Scientific evidence for ecosystem-based disaster risk reduction
Identifying Emerging Issues in Disaster Risk Reduction, Migration, Climate Change and Sustainable Development
Resilience – an emerging paradigm of danger or of hope
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to explore whether “resilience” offers any positive inputs to international discourse in the field of disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation and if so, what recommendations can be made for further research on the topic. Design/methodology/approach – In addition to an in-depth literature review, observations on resilience were made based on interdisciplinary research conducted in Nepal 2008-201…
The 2005 Pakistan Earthquake Revisited
Five years after the 2005 Pakistan earthquake that triggered multiple mass movements, landslides continue to pose a threat to the population of Azad Kashmir, especially during heavy monsoon rains. The thousands of landslides that were triggered by the 7.6 magnitude earthquake in 2005 were not just due to a natural phenomenon but largely induced by human activities, namely, road building, grazing, and deforestation. The damage caused by the landsl…
Alternatives for Sustained Disaster Risk Reduction
The daily media is filled with images of catastrophic events which seem increasingly frequent and violent. In parallel there are a large range of scientific studies, debates in the policy arena, and a growing number of international institutions focused on disaster reduction. But a paradox remains that despite advances in technology, disasters continue to increase, affecting many individuals in rich as well as poor countries
Smoking habits among Swedish dental hygienists
Objectives: The aim of the study was to explore the smoking habits of Swedish dental hygienists over a 15‐year period from 1987 through 2002, and compare these with the smoking habits of Swedish women in general during the same period. Methods: Random samples of dental hygienists in the age range 20–65 years representing 95% of the Swedish work force were collected based on professional membership. Smoking prevalence data for Swedish women in the…
