Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 18, Issue 1, March 2025.ABSTRACT Climate change, urbanization, and anthropogenic activities have intensified rainfall and urban flooding, especially along coastlines. The high spatiotemporal variability and erratic pattern of rainfall highlight the incompetency of independent application of statistical forecasting techniques, especially over the tropics, and demand the ...

What is research data “misuse”? And how can it be prevented or mitigated?
Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, Volume 75, Issue 12, Page 1413-1429, December 2024.Abstract Despite increasing expectations that researchers and funding agencies release their data for reuse, concerns about data misuse hinder the open sharing of data. The COVID‐19 crisis brought urgency to these concerns, yet we are currently missing a theoretical framework to understand, prevent, and respond to research data misuse.

Wealth Over Woe: Global Biases in Hydro‐Hazard Research
Earth's Future, Volume 12, Issue 10, October 2024.Abstract Floods, droughts, and rainfall‐induced landslides are hydro‐hazards that affect millions of people every year. Anticipation, mitigation, and adaptation to these hazards is increasingly outpaced by their changing magnitude and frequency due to climate change.

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 17, Issue 3, September 2024.Abstract The Bangkok Metropolitan Region (BMR), located in the Chao Phraya River basin delta, is particularly vulnerable to floods, with susceptibility heightened by geographical aspects and rapid urbanization. This study aimed to assess spatiotemporal flood exposure and allow proper flood‐risk recognition among all stakeholders through a three‐phase ...

Market or clan: A comparative study of risk sharing institutional evolution in China and Europe
International Studies of Economics, Volume 19, Issue 2, Page 293-327, June 2024.Abstract In the psychological and sociological framework of risk, we establish a static and dynamic equilibrium model for risk‐sharing institutional evolution. Particularly, through a comparative study of marine insurance development in China and Europe, we address a wide set of research questions concerning why China and Europe relied on different ...

Developing a Fluvial and Pluvial Stochastic Flood Model of Southeast Asia
Water Resources Research, Volume 60, Issue 6, June 2024.Abstract Flood event set generation, as employed in catastrophe risk models, relies on gauge information that is not available in data‐scarce regions. To overcome this limitation, we develop a stochastic fluvial and pluvial flood model of Southeast Asia, using freely and globally available discharge data from the global hydrological model GloFAS and ...

Multisecret‐sharing scheme with two‐level security and its applications in blockchain
IET Blockchain, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 30-42, March 2024.Abstract A (t,m)$(t,m)$‐threshold secret sharing and multisecret‐sharing scheme based on Shamir's secret sharing scheme are introduced with two‐level security using a one‐way function. Besides, its application in a smart contract‐enabled consortium blockchain network is discussed.

The impact of sediment flux and calibre on flood risk in the Kathmandu Valley, Nepal
Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 49, Issue 2, Page 706-727, February 2024.Including sediment transport in flood hazard modelling can result in a larger inundation area and greater flood hazard, in addition to a change in river morphology. For low‐intensity, high‐frequency flood events, flood inundation is highly sensitive to sediment grain size distribution, but the importance of accurately estimating grain size distribution

Corruption, homelessness and disasters
Journal of International Development, Volume 36, Issue 1, Page 70-83, January 2024.Abstract Corruption is widely believed to contribute to homelessness following a disaster triggered by natural hazards, as it is known to weaken resilience, deplete resources and stifle recovery. We test the association between corruption and post‐disaster homelessness using data from the Emergency Events Database and data on corruption in the ...

On the link between credit procyclicality and bank competition [PDF]
This paper investigates the relationship between bank competition and credit procyclicality for 17 OECD countries on the 1986-2009 period. We account for heterogeneity among countries in terms of bank competition through the use of a hierarchical ...
