A primary goal is to present a scientific and socially integrated perspective on place-based community engagement, extreme weather, and health. Each year extreme weather is leading to natural disasters around the world and exerting huge social and health costs. The International Monetary Fund (2012) estimates that since 2010, 700 worldwide natural disasters have affected more than 450 million people around the globe. The best coping strategy for extreme weather and environmental change is a strong offense. Communities armed with a spatial understanding of their resources, risks, strengths, weaknesses, community capabilities, and social networks will have the best chance of reducing losses and achieving a better outcome when extreme weather and disaster strikes. 410 0$aExtreme Weather and Society,$x2367-3397 606 $aNatural disasters 606 $aClimatic changes 606 $aRegional planning 606 $aCity planning 606 $aEmergency medicine 606 $aPublic health 606 $aPhysical geography 606 $aNatural Hazards$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G32000 606 $aClimate Change/Climate Change Impacts$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/313000 606 $aLandscape/Regional and Urban Planning$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J15000 606 $aEmergency Services$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H73000 606 $aPublic Health$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H27002 606 $aEarth System Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G35000 615 0$aNatural disasters. 615 0$aClimatic changes. 615 0$aRegional planning. 615 0$aCity planning. 615 0$aEmergency medicine. 615 0$aPublic health. 615 0$aPhysical geography. 615 14$aNatural Hazards. 615 24$aClimate Change/Climate Change Impacts. 615 24$aLandscape/Regional and Urban Planning. 615 24$aEmergency Services. 615 24$aPublic Health. 615 24$aEarth System Sciences. 676 $a550 702 $aSteinberg$b Sheila Lakshmi$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aSprigg$b William A.$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254137803321 996 $aExtreme Weather, Health, and Communities$92528579 997 $aUNINA
