Enablers and barriers to implementing effective disaster risk management according to good governance principles
Despite the increasing frequency and intensity of natural hazard-induced disasters, global disaster risk governance predominantly focuses on theoretical frameworks and broad policies, with a noticeable gap in the effective local implementation of strategies grounded in good governance principles. This research aims to address this gap by evaluating the alignment of local disaster risk management policies with key good governance principles includ…
Forest dynamics mapping in central Vietnam from 1988 to 2022 using Landsat time-series data
Forests provide essential ecosystem services, including biodiversity conservation, climate regulation, and livelihoods for millions of people worldwide. This study provides a comprehensive analysis of land-use and land-cover (LULC) changes with a focus on forest cover changes in Huế, central Vietnam, over the period from 1988 to 2022. Huế is a region of ecological and cultural significance, home to diverse forest ecosystems that play a critical r…
A novel approach to developing local flood vulnerability scenarios based on the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways framework
A novel method downscales global SSPs to regional flood-risk contexts. • SSP narratives bridge disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation domains. • Socioeconomic trends link with vulnerability data for sector-based planning. • Comparing SSPs shows sustainable policies can reduce flood vulnerability. • The SSP-based vulnerability framework is transferable to other regions. Developing locally tailored vulnerability scenarios is crucial …
Advancing understanding of the complex nature of flood risks to inform comprehensive risk management
Driven by rapid climate, socio-economic, environmental, and political change, flood risks in urban regions are on the rise. Given that cities and urban regions are highly complex and integrated systems comprising social, ecological and infrastructure domains, flood risks in urban regions are characterized by high levels of complexity, such as cascading effects, interconnected risks and interacting risk drivers. To ensure the effectiveness of risk…
Safeguarding Our Heritage—The TRIQUETRA Project Approach
Cultural heritage (CH) sites are frequently exposed to natural elements, and their exposure becomes particularly precarious with the onset of climate change. This increased vulnerability places these sites at risk of deterioration or complete destruction. Risks such as land deformation, floods, acid rain, and erosion significantly threaten historic monuments, while water-related hazards, significantly influenced by both climate change and human a…
Interpreting gaps
Unlike other Upper Paleolithic industries, Gravettian assemblages from the Swabian Jura are documented solely in the Ach Valley (35-30 Kcal BP). On the other hand, traces of contemporaneous occupations in the nearby Lone Valley are sparse. It is debated whether this gap is due to a phase of human depopulation, or taphonomic issues related with landscape changes. In this paper we present ERT, EC-logging and GPR data showing that in both Ach and Lo…
