Their collective efforts carry forward the Aggie Spirit through volunteer work, resource mobilization and emotional support for those affected.

Experts from the Texas A&M College of Architecture study the impacts of natural disasters and how communities recover.

As hurricane season continues to affect communities, researchers at Texas A&M are using AI to assess the damage.

Research led by atmospheric scientist Dr. John Nielsen-Gammon found that climate change has intensified storm-related rainfall by nearly 20%.

As hurricane season continues, Texas A&M experts explain how naming conventions for major storms have evolved over the years.

More than 40 faculty and staff experts are able to contribute to hurricane-related media coverage.

Counties on the disaster focus list include Matagorda, Wharton, Harris, Brazoria and Fort Bend.

Texas A&M researchers are using AI to improve the management of disasters like hurricanes before, during and after the events.
