Mapping vulnerability to climate change [PDF]

This paper develops a methodology for regional disaggregated estimation and mapping of the areas that are ex-ante the most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change and variability and applies it to Tajikistan, a mountainous country highly vulnerable ...

Forecasting Cascading and Compounding Flood Risk From Earthquake‐Induced Ground Deformation

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Large earthquakes can disrupt river systems and produce abrupt, unforeseen changes in flood risk. Forward modelling of earthquake‐related surface deformation and its influence on inundation extent, depth, and frequency enables pre‐emptive assessment of exposure to this compound hazard.

Sustainable and Seismically Resilient Confined Masonry: Global Progress in Research and Design Practice

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 4, November 2026.
Modern confined masonry (CM) construction consists of masonry walls confined by reinforced concrete (RC) tie‐columns and tie‐beams. When built correctly, CM buildings have shown good performance in earthquake's shaking. Even though CM construction has been practised for almost a century in some Latin American countries, its use and standardisation are ...

Influence of Site Amplification Approaches in PSRA: Insights From Five Different Cities

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 4, November 2026.
Regional and national seismic hazard models used in probabilistic seismic risk analysis often rely on generalized proxy‐based site terms to account for ground shaking amplification. This can result in coarse representations of site response, which can introduce bias or additional uncertainty in the associated risk results.

Accounting for Biases in the Analysis of Building Damage Data for the 2023 M7.8 Türkiye/Syria Earthquake Sequence

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 4, November 2026.
In the aftermath of a large earthquake, several practical constraints affect the systematic collection of data for assessing building damage. The available data are therefore typically incomplete, frequently missing key information such as the type of construction, age and geographic location.

CHARACTERIZATION OF TELUK SEPANG COASTAL LOCAL SEISMIC RESPONSE USING MICROTREMOR HVSR ANALYSIS

JGE
The coastal area of Teluk Sepang, Bengkulu City, Sumatra, Indonesia, is dominated by young alluvial and marine sediments that are highly susceptible to seismic wave amplification due to tectonic activity along the Indo-Australian–Eurasian subduction zone.

Seismic Vulnerability Index Study of Lasem Fault Zone Using HVSR Method Based on Microtremor Data

Berkala Sainstek
The Lasem Fault Zone is one of the tectonically active areas in Central Java that has the potential to trigger damaging earthquakes. To identify seismic vulnerability in this area, a microzonation approach based on soil dynamic parameters is required to ...

S. João de Loure Bridge: vulnerability assessment and study of a common strengthening solution [PDF]

, 2005
This paper presents a structural vulnerability assessment of the steel bridge S. João de Loure. A structural model of the bridge was created and the influence of the joint’s stiffness on its structural response was evaluated using the structural analysis
