“This extreme event resulted in record-breaking insured losses of $4.7–$5.9 billion from the floods in western Germany alone.”

“On this day, Liguria received 7.1 inches in 1 h and over 35.4 inches in a 24-h period. These cities experienced severe damage to buildings and physical infrastructure such as roads and bridges, and social infrastructure such as schools and public places.”

You need low relative humidity, drier than average conditions or dry conditions, and wind. These are primary meteorological factors that lead to wildfire risk...not necessarily ignition but spread, says NCDP climate scientist Andrew Kruczkiewicz.

"Involuntary immobility" is a silent struggle faced by many communities trapped in climate-vulnerable areas. In a recent Nature article, UN University - EHS expert Dr. Lisa Thalheimer-Prezyna calls for an inclusive approach to safeguard vulnerable populations: unu.edu/ehs/news/prior…

How can policymakers help people who can't flee climate risks and natural hazards? A new study by CIESIN's Fabien Cottier and @Alex_deS, NCDP's Andrew Kruczkiewicz, LDEO's Dr. Mona Hemmati and Radley M. Horton, and colleagues explores solutions. news.climate.columbia.edu/2025/03/17/how…

In many cases, involuntarily immobile populations fall within that most vulnerable category. We don’t have the appropriate level of detail in terms of data to understand in a way that respects who they are and their differences, Andrew Kruczkiewicz. news.mongabay.com/2025/04/global… Columbia Climate School

Going forward, we will find ourselves pairing new with familiar, trusted tech. This should include a mix of new, perhaps AI-enabled tech., along with early warning of sirens and@NOAAweather radios that transmit warnings even when cellular service is not available. Andrew Kruczkiewicz

In this Q&A, NCDP climate scientist Andrew Kruczkiewicz talks about why Texas floods were so devastating, how warning systems need to consider different populations, and how we might integrate technology + local knowledge to avoid tragedy in the future: news.climate.columbia.edu/2025/07/15/a-d…
