Item Hurricane Harvey Research Bibliography(2023-02-08) Hazard Reduction & Recovery Center (HRRC)Hurricane Harvey was a Category 4 hurricane; it made landfall in Rockport, Texas on August 25, 2017. After the initial landfall, the storm stalled over Houston, Texas for a week, resulting in massive amounts of rainfall and flooding. This resulted in 27 trillion gallons of rain and $125 billion in damage. Hurricane Harvey had a huge impact on Texas and provides valuable evidence for other states that may be affected by similar events in the future. We believe that scientific research can support communities, states, and the nation better mitigate and recover from such disasters. This bibliography supports our mission to share scientific knowledge about hazards and disasters with scholars, students, policy-makers, and the public.
