Landscape, Livelihoods and Risk: Community Vulnerability to Landslides in Nepal [PDF]
, 2009 The occurrence of fatal landslides in Nepal is increasing with time, faster than the effects of monsoonal variations. Possible explanations for the trends observed include: land-use change, population growth, and the development of transport ...

The 2025 Kamchatka Earthquake and Tsunami: Cascading Impacts and Risks to Japan
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT On July 29th, 2025, a large earthquake (Mw 8.8) occurred near the Kamchatka Peninsula. This event caused a tsunami that reached Japan's Pacific coast, even though the source was far away. In this study, we analyze the characteristics of earthquakes and tsunamis and discuss how they relate to the recurrence possibility and risk in Japan.

Estimating Arias Intensity From Response Spectrum
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Arias intensity serves as a crucial metric to measure ground motion energy and is extensively utilized in earthquake engineering to analyze structural damage, slope instability, and the potential for soil liquefaction. Nevertheless, in many practical design scenarios, only the response spectrum is available, without corresponding information ...

Multi‐Hazard Shaking‐Tsunami Fatality Risk Estimation for Coastal Communities
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study develops a multi‐hazard fatality risk model for a coastal community (Tofino) on Vancouver Island, Canada, subjected to earthquake‐tsunami threats from the Cascadia subduction megathrust events. The model incorporates variable population distributions and uncertain fatality rate models, in addition to other key model components, such

Landslide Topography of the Sumikawa Landslide
Landslides, 1998 A landslide occurred at Sumikawa hot-spa in Kazuno City, Akita Prefecture on May 11, 1997. The landslide destroyed 9 houses of Sumikawa hotspa and the debris avalanche changed from landslide hit Akakawa hotspa and national road No.341. Since the Kazuno city office issued the refuge advice, the human damage was not generated.This study based on field ...

Fire and Rescue Service Preparedness for Natural Hazards
Fire and Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Natural hazards driven by extreme weather events are expected to continue to pose a significant risk to citizens, property and the environment. Based on a series of national and international interviews with the Fire and Rescue Service (FRS), this paper presents an analysis of present practices within the FRS and FRS willingness to employ a ...
