Subject South Korea's economy and economic policy in early 2016. Significance South Korea's economy grew more slowly in 2015 than in the previous five years. With legislative elections due in April, President Park Geun-hye's government faces judgment on its failure to return the economy to its long-term trend rate. Impacts Divisions in the opposition camp will prevent economic problems doing serious damage to the governing party in coming legislative elections. Any electoral impact is likelier to be seen further ahead, in 2017's presidential election. Geopolitical tension on the Korean peninsula is unlikely to damage South Korea's economy in the medium term.

The 2004 presidential election in Texas was among the least contested in the country. This is not surprising given the state’s recent electoral history and the fact that George W. Bush could probably be elected king for life in his home state. Initially, we will discuss the results from the 2004 elections in Texas, examining the 2004 primary elections, the fundraising, and the general election results. Because this single election year only tells part of the story of the changes in the Texas electorate, we will also offer an historical analysis of the state’s partisan realignment as well as the reasons for this change and the extent to which this shift in the political landscape represents a long-term trend.

AbstractA dataset entitled “A potential risk index dataset for landfalling tropical cyclones over the Chinese mainland” (PRITC dataset V1.0) is described in this paper, as are some basic statistical analyses. Estimating the severity of the impacts of tropical cyclones (TCs) that make landfall on the Chinese mainland based on observations from 1401 meteorological stations was proposed in a previous study, including an index combining TC-induced precipitation and wind (IPWT) and further information, such as the corresponding category level (CAT_IPWT), an index of TC-induced wind (IWT), and an index of TC-induced precipitation (IPT). The current version of the dataset includes TCs that made landfall from 1949–2018; the dataset will be extended each year. Long-term trend analyses demonstrate that the severity of the TC impacts on the Chinese mainland have increased, as embodied by the annual mean IPWT values, and increases in TCinduced precipitation are the main contributor to this increase. TC Winnie (1997) and TC Bilis (2006) were the two TCs with the highest IPWT and IPT values, respectively. The PRITC V1.0 dataset was developed based on the China Meteorological Administration’s tropical cyclone database and can serve as a bridge between TC hazards and their social and economic impacts.
