“…Some studies also sought to examine the sector's resilience from climate change and the COVID-19 pandemic, while other studies focussed on obtaining insights into the sector's future under the two challenges of COVID-19 and climate change [74][75][76][77][78][79]. Over the same period, interest has grown in understanding the human health impact of climate change and COVID-19, with the focus also extended to mental health [80].…”

This study presents a comprehensive overview of the evolving landscape of tourism and climate change research over the past decade by leveraging bibliometric analysis and a dataset sourced from the Scopus Database. The study scrutinised over 3400 English language articles. The analysis reveals a remarkable surge in publications, signifying the growing recognition of climate change’s multifaceted impact on tourism. However, a noteworthy geographical disparity emerges, with many regions remaining underrepresented in the literature, particularly in Africa and the Middle East. This oversight is concerning, given the vulnerability of these regions to climate change and their burgeoning tourism industries. The study also highlights the pivotal role of influential scholars, funding organisations, and publication outlets in shaping the research landscape. The European Commission and the National Natural Science Foundation of China are major funders. At the same time, journals like Sustainability and the Journal of Sustainable Tourism serve as prominent platforms for disseminating research findings. The analysis uncovers thematic trends, including the growing focus on climate change modelling and its implications for destination planning. However, research gaps persist, notably in sports tourism and climate resilience within the tourism sector. In conclusion, this study offers valuable insights into the current state of tourism and climate change research, pinpointing areas that demand increased attention and inclusivity. It is a valuable resource for scholars, policymakers, and stakeholders working towards a sustainable and resilient future for the global tourism industry in the face of climate change.

Abstract. Floods are among India's most frequently occurring natural disasters, which disrupt all aspects of socio-economic well-being. A large population is affected by floods during almost every summer monsoon season in India, leaving its footprint through human mortality, migration, and damage to agriculture and infrastructure. Despite the massive imprints of floods, sub-basin level flood risk assessment is still in its infancy and needs to be improved. Using hydrological and hydrodynamical models, we reconstructed sub-basin level observed floods for the 1901–2020 period. Our modelling framework includes the influence of 51 major reservoirs that affect flow variability and flood inundation. Sub-basins in the Ganga and Brahmaputra River basins witnessed the greatest flood extent during the worst flood in the observational record. Major floods in the sub-basins of the Ganga and Brahmaputra occur during the late summer monsoon season (August–September). Beas, Brahmani, upper Satluj, Upper Godavari, Middle and Lower Krishna, and Vashishti sub-basins are among the most influenced by the dams, while Beas, Brahmani, Ravi, and Lower Satluj are among the most impacted by floods and the presence of dams. Bhagirathi, Gandak, Kosi, lower Brahmaputra, and Ghaghara are India's sub-basins with the highest flood risk. Our findings have implications for flood mitigation in India.
