The 6–7 July 2010 meteotsunami along the coast of Portugal: insights from data analysis and numerical modellingSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 106 - Trang 1397-1419 - 2020
Jihwan Kim, Rachid Omira
On 6 and 7 July 2010, uncommon sea waves were observed along the coast of
Portugal. The Portuguese tide gauge network recorded the sea-level signals
showing tsunami-like waves of heights varying from 0.14 to 0.6 m
(crest-to-trough) and of periods in the range of 30 to 60 min. Analysis of both
oceanic and atmospheric data revealed the occurrence of a meteotsunami in the
night of July 6th that propa... hiện toàn bộ
Does a Kuznets curve apply to flood fatality? A holistic study for China and JapanSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 71 - Trang 2029-2042 - 2013

A Kuznets curve is the graphical representation of Simon Kuznets’ hypothesis
that as a country develops, there is a natural cycle of economic inequality
driven by market forces, which at first increase inequality and then decrease it
after a certain average income is attained. The concept has been applied to
environmental studies hypothesizing that the relationship between per capita
income and th... hiện toàn bộ
A refined model of a typhoon near-surface wind field based on CFDSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 114 - Trang 389-404 - 2022

The simulation of near-surface typhoon wind fields is crucial for high-precision
typhoon hazard assessments and thus of great significance for disaster
forecasting, loss risk assessment and emergency management. The terrain
correction method for simulating regional large-scale wind fields has a single
correction method that cannot satisfy the requirements of refined risk
assessment. This paper aim... hiện toàn bộ
Activity and distribution of geohazards induced by the Lushan earthquake, April 20, 2013Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 73 - Trang 711-726 - 2014

An Ms7.0 earthquake, focal depth 13 km, struck Lushan on April 20, 2013, caused
196 deaths and 21 missing, 13,484 injuries, and affected more than two million
people. A field investigation was taken immediately after the quake, and the
induced hazards were analyzed in comparison with the Wenchuan earthquake. We
have identified 1,460 landslides and avalanches and four dammed lakes, which
were gener... hiện toàn bộ

The Landslide happens in mountainous regions due to the catastrophe of slope
through intensive rain and seismicity. The Himalayas is one of the susceptible
parts of the world in the perspective of slope catastrophe hazard; i.e., Mass
Movement, especially Neelum valley is considerable destruction of community
infrastructure, highway, and critically disturbed the tourism segment. Landslide
is a comm... hiện toàn bộ
Landslide susceptibility evaluation in the Chemoga watershed, upper Blue Nile, EthiopiaSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 113 - Trang 1391-1417 - 2022

Landslide susceptibility consists of an essential component in the day-to-day
activity of human beings. Landslide incidents are typically happening at a low
rate of recurrence when compared and in contrast to other events. This might be
generated into main natural catastrophes relating to widespread and undesirable
sound effects. Landslide hotspot area identification and mapping are used for
the r... hiện toàn bộ
Spatial and temporal changes in flood hazard potential at coastal lowland area: a case study in the Kujukuri Plain, JapanSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 84 - Trang 1513-1527 - 2016
Huali Chen, Yuka Ito, Marie Sawamukai, Tao Su, Tomochika Tokunaga
The spatial–temporal change in flood hazard potential in the coastal lowland
area was analyzed in the Kujukuri Plain, Japan, where widespread occurrence of
land subsidence, the expansion of urban area, and the change in land cover have
been reported. The data on flood hazard potential factors (river system,
elevation, depression area, ratio of impermeable area, detention ponds, and
precipitation) ... hiện toàn bộ
