NEAR-TERM BENEFITS FROM INVESTMENT IN CLIMATE ADAPTATION COMPLEMENT LONG-TERM ECONOMIC RETURNS FROM EMISSIONS REDUCTION

Abstract Previous studies have suggested that a combined strategy using both emissions abatement and climate adaptation can improve economic outcomes.Here, using a parsimonious economic-climate assessment model, we have shown that, relative to investment in abatement, adaptation has a much shorter timescale for economic return.Adaptation deployed i

An improved multi-objective design optimization framework is proposed for the efficient design of proprotor blades tailored to specific high-altitude mission requirements.This framework builds upon existing methods by leveraging a reformulated Vortex Particle Method (rVPM) and incorporates three key stages: (1) rapid determination of overall propro
