Sequencing Finance for Climate Resilience: Instruments, Institutions and Hong Kong's Role in Mobilising Private Capital in Southeast Asia

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates innovative financing strategies to mobilise private capital for climate adaptation, emphasising Hong Kong's role in advancing efforts across Southeast Asia. Using expert interviews and case studies, it addresses two key questions: which financial instruments can strengthen public–private collaboration, and what best ...

Magnitude and seismogenic fault determination of ground effects paleosismic-induced at Huoshan and Guzhen in Anhui province, China

Geodesy and Geodynamics
In paleoseismic research, defining the age of an event is relatively straightforward, but pinpointing its magnitude with precision is challenging. This difficulty primarily arises because physical parameters, such as rupture area and displacement, which ...

Seismic risk assessment of urban and rural settlements around Lake Malawi [PDF]

, 2016
The seismic risk potential for Malawi is high because traditional adobe and earthen structures are seismically vulnerable and large earthquakes of Mw7.0 or greater can be originated from the Malawi Rift. To assess seismic risk of the Malawian communities

Ensemble‐based soil liquefaction assessment: Leveraging CPT data for enhanced predictions

Civil Engineering Design, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 23-35, March 2025.
Abstract This study focuses on predicting soil liquefaction, a critical phenomenon that can significantly impact the stability and safety of structures during seismic events. Accurate liquefaction assessment is vital for geotechnical engineering, as it informs the design and mitigation strategies needed to safeguard infrastructure and reduce the risk ...

基于钻孔数据的北京地区覆盖层厚度与场地自振频率的经验关系

Dizhen xuebao
针对当前北京地区缺乏适用的覆盖层厚度与场地自振频率经验关系的现状，首先利用广泛收集的北京市地震安全性评价工作中获取的1 142个钻孔数据资料，采用幂函数模型对其进行回归拟合分析，获得了土体剪切波速随深度变化的关系式，然后对该关系式进行推导建立了适合北京地区场地特征的覆盖层厚度与场地自振频率之间的经验关系，藉此为北京市无剪切波速数据的工程场地提供vS20和vS30参考，并对土层剪切波速和覆盖层厚度进行预估。
