Description

NEW AGE DISASTERS: The Emerging Science of Extreme Events in a Changing Climate New Age Disasters is a comprehensive, science-driven exploration of how climate change is fundamentally reshaping natural hazards in the 21st century. Moving beyond traditional disaster narratives, this book explains why extreme events are becoming more intense, more frequent, and more interconnected—and why past experience is no longer sufficient to manage future risks. Blending atmospheric science, climatology, disaster studies, and real-world case analyses, the book examines modern extremes such as rapidly intensifying cyclones, deadly heatwaves, urban floods, glacial lake outburst floods, wildfires, droughts, and compound disasters. It reveals the physical mechanisms behind these events, including ocean heat content rise, atmospheric blocking, jet stream shifts, monsoon variability, cryosphere instability, and nonlinear climate feedbacks. A defining feature of the book is its strong emphasis on process-based understanding. Each hazard is explained through clear conceptual frameworks, scientific diagrams, and evidence-based reasoning, enabling readers to understand not just what is happening, but why. The book also integrates advances in forecasting, satellite meteorology, reanalysis data, machine learning, and early warning systems, highlighting how disaster prediction is evolving in a warming world. Beyond science, New Age Disasters addresses the ethical and governance dimensions of climate risk—climate justice, intergenerational responsibility, and unequal vulnerability—making it clear that disasters are not purely natural, but socially amplified. Who this book is for: Students and aspirants of civil services, environmental studies, geography, and disaster management Meteorologists, climate professionals, planners, and policymakers Researchers and educators seeking structured, modern explanations of extreme events Any reader who wants to understand the science behind today’s headlines on climate disasters Rigorous yet accessible, New Age Disasters is both a reference work and a wake-up call—demonstrating that the disasters of the future are already being shaped today, and that understanding their science is the first step toward resilience and survival.
