Abstract:

The paper studies the effects of a one-sided minimum wage in a two-country model of intra-industry trade, in which multinational firms arise endogenously. With positive levels of intra-industry trade the adverse employment and welfare effects of an asymmetric minimum wage are significantly larger than in a non-trading economy. Multinational firms generally mitigate the effect somewhat. Even though factor prices are not equalized across countries, a (binding) wage floor in one country will prop up wages in the other. The flexible-wage country is insulated from shocks caused by factor accumulati

Abstract:

Today, due to the rapid development of large megacities in our country, they are actively being built up with multi-storey buildings. For example, in the capital, the construction of buildings with 20 floors or more is becoming the norm and continues to grow from year to year. Multi-storey buildings are of interest not only to architects, but also to engineers, because they are forced to solve problems that they have not encountered before when designing. This forces you to raise some questions and then find answers to them by implementing them into design practice.

Abstract Forest fire is a very common natural disaster or caused by humans that happens throughout the year in a humid country like Malaysia. Forest fire had caused many problems like haze and disruption of the environment. The peat-swamp areas are more susceptible to forest fire due to having a relatively spongy forest floor and covered with a thick and dense layer of humus. The objective of this research is to determine active fire hotspots at Raja Musa Forest Reserve, Kuala Selangor by using Landsat 8 infrared based images for forest fire mapping.

Abstract Due to ongoing military operations in the territories of our country, a critical issue has emerged regarding the protection of public buildings from damage caused by missiles, drones, and artillery shells. Safeguarding these buildings from such destructive forces is an extremely challenging task, and in many cases, it may seem nearly impossible. Nevertheless, while complete protection against these types of attacks may not be feasible, there are still methods available to mitigate the consequences of such impacts.

Abstract:

Abstract Being located on the Pacific Ring of Fire and a tectonically active country, Indonesia has to cope with the constant risk of volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, floods and landslides. Landslides and other mass movements are serious geo-environmental hazards in Indonesia. Following report from the Indonesia National Disaster Management Authority (BNPB), landslides are among high disaster death toll throughout the archipelago. It claimed 248 lives last year alone. The number of landslides in Indonesia increase steadily to 376 in 2014 from 291 in 2012. Hence, landslide monitoring system is

Abstract:

A range of hydrologic responses can be observed in steep, recently burned terrain, which makes predicting the spatial distribution of large debris flows challenging. Studies from rainfall-induced landslides in unburned areas show evidence of hydroclimatic tuning of landslide triggering, such that the spatial distribution of events is best predicted by the observed rainfall anomaly relative to climatic norms rather than by absolute rainfall. In this paper, we test whether the spatial distribution of debris flows in response to rainfall can be similarly predicted by rainfall anomaly. The 520 km2

Abstract:

In this study, nine different types of essential facilities in the state of Iowa (such as hospitals, fire stations, schools, etc.) were analyzed on a county level in terms of flood depth, functionality and restoration time after flooding, and damage sustained during flooding. These essential facilities were also analyzed on the state level in terms of their location relative to the 100 y and 500 y flood zones. Results show that the number of essential facilities within the flood extent reached up to 39%, and during the 100 y flood scenario all but one of the six chosen counties lost functional

Karter and Molis(2014), in their recent analysis of fire service injuries, noted that overall the number of injuries experienced by firefighters has been declining over the past 20 years. Yet, in 2013 there were still an estimated 65,880 injuries; 12,535 of these injuries occurred during non-fire emergencies. From 1981 to 2013, the number of non-fire injuries increased by 31 percent, largely due to nearly a tripling in the number of non-fire response calls received. Injury risks associated with patient-handling are compounded by the obesity epidemic in the US. About one-third of American adult

Climate change is likely to imperil native biodiversity through the increased frequency of extreme events. Here we address the short-term effects of an extreme flooding event on an unplowed prairie reserve, the Faville Prairie Wisconsin State Natural Area. This 25-ha property is a remnant of the formerly extensive Crawfish Prairie that lay on the east bank of the Crawfish River, Jefferson County, Wisconsin USA. The Faville remnant has historically been subject to late winter to spring flooding in its lower portions. In June of 2008, however, an extreme rainfall event caused flooding unpreceden

Abstract:

A well-preserved burial, discovered during peat clearing on Langwell Farm in Strath Oykel, Easter Ross, consisted of a stone cist that held the skeleton of a woman who had died in 2200–1960 cal bc. Although the cist contents were disturbed and partly removed before archaeological investigation took place, the burial rite can be interpreted to some extent. The woman, who died in her late 20s, had been wrapped in brown cattle hide, and wooden and woven objects were placed with her body. Periodic waterlogging created conditions that allowed the rare, partial preservation of the organic materials.

The country’s largest city, Istanbul, is located on the North Anatolian Fault and thus highly prone to earthquakes. It is estimated more than half of the population in the country are potentially seismically vulnerable. This vulnerability makes us ready for disasters.

More specifically, there are records that show that in the last 200 years the city of Cuenca has been exposed to earthquakes that have produced moderate to severe damage. These reasons make it possible to establish that the city of Cuenca and specifically its historic center could present important prob
