Needs and uses of scientific information for earthquake and monsoon contingency planning by humanitarian clusters in Nepal
Embedding scientific knowledge in policy and practice is crucial for effective disaster risk reduction and planning, but key barriers remain in using science effectively for these purposes. In countries like Nepal, subjected to frequent multi-hazards like earthquakes and landslides, science is acutely needed but not always utilized for risk planning. Here we explore the current uses and requirements for science-based risk information in earthquak…
Interdisciplinary perspectives on the intersections of roads, sustainable development, and disaster resilience
Natural hazard-influenced disasters, sustainable development, and roads are closely intertwined. Governments and funding agencies worldwide are increasingly focused on delivering disaster-resilient road infrastructure. However, the multifaceted, ubiquitous, and contested nature of road networks means that making them resilient to disasters is a complex task. Efforts to build resilient roads generate trade-offs against other policy goals like clim…

Geomorphology of the eastern Badia basalt plateau, Jordan
The eastern Badia of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan is a landscape developed predominantly on late Tertiary and Quaternary basalt lava flows, which vary in age between 8.9 million and 0.1 million years. Pyroclastic deposits are associated with remnant volcanic cones. There is limited, seasonal rainfall. Natural vegetation regenerates during cool, damp months. Slopes, which range from concave to convex forms and have varying relief, can be relate…
