Bridges	Bridges may be damaged or become unstable due to floods or gale-force winds during cyclones	Argyroudis25
Water supplies	Droughts may result in the depletion of water supplies	Pokhrel30
Waste Management Systems	Increased temperatures may accelerate waste degradation and release more greenhouse gases	Wang31
Irrigation	Diminished water supplies may result in the need for reduced irrigation as a water conservation strategy	Sánchez-Blanco32
