Concurrent Crises and Non‐State Service Provision
ABSTRACT Concurrent crises represent a significant challenge for disaster and public health governance. Activated in response to one threat, governing institutions may be distracted or stretched thin during an emergent crisis. In such crises, governments and communities rely heavily on non‐state service providers such as non‐profit organizations and ...

The Ensemble Kalman Inversion Race
Abstract Ensemble Kalman methods were initially developed to solve nonlinear data assimilation problems in oceanography but are now popular in applications far beyond their original use cases. Of particular interest is climate model calibration.

Interval Data Assimilation: A Data Assimilation Scheme Where All Observations Are Intervals
Abstract With the proliferation of non‐conventional observations from low‐cost sensors, citizen science networks, and binary detection systems, data assimilation increasingly confronts observations that take the form of inequalities or intervals rather than precise point values.

Seismic Meta‐Fragility Functions
ABSTRACT Fragility functions make for one of the three key components of probabilistic seismic risk analysis, along with hazard and consequence and/or exposure models. They are, in principle, construction‐specific; however, risk analysis is more often performed on a larger (e.g., regional) scale. In this case, so‐called typological fragility curves are

Bridges represent critical yet vulnerable elements of Morocco's transportation infra-structure. This vulnerability is particularly concerning in seismically active regions such as the Nador area in northeast Morocco, where the convergence of the Eurasian and Nubian plates along the Alboran Sea generates significant seismic hazard.
