The social amplification of risk and the hazard sequence: The October 1995 oral contraceptive pill scare [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Hazard notifications routinely occur as part of the identification or management of a hazard. It is argued that a series of such notifications - a hazard sequence - may affect public responses to future notifications about that hazard and also that ...

Henon-like maps with arbitrary stationary combinatorics

open access: yes, 2010
We extend the renormalisation operator introduced in \cite{dCML} from period-doubling H\'enon-like maps to H\'enon-like maps with arbitrary stationary combinatorics.

Spécificités de la conservation muséale de fragments d'environnements d'art brut

open access: yesCeROArt : Conservation, Exposition, Restauration d'Objets d'Art, 2016
This study is about sculptures coming from an outsider art environment in Normandy, now conserved in the LaM. The study pointed out specific conservation issues linked to this type of spontaneous creation and particularly to objects that were museified ...

Hazard Exposure Heterophily: A Latent Characteristic in Socio-Spatial Networks Influencing Community Resilience [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
We present a latent characteristic in socio-spatial networks, hazard-exposure heterophily, to capture the extent to which populations with similar hazard exposure could assist each other through social ties. Heterophily is the tendency of unlike individuals to form social ties.

Mapping of Landslide Hazard Distribution in Alo Watershed Gorontalo Regency [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Landslide occurrence can be influenced by physical factors and human activities. Thus, research related to the provision of information about landslide distribution in Alo watershed is needed as a basis in enhancing community preparedness in dealing with

Combining transient dynamics and logistic‐asymptotic growth to study the recovery of two seabird populations after rat eradication

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
This study examines the demographic dynamics of two seabird populations on Tromelin Island, 15 years after the eradication of brown rats. The results indicate that these populations are in good health and are expected to continue growing until breeding sites are saturated in about a century.

Classifying Cycling Hazards in Egocentric Data [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
This proposal is for the creation and annotation of an egocentric video data set of hazardous cycling situations. The resulting data set will facilitate projects to improve the safety and experience of cyclists. Since cyclists are highly sensitive to road surface conditions and hazards they require more detail about road conditions when navigating ...

The unpredictably eruptive dynamics of spruce budworm populations in eastern Canada

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
We examine historical population data for spruce budworm from several locations through the period 1930–1997, and use density‐dependent recruitment curves to test whether the pattern of population growth over time is more consistent with Royama's (1984; Ecological Monographs 54:429–462) linear R(t) model of harmonic oscillation at Green River New ...
