Description
This triptych shows the flight of Minamoto no Yoshitsune and his men (including the warrior-monk, Benkei) from the wrath of Minamoto no Yoritomo. As they cross Daimotsu Bay, the grotesque ghosts of Taira samurai, who had drowned in the sea battle of Dan-no-ura, rise from the sea. Led by the general Taira no Tomomori, they attack Yoshitsune’s ship.

Description
Research into the sensitivity and vulnerability of urban water systems in Arizona reveals that managers are more concerned about factors such as population growth projections, economic trends, and revenue flows. Reliance on groundwater resources in many cases obscures recognition of any direct impact of precipitation on water supply. Given the low level of perceived climate risk among many providers interviewed for this study, it would seem unlikely that climate information would be needed. However, pockets of sensitivity and vulnerability to climatic impacts do exist in the four study areas covered in this study.
