Sidelining Mitigation: Climate Delay Discourses Among Municipal Legislators in Southeastern Brazil
ABSTRACT This study investigates how municipal legislators frame climate mitigation and how these framings shift responsibility, narrow the perceived scope of municipal authority, and reduce the urgency or feasibility of local action. We analyzed 31 interviews with city councilors serving on Permanent Environmental Committees across municipalities in ...

Orchestration of Climate Action in Municipalities: A Collective Capacity Approach
ABSTRACT Municipalities are increasingly positioned as key actors in enabling local climate action, yet their ability to mobilise societal actors remains insufficiently understood. This study examines how municipal officials in six Finnish municipalities from different local contexts understand and operationalise collective capacity for climate action,

A Novel Multilevel Conceptual Framework for Flood Risk Governance
ABSTRACT Globally, flood risk is increasing as climate change progresses. Contemporary flood risk management practice often utilises hydrodynamic modelling (for hazard risk assessments), social vulnerability assessments, and risk communications in silo, which fragments evidence‐based decision‐making for effective flood risk management. We hence develop

Quantifying Model Selection Uncertainty in Structural Analysis: Methodology and Application
ABSTRACT With increasing focus on complex engineering systems under rare events, computational models are critical for predictions due to the scarcity or absence of data. However, selecting an appropriate model can be challenging. Using a single model without available test calibration could result in significant bias in performance predictions. A case

ABSTRACT Multivariate ground motion models (GMMs) that capture the correlation between different intensity measures (IMs) are essential for seismic risk assessment. Conventional GMMs are often developed using a two‐stage approach, where separate univariate models with predefined functional forms are fitted first, and correlation is addressed in a ...
