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

Sustainable Development, Volume 34, Issue 6, Page 8018-8057, October 2026.
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.

Assessing Deep Learning Segmentation Models for Mapping Landslides From LiDAR‐Based Elevation Data

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Robust landslide inventories are critical for characterizing landslide hazard and helping reduce societal vulnerability. For this study, LiDAR‐derived digital elevation models (DEMs), their derivatives, and a landslide inventory were used to train different deep learning segmentation models to assess the functionality of automatic segmentation

Uncertainty in Precipitation Estimates Warrants Greater Consideration in Debris‐Flow Research

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Quantitative precipitation estimates (QPEs) may provide a valuable data resource for investigations of postfire debris flows. In mountainous regions where debris flows typically occur, gauge coverage can be sparse; gridded QPEs offer remotely sensed and/or physics‐based precipitation estimates where no direct measurement is available. However,

GIS Methodology to Assess Landslide Susceptibility: Application to a River Catchment of Central Italy

, 2012
This paper illustrates a geographic information system (GIS) supported methodology for the assessment of landslide susceptibility. The methodology involves four operational steps: survey, site analysis, macro- area analysis and susceptibility ...

The role of land use and land cover on landslide susceptibility assessment

, 2023
The role of land use and land cover (LULC) as a conditioning factor for landslide susceptibility has been the subject of numerous scientific studies worldwide. Regarding this topic, Quevedo et al.

A Systematic Comparison of Statistical and Machine-Learning Models for Mapping Landslide Susceptibility: Evidence from the 2018 Rainfall-Induced Landslides in Hiroshima

GeoHazards
Landslide susceptibility mapping (LSM) is an essential tool for hazard assessment and land-use planning in landslide-prone areas. This study compares three statistical models—Frequency Ratio (FR), Weight of Evidence (WoE), and Logistic Regression (LR ...

Rethinking Systemic Risk: An Orthogonal Interaction Framework Linking System‐Wide Disruption and Systemic Vulnerability

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract This paper proposes an integrative conceptual framework for understanding systemic risk as emerging in highly interconnected socio‐ecological‐technical systems. Previous research has often examined hazard‐driven risk and vulnerability as separate analytical problems. We argue that systemic risk develops through their interaction within systems

Slope angle as indicator parameter of landslide susceptibility in a geologically complex area

, 2013
Slope angles are a key parameter in estimating susceptibility to developing earth flows. In this paper, slope angles are used to estimate potential unstable areas in a pilot sector of the Benevento province in (Southern Italy).
