A national seismic risk model for El Salvador
Impact of population spatiotemporal patterns on earthquake human losses
Occupancy patterns are known to strongly affect the number of people killed by earthquakes. Existing exposure models for Europe based on housing census do not account for the daily movement of the population between the place of residence (residential occupancy) and places of economic activity (non-residential occupancy), or the seasonal patterns due to tourism. This study presents a framework to upgrade exposure models from static to 'dynamic', …
Probabilistic seismic risk assessment of Africa
Junior university
The Universidade Júnior (U.Jr.) program, initiated by the University of Porto (U.Porto), Portugal, is a comprehensive educational initiative conducted during the summer months, primarily targeting the 10–18 age group. The program aims to promote science, technology, arts, humanities, and sports knowledge among elementary and secondary-level students and to influence their vocational choices and higher education aspirations. The study analyses the…
Biomarkers of Pesticide Exposure in a Traditional Brazilian Amazon Community
In 2008, Brazil became the country with the highest pesticide use in the world, with over one billion liters of pesticides applied to crops in 2009. The impacts of these products on public health are wide-ranging. Vast territories are affected, involving different population groups, such as workers in various fields of activity, the population that consumes contaminated food, and people living around factories, such as traditional communities. Th…
Exploring benefit cost analysis to support earthquake risk mitigation in Central America
Development of a uniform exposure model for the African continent for use in disaster risk assessment
The importance of indirect losses in the seismic risk assessment of industrial buildings – An application to precast RC buildings in Portugal
Observations from past destructive earthquakes indicate that indirect economic losses can greatly exceed the direct economic losses. However, the influence of indirect losses is often neglected in seismic risk studies due to the complexity associated with their evaluation, as well as the fact that direct losses tend to gather public attention due to human losses and the visual impact of structural damage. This issue is particularly evident in the…
Forecasting seismic risk within the context of the Sendai framework
Probabilistic earthquake and flood loss assessment in the Middle East
Data schemas for multiple hazards, exposure and vulnerability
Purpose Using risk-related data often require a significant amount of upfront work to collect, extract and transform data. In addition, the lack of a consistent data structure hinders the development of tools that can be used with more than one set of data. The purpose of this paper is to report on an effort to solve these problems through the development of extensible, internally consistent schemas for risk-related data. Design/methodology/appro…
