Spatial Analysis of Traffic and Risks in the Coastal Zone

Journal of Coastal Conservation, 2008
Management of the coastal zone for the purposes of conservation and sustainability is a well-described concept in the literature. This paper describes the importance of modelling various forms of maritime traffic as an intrinsic element of this process.

Risk zones and longshot bias: an exploratory analysis

International Journal of Applied Decision Sciences, 2010
This paper examines decision making in a special case of risk and uncertainty that is similar to pari-mutuel betting. Specifically, this paper examines following issues: the presence of a longshot bias; the strategies participants adopt in making a priori selections; the effect of these strategies on total payoff; and the association of these ...

[Neural risk zones in rhytidectomy].

Handchirurgie, Mikrochirurgie, plastische Chirurgie : Organ der Deutschsprachigen Arbeitsgemeinschaft fur Handchirurgie : Organ der Deutschsprachigen Arbeitsgemeinschaft fur Mikrochirurgie der Peripheren Nerven und Gefasse : Organ der V..., 1987
During the last decades the treatment of the ageing face has evolved from a mere action at the skin level, towards an additional correction of the ptosis of the underlying soft tissues, and procedures involving the bony-cartilaginous framework. Any new rhytidectomy technique with deep undermining should be examined with regard to high risk areas.

An Optimal Control Problem with a Risk Zone

2018
We consider an optimal control problem for an autonomous differential inclusion with free terminal time in the situation when there is a set M (“risk zone”) in the state space \(\mathbb {R}^n\) which is unfavorable due to reasons of safety or instability of the system.

GEOLOGICAL RISKS OF BAIKAI COASTAL ZONE

Proceedings of International Conference "Managinag risks to coastal regions and communities in a changinag world" (EMECS'11 - SeaCoasts XXVI), 2017
The geologic-geophysical researches including focused on geological dangers in 2015 captured a coastal zone of the southern hollow of Baikal. The methodical basis of these works is made by lake profile and areal surveillance with application of side location, continuous seismoacoustic profiling, a protsezionny ekholotirovaniye, underwater television ...

Landslide risk assessment and zoning

2006
Landslide risk maps are increasingly used as documents. Mapping at large scales requires a good accuracy in determining unstable areas and their extent. A brief review of methods and techniques used in landslide risk assessment is presented.

Characterization of Risks in Coastal Zones: A Review

CLEAN – Soil, Air, Water, 2012
AbstractInterest in sustainable development for the natural, socio‐economic, and cultural resources of coastal zones is growing worldwide. On the other hand, the range of threats to coastal zones increasingly posed by hydro‐meteorological natural phenomena has led to a trend in the analysis and assessment of risks to these areas.

European Sovereign Systemic Risk Zones

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2016
This paper proposes a novel framework identifying sovereign systemic risk zones. We first explore the cross-dynamics of sovereign CDS in terms of time-changing contagion measures based on copulas and then assemble these measures together with country-specific fundamentals through recursive partitioning, thereby producing important leading indicators ...
