Bermuda Risk Report Explores Local Hurricane Preparedness
BIOS’s Bermuda Risk project has released its postmortem report on Hurricane Joaquin. Along with the a study of the meteorology of the storm and its interaction with the ocean, the report also explores aspects of the island’s resilience and adaptation in the context of increased hurricane activity over the 2014 to 2015 period.
