Exploring the Role of Strategic Place‐Based Risk Assessment as a Framework to Support System‐Based Climate Adaptation Planning

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Climate change adaptation requires more place‐based evidence to understand the context of historic, present and future vulnerability and how this translates to local patterns of risk. This study illustrates a globally relevant framework focused on multiple and often interconnected climate risks in a major coastal lowland, the Fens region, UK ...

Regional Flood Emergency Capacity Assessment Based on a Multidimensional Framework

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Knowing the status of emergency capacity for disaster risk reduction helps the government and stakeholders to minimize vulnerabilities and disaster risk. However, there is no widely applied methodology for emergency capacity assessment. This study develops a multidimensional framework integrating vulnerability, susceptibility, and adaptability
