ABSTRACT Global climate change has elevated the strategic importance of corporate climate risk disclosure, yet the role of industry peer effects in shaping such disclosure remains underexplored. Grounded in social learning theory, this study proposes an “observation–imitation–reinforcement” framework and empirically tests it using panel data on Chinese

Model test on the dynamic behavior of submarine landslides impacting the submarine pipeline
Submarine landslides are a common marine geological disaster characterized by large volume, fast speed, significant disaster-causing effect, and huge range of impact, which can damage marine engineering structures, resulting in significant economic ...

Fire and Rescue Service Preparedness for Natural Hazards
ABSTRACT Natural hazards driven by extreme weather events are expected to continue to pose a significant risk to citizens, property and the environment. Based on a series of national and international interviews with the Fire and Rescue Service (FRS), this paper presents an analysis of present practices within the FRS and FRS willingness to employ a ...

Tsunamis from submarine landslides [PDF]
Most tsunamis are generated by earthquakes, with secondary, less frequent, mechanisms including subaerial and submarine landslides, volcanic eruptions and (extra‐terrestrial) bolide impacts. Different mechanisms generate tsunamis with different magnitudes, travel distances and impacts.

Typical Geological Hazard Chain in Coastal Areas: Progress and Prospects [PDF]
Coastal areas are rich in resources, economically developed, and densely populated. Affected by climate changes and human activities, regional geological disasters are prone to occur and are widely distributed, especially chain disasters triggered by the

The Impacts of Southwest Indian Ocean Tropical Cyclones on Transient Weather in Réunion
Tropical cyclones which make passage near Réunion can have significant impacts on transient weather relative to long‐term means on the island. In this paper, these impacts were determined by a topological analysis of non‐landfalling tropical cyclones. The relationship between storm intensity, distance, duration, and seasonality plays an equal role in ...
