From multi-hazard early warning systems (MHEWS) to all-vulnerability warning systems (AVWS) [PDF]
iScienceSummary: Science, policy, and practice have long accepted that disasters occur due to vulnerabilities rather than hazards, yet approaches to warnings still tend to be hazard-focused.

Evaluation of Satellite Precipitation Estimates over the South West Pacific Region
Remote Sensing, 2021 Rainfall estimation over the Pacific region is difficult due to the large distances between rain gauges and the high convection nature of many rainfall events. This study evaluates space-based rainfall observations over the South West Pacific Region from

Coastal Inundation Hazard Assessment in Australian Tropical Cyclone Prone Regions
Hydrology, 2023 One of the hazards associated with tropical cyclones (TCs) is a storm surge, which leads to coastal inundation and often results in loss of life and damage to infrastructure.

Flood Exposure Assessment and Mapping: A Case Study for Australia’s Hawkesbury-Nepean Catchment
Hydrology, 2022 Floods are the most common and costliest natural disaster in Australia. However, the Flood Risk Assessments (FRAs) employed to manage them are hazard-focused and tend to overlook exposure and vulnerability.

Flood Vulnerability Assessment and Mapping: A Case Study for Australia’s Hawkesbury-Nepean Catchment
Remote Sensing, 2022 Floods are one of the most destructive natural hazards to which Australia is exposed. The frequency of extreme rainfall events and consequential floods are projected to increase into the future as a result of anthropogenic climate change. This highlights

An internet-worm early warning system [PDF]
IEEE Global Telecommunications Conference, 2004. GLOBECOM '04., 2005 We propose an Internet-worm early warning system, which integrates a set of novel techniques that automatically detect the concerted scan activity of an on-going worm attack. It is able to issue warning at the early stage of worm propagation and to provide necessary information for security analysts to control the damage.
