensing (DAS), researchers developed a method to provide warnings up to 30 minutes in advance of lava eruptions. The method offers a way to volcanic activity and provide early warnings.

This study examines the effectiveness of vegetative nature-based coastal solutions (NBCS) for mitigating coastal flood risk. The findings suggest that reliance on vegetative NBCS may not be sustainable for long-term coastal flood risk management.

This study investigates the impacts of wildfires on down-stream flood discharge in 30 Californian watersheds, finding positive correlations were between the enhancement in discharge volume and the percentage of burned watershed area.
