Disaster Resilience and Sustainability, Adaptation for Sustainable Development, 2021, Pages 1-20
This book chapter advances SDGs 9 and 11 by explaining how increasing frequency and intensity of natural disasters in Asia have become a huge challenge to achieve sustainable development. The main purpose of this chapter is to capture the multidisciplinary and multisectoral aspects of disaster resilience, adaptation strategy, and sustainability, and connect existing data, research, conceptual work, and practical cases on disaster risk management and its linkage with sustainable development under a common umbrella.

This book chapter addresses SDGs 11 and 13 by focusing on disasters in Asia and how building disaster resilience is a multi-faceted challenge that takes partnership, data, work, and past case studies to navigate towards solutions.
This paper aims to contribute to the limited understanding and recognition of soil ecosystem services (SoES) in spatial planning.
Slow onset processes have been increasingly linked to human mobility in the global policy space.
Droughts are significant drivers of land degradation, which in turn has adverse effects on resource-dependent rural populations and can potentially lead to livelihood losses and subsequent migration o
As sea level rise drives saltwater farther inland, drinking water supplies of some coastal cities will be contaminated.
Sea-level rise poses a significant threat to Small Island Developing States (SIDS) due to the concentration of people, assets, and infrastructure in coastal zones.
Loss and Damage studies have tended to focus on rapid-onset events with lesser attention to slow-onset events such as drought.
Sea level rise and land subsidence — induced flooding are projected to have severe impacts on highly populated Asian deltaic cities.
This article synthesizes recent empirical literature on human mobility linked to slow-onset impacts of climate change.
