Probabilistic Tsunami Hazard and Risk Analysis: A Review of Research Gaps
Tsunamis are unpredictable and infrequent but potentially large impact natural disasters. To prepare, mitigate and prevent losses from tsunamis, probabilistic hazard and risk analysis methods have been developed and have proved useful.

Microbiological safety of processed meat products formulated with low nitrite concentration — A review [PDF]
Nitrite plays a major role in inhibiting the growth of foodborne pathogens, including Clostridium botulinum (C. botulinum) that causes botulism, a life-threatening disease. Nitrite serves as a color-fixing agent in processed meat products.

Managing uncertainty in flood protection planning with climate projections [PDF]
Technical flood protection is a necessary part of integrated strategies to protect riverine settlements from extreme floods. Many technical flood protection measures, such as dikes and protection walls, are costly to adapt after their initial ...
