(Un-)desired tailored warnings – an assessment of the preference for tailored heat warnings of the Swiss public
The ongoing climate crisis makes early warning systems for floods, heatwaves, and heavy rainfall increasingly important. As a result, the UN Secretary-General has launched the Early warning4all initiative together with the World Meteorological Organization. This initiative aims to ensure early warnings for everyone worldwide by 2027. One way to make early warnings even more effective is to tailor or even personalize them based on people's needs a…
Designing understandable, action-oriented, and well-perceived earthquake risk maps—The Swiss case study
With seismic risk assessments becoming more available and reliable over the last years, the need to communicate seismic risk emerged. Seismic risk allows people to understand what impacts earthquakes can have and how they could affect their lives. In Switzerland, a nation-wide seismic risk model (ERM-CH23) was published in 2023 demanding sophisticated communication products to inform about its results. Since only limited research has been conduct…
Social perspectives of carbon capture, transportation, utilization, and storage in Switzerland
Carbon capture, transportation, utilization, and storage (CCT(U)S) is indispensable to reduce the hard-to-abate emissions and, consequently, to achieve the Swiss climate goals by 2050. Around the world, there are various efforts of CCT(U)S. The pilot project Demonstration and Upscaling of CARbon dioxide Management solutions for a net-zero Switzerland has evaluated the technological, economic, regulatory, and social feasibility of two specific CCT…
Nine recommendations for engaging with the public and stakeholders for Carbon Capture, Transportation, Utilization, and Storage
A successful implementation of Carbon Capture, Transportation, Utilization, and Storage (CCTS/CCUS) projects depends on proactively communicating to and engaging with the public and relevant stakeholders. Based on our research in the framework of a pilot project demonstrating two complementary CCTS/CCUS pathways for Switzerland, we underpin this importance and present and exemplify nine recommendations for communication and stakeholder engagement…
Illustrating the impact of earthquakes
Risk-based earthquake scenarios and rapid impact assessments can meaningfully improve how societies prepare for and deal with earthquakes. However, this is only the case when they are understood and perceived as useful to support mitigation and recovery actions. In this study, we are among the first to empirically assess how to best design earthquake scenarios and rapid impact assessment meeting the needs of different target audiences. We applied…
Earthquake early warning in Central America
Central America has an elevated seismic risk, resulting from the vulnerability of the building stock and steady population growth. Earthquake Early Warning (EEW) aims to provide warning in advance of imminent shaking, allowing recipients to take action and reduce casualties during damaging motions. The Swiss Seismological Service (SED) has been collaborating with local seismic agencies to develop national EEW systems across Central America, which…
Earthquake early warning in countries where damaging earthquakes only occur every 50 to 150 years – The societal perspective
Earthquake Early Warning (EEW) systems can trigger actions just before the shaking hits and hence mitigate the impact of damaging earthquakes. Recent studies have mainly focused on technical challenges, performance or on the attitudes of the public towards EEW systems in countries where EEW systems are already in operation or where damaging earthquakes are frequent. Building on these efforts, from the societal perspective we assess how different …
Actionable and understandable? Evidence-based recommendations for the design of (multi-)hazard warning messages
Communicating event-related hazard information can help prompt effective public responses and, consequently, reduce injuries and fatalities. Real-time information is commonly communicated to the public through multi-hazard platforms. However, whether these platforms' messages are correctly understood and whether they increase people's intention to take action is yet to be proven. We thus aimed at compiling recommendations on how to develop action…
Why should I use a multi-hazard app? Assessing the public's information needs and app feature preferences in a participatory process
In the age of nearly instant information and high-bandwidth communication, public expectations regarding the availability of authoritative short-term and real-time hazard information are evolving rapidly. Despite the existence of numerous apps covering hazard information, little research has been conducted to assess what the public actually expects from such an app. Perceived usefulness is crucial as the public will only use apps offering an adde…
What defines the success of maps and additional information on a multi-hazard platform
Triggered by technical progress that has allowed for the combining of information about natural, anthropogenic and socionatural hazards, numerous multi-hazard platforms have been established over the last years. Despite their increasing use, surprisingly, little research has been conducted evaluating how the public perceives of the hazard information provided by these multi-hazard platforms. Because most of them use maps on the start page, we wer…
