Compiled by Dr. Karen Lowrie, (Managing Editor of Risk Analysis) and Dr. Louis Anthony (Tony) Cox, this special virtual issue of Risk Analysis, prepared a year after Harvey and in the wake of Florence, offers insights on how best to anticipate, communicate, manage, mitigate, respond to, recover from, and learn from such disasters. The issue consists of papers drawn from past issues of Risk Analysis, with a deliberate bias toward the most recent and up-to-date papers. It is an update of a virtual issue originally prepared following Hurricane Harvey, updated in September of 2018 to provide the most recent advances to readers and researchers.
