Social-ecological vulnerability roles an important aspect in coastal sustainability. Research on assessing social-ecological vulnerability and risk to coastal flooding was conducted by research team members led by Dr. Mohamad Shad and his co-author. Abstract Traditional flood risk assessment studies mainly looked at potential exposures and damage to human settlements, without […] - Climate Change Impacts on Potato Storage
Potato storage can help reduce food loss and waste while increasing long-term food security. Research on climate change impacts on potato storage was carried out by climate-smart lab team members, leading by Shu and his co-authors. Abstract In this study, we present a comprehensive literature review of the potential impacts […]
