Managing the Consequences of Weather, Climate, and Ocean Extremes in Our Warming World examines the impacts of weather and climate extremes and evaluates the steps that might be done to mitigate the negative effects of these extremes. The information is targeted and given in a cohesive and complete manner due to the author's broad and in-depth subject area expertise. The book complements the previously published volume Science of Weather, Climate and Ocean Extremes and will help professionals gain an authoritative, evidence-based, and practice-relevant understanding of the significant risks to the future performance of the human and natural systems they are managing.
