Flooding is one of the main physical hazards that is projected to become more frequent and severe as the climate warms. Construction firms, financial institutions, the insurance industry, and ...

Over the past decades, environmental scientists and engineers have been trying to devise effective solutions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and mitigate the adverse effects of climate change. This ...

The Colorado River is a lifeblood for the U.S. Southwest that provides tap water for some 40 million people and irrigation for 2.6 million acres of crops in seven states and Mexico. But as water flows ...

This paper proposes a dynamic multi-scenario modeling approach for air conditioning (AC) cluster loads, integrating occupant behavior, spatiotemporal activity distributions, and meteorological factors ...

Developing future climate projections begins with choosing future emissions scenarios. While scenarios are often based on storylines, here instead we produce a probabilistic multi-million-member ...

For nearly 20 years, a hidden assumption inside a climate computer model has been scaring the hope for a good future out of your children. Last week, the scientists behind it finally admitted what ...

Recent advances in generative AI are changing how leaders approach scenario planning and development with more nimble and rapid approaches . Readers have requested additional examples of how more ...

When major new climate change scenarios are released, there’s always strong interest. These scenarios lay out what our future climate will look like, depending on how fast we act to cut emissions. But ...

There is a question that sits unanswered in the model validation reports of almost every major bank. It is not about calibration. It is not about backtesting. It is far more fundamental than either.
