Landslide mobility and landslide sediment transfer in Val di Sole, eastern Central Alps [PDF]
, 2012 We examine preliminary data from a landslide inventory that combines the mapping of landslides and deep-seated gravitational slope deformations (DSGSDs) in Val di Sole, eastern Central Alps, Italy.

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT While much is known about what drives general participation in climate action, less is known about the drivers of actions that are explicitly linked to time, resource, or convenience constraints (i.e., effortful climate action). Understanding what drives effortful climate action is important to effectively tackle climate change, as many high ...

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article investigates the characterization of cascading phenomena within sociotechnical systems through a systematic review and the development of a conceptual modelling framework. Cascading phenomena, often described using terms such as ripple effect, domino effect, cascading failure, risk propagation and cascading effect, capture the far‐

Detection of the 2015 Gorkha, Nepal Earthquake-induced Landslide Surface Deformation Using ALOS-2/PALSAR-2 Data [PDF]
, 2016 Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is the technique to obtain ground surface images using microwave that is emitted from and received on the antenna. A previous study revealed that landslides were triggered by the 2015 Gorkha, Nepal earthquake at more than 4,

Large‐scale tests of 50‐year‐old prestressed concrete bridge girders
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract An experimental investigation has been carried out as part of the BRIDGE|50 research project, focusing on large‐scale loading tests performed on five 50‐year‐old prestressed concrete (PC) girders. The study aimed at evaluating the structural response of five girders retrieved from a viaduct in the urban area of Turin, Italy, subjected to 4 ...

Trends in thunderstorm days, lightning activity, squalls and the environmental factors in Hong Kong
Weather, EarlyView.This study analyses trends in Hong Kong's convective weather using long‐term observer‐based and shorter‐term instrument‐based data. Annual thunderstorm days increased significantly by 1.9 days decade−1 in 1947–2024, notably in June–September, consistent with increasingly favourable warm‐season environments for thunderstorms.
