Integrating three plan evaluation approaches for coordinated heat resilience in cities across the Arizona urban corridor
Increasing heat poses a growing threat to cities worldwide due to both climate change and the urban heat island effect. While heat planning and governance are still emergent, research suggests that silos and conflicts within cities' networks of plans often impede heat resilience. Integrated heat resilience planning, therefore, requires a systematic and comprehensive analysis of the silos and conflicts relevant to heat resilience within networks o…
Parent-reported clinical severity, functional challenges, and caregiver wellbeing in ASD: An exploratory pilot study
BACKGROUND: Parents of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) often experience considerable psychological, social, and physical strain. This study examined caregiver strain, resilience, perceived social support, and quality of life and compared the associations of parent-reported clinical severity and parent-reported functional difficulties with caregiver outcomes. METHODS: This exploratory cross-sectional pilot study included 37 parents of…
The Temples of the Demon
This is a travel memoir, with some illustrations through photo collages and drawings. The content is based on the author’s fleeting encounters with the rural cultures of indigenous (adivasi) Santal communities in a settlement called Para, located on the Chotanagpur Plateau in eastern India while working for a school run by a nonprofit organization. Honing in on displays of regional folk art on adivasi mud huts, the essay goes on to map a folktale…
A comparison of plan integration for flood and heat resilience: A case study of Baltimore, Maryland
A Socio-Demographic Analysis of Compassion Fatigue among Mental Health Practitioners
Plan evaluation for heat resilience: Complementary methods to comprehensively assess heat planning in Tempe and Tucson, Arizona
Escalating impacts from climate change and urban heat are increasing the urgency for communities to equitably plan for heat resilience. Cities in the desert Southwest are among the hottest and fastest warming in the U.S., placing them on the front lines of heat planning. Urban heat resilience requires an integrated planning approach that coordinates strategies across the network of plans that shape the built environment and risk patterns. To date…

Quality of Cities’ Networks of Plans and Prospects for Flood Resilience
Urban flood resilience is a function of the collective intent of all planning efforts or network of plans. Yet, most studies focus on single plan types; it is unclear whether plans work cohesively. We asked to what extent do networks of plans uniformly foster resilience to flooding. We adapted plan quality evaluation methodology to evaluate four cities’ networks of plans. All four networks uniformly state goals, including flood resilience and sus…
Urban Flood Resilience Networks: Exploring the Relationship between Governance Networks, Networks of Plans, and Spatial Flood Resilience Policies in Four Coastal Cities
Coastal cities facing growing flood risks are increasingly focused on resilience. Academic and policy discourse present a resilience-based approach to governing hazards as more collaborative, better connecting threats, systems, and actors. Literature on governance networks, collaborative governance, and networks of plans suggests collaboration enhances resilience, but empirical studies of the relationship between governance networks, networks of …
Comparing hazard mitigation and climate change adaptation planning approaches
Cities are developing hazard mitigation plans (HMP) and climate change adaptation plans (CCAP) with the common aim of proactively reducing vulnerability to future hazards. Yet, they are often treated as distinct planning instruments. Some planning scholars have suggested that HMP and CCAP should be integrated since climate change impacts are increasing and communities have limited time and resources. But, it is unclear how synergistic these two p…
More than the Sum of Their Parts: Approaches to Understand a Network of Plans
Communities create a variety of plans that collectively shape future development patterns. Methodological approaches to analyze multiple plans and their relationships have been underdeveloped. We compare four complementary methodological approaches to study the relationships between plans: (1) cross-referencing, (2) plan quality evaluation, (3) plan integration for resilience scorecard, and (4) social network analysis. We apply each approach to B…
Who collaborates on urban resilience? An analysis of flood resilience planning networks in four coastal cities
Cities are increasingly focused on building resilience. The literature on urban resilience governance emphasizes the importance of breaking down organizational silos and fostering collaboration between diverse actors. Yet few studies empirically examine whether existing resilience governance networks possess these theorized characteristics. This paper addresses this gap by focusing on flood resilience governance in four major U.S. cities and uses…

A plan evaluation framework for examining stakeholder policy preferences in resilience planning and management of urban systems
Is coastal adaptation a public good? The financing implications of good characteristics in coastal adaptation
Sea level rise poses a crisis for coastal communities. Many local governments have identified strategies to prepare for the impacts of sea level rise but often lack funding mechanisms. To date, the assumption that coastal adaptation is a public good has limited the tools used to finance responses to sea level rise. We argue that good characteristics - subtractability, excludability, heterogeneity, joint production, and capital intensity - combine…
Some Unexpected Sources for Paintings by the Artist Mihr Chand (fl. c. 1759–86), Son of Ganga Ram
Scholars have acknowledged that Mihr Chand, son of Ganga Ram (flourished c. 1759–86) is one of the finest artists to have flourished in the Mughal province of Awadh, at Faizabad and Lucknow, during the second half of the eighteenth century. Whilst it has been known that Mihr Chand received patronage from the British East India Company officer Antoine Polier (1741–95) and that the majority of his known works have been identified within the Polier-…
