Environmental Impact of Silicic Magmatism in Large Igneous Province Events

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 133-151., 2021

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Transformative Pathways for Strengthening Climate‐Resilient Health Systems Among Indigenous Communities: Advancing Equity and Sustainability in Global Health

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Most climate‐resilience health interventions are designed at the global level, with minimal attention to Indigenous communities' needs. The lack of consideration can lead to unintended harm and exacerbate health risks. This study aims to identify the capacities of Indigenous communities that can serve as transformative pathways in safely ...

Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Assessment of Seismically Induced Landslide for Bakacak-Dϋzce Region

open access: yes, 2014
Earthquake induced slope instability is considered as one of the major sources of the earthquake hazards, especially in the near fault regions. Simplified tools as Newmark’s Sliding Block (NSB) analogy are commonly used to represent the slope stability ...

The Hidden Costs of Coffee Production in the Eastern African Value Chains

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT There is increasing recognition that significant hidden costs associated with agrifood systems are not reflected in market prices. Coffee is among the three most traded agricultural commodities in the world and supports the livelihoods of more than 30 million smallholder households.

Evaluation of a preliminary satellite-based landslide hazard algorithm using global landslide inventories [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2009
Most landslide hazard assessment algorithms in common use are applied to small regions, where high-resolution, in situ, observables are available. A preliminary global landslide hazard algorithm has been developed to estimate areas of potential landslide

Isolation, Insularity and Resilience: A Review of the Geophysical, Socioeconomic, and Environmental Vulnerabilities of Gran Canaria and Lesvos Islands for Policy Interventions to Global Change

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dynamic nature of small islands being geographically isolated and their perceived connectedness with global networks complicates research attempts to draw general conclusions on whether insularity leads to marginalization or strengthens their resilience for sustainable development.

Deterministic landslide hazard assessment at regional scale

open access: yes, 2010
The paper presents a new methodology for the deterministic assessment of landslide hazard at the regional scale in geologically complex chain areas. The methodology entails site specific geo-mechanical studies, as background of any hazard prediction ...
