Reducing the volcanic risk in the frame of the hazard/risk separation principle

, 2021
Reducing the impact of volcanic eruptions on society is a major challenge of volcanology. Although science is one basic component of risk reduction, the achievement of this goal requires competencies that go beyond natural sciences.

Identifying gene expression signatures for risk stratification of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy in colorectal cancer

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
A novel signature integrating genome‐wide analysis with clinical factors predicts recurrence in stage II colorectal cancer and enables a new risk stratification to guide postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. Clinical risk stratification for postoperative recurrence in patients with pathological stage II (pStage II) colorectal cancer (CRC) is essential ...

A modelling approach for quantifying volcanic sulphur dioxide concentrations at flight altitudes and the potential hazard to aircraft occupants

Journal of Applied Volcanology
Volcanic eruptions can emit large quantities of sulphur dioxide (SO2) into the atmosphere, which can be harmful to people and the environment. Aircraft encounters with a volcanic SO2 cloud could represent a health hazard to crew and passengers onboard ...

Early‐life high‐fat diet exposure increases Achilles tendon stiffness and induces transcriptomic alterations

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Early‐life exposure to a high‐fat diet altered intact Achilles tendons in rat offspring, making them thinner, stiffer, and molecularly distinct even without injury. These findings suggest that developmental high‐fat diet exposure may impair tendon quality and increase susceptibility to mechanical overload or tendon injury later in life.

Rockfall Hazard Assessment in Volcanic Regions Based on ISVS and IRVS Geomechanical Indices

Geosciences, 2020
In volcanic regions, rockfalls represent a major hazard strongly conditioned by the geomechanical behaviour of volcanic materials, the geomorphological characteristics of the relief and the climatic conditions.

Ultrasmall High‐Entropy Materials: Nanoscale Effects, Synthesis, and Mechanistic Insights

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review article focuses on sub‐10 nm high‐entropy materials that combine nanoscale design with complex compositions for next‐generation applications. ABSTRACT Ultrasmall high‐entropy nanomaterials (USHENMs, <10 nm) merge multicomponent chemistry with size‐dependent effects, forming a distinct class of materials with unprecedented properties.

Assessing probabilistic hazard and risk for building, road network, and ecosystems: the case study of La Florida municipality, Galeras Volcano, Colombia

Frontiers in Earth Science
Volcanic activity can cause severe damage to buildings, transport networks, ecosystems, and critical infrastructure, making quantitative approaches that integrate hazard, exposure, and vulnerability essential for informed decision-making.

Hazard Mitigation of Unstable Volcanic Edifices [PDF]

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2010
Because of their continuous and relatively rapid growth, volcanoes are inherently unstable, with instabilities ranging from slow volcano spreading to sudden flank collapse. Instability may induce magma ascent and eruption, mainly through dikes, to such an extent that it may significantly control the evolution of volcanic edifices and their associated ...

Adaptable Covalent Organic Framework‐Hydrogel Microneedles for Glucose‐Responsive Isoliquiritigenin Delivery in Diabetic Wound Therapy

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
We develop a covalent organic framework‐loaded Traditional Chinese Medicine monomer nanodrug delivery system (ISL@bCOF) via boron‐oxygen bonds, a smart response to glucose for delivering AI‐driven isoliquiritigenin (ISL) targeting ZBP1. This dynamic release mechanism, combined with transdermal delivery technology via potent microneedles, can modulate ...

Satellite imagery for volcanic hazards mitigation [PDF]

IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2003
As world population and urbanization increase, volcanoes pose an ever greater hazard to life, property, and infrastructure in volcanically active regions. The rise in air traffic world-wide increases the risk of encounters between airborne ash and aircraft, even at great distances from the source.
