Scenarios about 'hurricane mitigation'
Hurricane mitigation encompasses strategies, technologies, and policies designed to reduce the destructive impacts of tropical cyclones on communities and infrastructure. These measures include engineered solutions like storm-resistant building codes and seawalls, natural approaches such as wetland preservation, early warning systems, and evacuation planning. Hurricane mitigation has grown increasingly important as coastal populations expand and climate change potentially influences storm intensity and frequency.
