A Summary of Sandy Discussions
Friday, November 2, 2012 14:00
% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.
Here is a short guide to the various discussions of Sandy on this blog and from a few of my Tweets this week.
- Sandy damage estimates — currently around $30B — in the context of past storms, normalized to 2012 values.
- The entire time series of US normalized hurricane damage 1900-2012, including Sandy.
- An excellent talk from Chris Landsea, of the National Hurricane Center, on hurricanes and climate change from 25 Oct 2012 at the University of Colorado.
- An op-ed I had in the WSJ yesterday on disasters in context.
- Our 2008 paper on Normalized Hurricane Damage in the United States:1900-2005 and underlying data.
- The ICAT Damage Estimator, which extends our 2008 paper and combines it with a set of really neat online graphing and analysis tools.
- Does it make sense to use energy policy to modulate future disasters? No. Here is some peer-reviewed analysis that makes the point quantitatively.
Thanks!
