To foster content-driven communication and discussions centered around climate resilience, we encourage members to share their publications within this group. Kindly submit the details of your own or others' publications to the group assistant at klima.r...@gmail.com, who will consolidate and distribute them 2 or 3 times per month. In order to reduce email loads considering the group's extensive global membership of over 1800 participants, we kindly request not to post publications individually.

The posting of publications lies on relevance and quality rather than quantity. Only selected publications meeting the following five criteria will be included in the postings:

1. The topic must directly relate to climate resilience.
2. The title must incorporate the term resilience, resiliency, or resilient.
3. It must be a scientific research publication in peer-reviewed journals, monograph, or edited book volume.
4. The publication must be published within the last 3 years and in English.
5. Information must include the full names of all authors, and a webpage link.
