Threshold effects of hazard mitigation in coastal human–environmental systems
2014
Earth Surface Dynamics
<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> Despite improved scientific insight into physical and social dynamics related to natural disasters, the financial cost of extreme events continues to rise. This paradox is particularly evident along developed coastlines, where future hazards are projected to intensify with consequences of climate change, and where the presence of valuable infrastructure exacerbates risk. By design, coastal hazard mitigation buffers human activities against the variability of
