Since the storm, the regents have committed to spending $713 million to restore the campus, construct new medical towers, and return John Sealy Hospital to its 550 bed pre-storm capacity.
Another common measure of natural capital may be storm water retention capacity of green space or surface water nutrient reduction capacity of wetlands.
For instance, considering the city's intense rainfall, there will now be more storm water storage capacity using interdependent components such as integrated wetlands and circulating canals.
Due to speculative investing, oil refiners jumped in anticipation of the storm cutting refining capacity and ultimately increasing those companies' margins, though they fell Thursday on the announcements from the IEA and Energy Department.

During the Trial of Gotovina et al before the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia, Reynaud Theunens compared Operations Mistral 2 and Storm in his capacity as an expert witness for the prosecution.
Finally, S. sediforme interacted with annuals to reduce substrate temperature and presence of annuals reduced substrate moisture thereby improving storm-water abatement capacity.
Rainfall rates such as these may overwhelm the capacity of storm drains, resulting in local flooding.
For example, large increases in heavy precipitation have occurred in the Northeast, Midwest, and Great Plains, where heavy downpours have frequently led to runoff that exceeded the capacity of storm drains and levees, and caused flooding events and accelerated erosion.
It may be good strategy for Ford to weather this storm by cutting back capacity instead of hacking prices.
Short duration rainfall intensity in Taiwan has increased in recent years, which results in street runoff exceeding the design capacity of storm sewer systems and causing inundation in urban areas.
