“…Across many regions, more extreme droughts are expected in the twenty-first century due to the combined effects of global climate change and precipitation anomaly. Indeed, all kinds of losses caused by droughts will increase in the coming period [8,9]. Therefore, the research on drought has become the focus of water resources and natural hazards studies.…”

Assessment and diagnosis of regional agricultural drought resilience (RADR) is an important groundwork to identify the shortcomings of regional agriculture to resist drought disasters accurately. In order to quantitatively assess the capacity of regional agriculture system to reduce losses from drought disasters under complex conditions and to identify vulnerability indexes, an assessment and diagnosis model for RADR was established. Firstly, this model used the improved fuzzy analytic hierarchy process to determine the index weights, then proposed an assessment method based on connection number and an improved connection entropy. Furthermore, the set pair potential based on subtraction was used to diagnose the vulnerability indexes. In addition, a practical application had been carried out in the region of the Huaibei Plain in Anhui Province. The evaluation results showed that the RADR in this area from 2005 to 2014 as a whole was in a relatively weak situation. However, the average grade values had decreased from 3.144 to 2.790 during these 10 years and the RADR had an enhanced tendency. Moreover, the possibility of RADR enhancement for six cities in this region decreased from east to west, and the drought emergency condition was the weak link of the RADR in the Huaibei Plain.

“…Tropical cyclones are one of the most threatening natural hazards that can have catastrophic consequences on human lives and properties (Estrada et al, 2015). Tropical cyclones 1 can cause damage to human lives and property in three ways: i) extremely strong winds that damage assets and other fragile infrastructure; ii) considerable volumes of rainwater that cause flooding; and iii) high waves and storm surges that wash away people and property (Murray et al, 2012). The Saffir-Simpson Scale, which is an estimate of wind-speed near the earth's surface, is applied to categorize the intensity of storms from category 1 to 5.…”

Climate-related natural disaster shocks are expected to rise as the earth is getting warmer, which will adversely affect growth globally. Empirically, the effects of typhoons and droughts have negative impacts on economic growth and would likely to persist up to 2 decades. Using the typhoon landfalls and damage in Asia, we analyze the winddamage relationship and find damages to gross domestic product increase by 2.3% for an increase in maximum wind speed. The extreme projected temperature rise in Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) 8.5 will result in higher typhoon damage by more than 50% in 2100. Vulnerable developing Asian economies could expect dampened growth with significant impacts on agriculture and tourism, a concern that may undermine years of development and worsen inequality. To cope with increasing disaster risks, both short-term adaptation strategies like relocation, government transfers, and other social safety nets, as well as long-term strategies are needed.
