Reducing tropical cyclone (TC) risk requires an integrated view that connects large-scale circulation and storm physics with nearshore processes, impacts, and the effectiveness of risk-reduction measures. This session invites studies that advance understanding across the full cascade: climate drivers and variability; TC genesis, track, and intensity-frequency change; atmosphere–ocean coupling (winds, waves, storm surge, rainfall); wind impacts, precipitation footprint, storm surge and wave dynamics; compound flooding, erosion, and other TC-related impacts; consequence modelling for people, health, ecosystems, the built environment, and critical infrastructure; and the appraisal and implementation of risk-reduction and adaptation options.
We particularly welcome contributions on modelling and downscaling (from global to local), ensembles and probabilistic methods, data assimilation and remote sensing, model evaluation, uncertainty quantification under climate change, and storylines or event attribution. The scope is global and includes unprecedented or record-breaking TCs, Medicanes or post-tropical transitions. Submissions addressing multi-hazard interactions, cascading and compounding effects, social vulnerability and exposure, as well as decision-support—such as early warning systems, risk communication, risk assessment, and appraisal of structural, nature-based measures and public policies—are encouraged.
