Abstract:
Disaster preparedness and disaster mitigation are the goals of nations throughout the world during the 1990's. The United States will lead this cooperative effort and marshall its national resources to reduce the disaster potential of earthquakes, floods, windstorms, landslides, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, and wildfires. These natural hazards cause annual losses of approximately $10 billion in the United States and many times that throughout the world. The type and severity of the hazard varies from State-to-State in the United States. All States are at risk from flooding from sources such a

Abstract:
The damage to human life, property, and infrastructure by natural disasters has been growing exponentially for the past 40 years. The driving force of this development is the increase in exposure and vulnerability of human society to the impacts of disasters. On the other hand, significant local, regional and global capacities for disaster reduction have been built since the beginning of the UN International Decade for Natural Disaster Reduction in 1990. It remains unclear how the race between mitigation efforts and expanding disaster potential will develop in the coming years. This is a repor

Abstract:
AbstractThe occurrence of catastrophes has increased considerably in recent decades. Climate change, urban pressure and lack of disaster preparedness are increasingly transforming natural hazards into disasters, causing multiple losses. In the last decades, Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) has captured significant attention as the main approach to reduce vulnerabilities and exposure and improve preparedness to protect regional, national and local development. One of the main international agreements adopted to strengthen and enhance society’s resilience is the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk R

AbstractUsing the Internet and wealth of data and knowledge available on the Web, so-called web observatories have been developed in the last decade—in very different fields of use. The article discusses the use of such observatories to support the implementation of sustainable development at different scales. The focus is on landslides as risk to society, and since they are related to water and soil, a web-based observatory on natural hazards, including landslides, can draw upon water- and soil-related observatories that are used worldwide as a sustainable development tool.

Abstract The Causeway Coast is located on the northern coast of Northern Ireland. A rugged coastline, it is a area of high tourism due to its natural beauty and an area of significance in Irish mythology. Two sites on the Causeway Coast were chosen to develop a geohazard citizen pilot observatory, the world-renowned Giants Causeway and Carrick-a-rede. Both sites attract a high number for visitors throughout the year and both are also managed by the National Trust. The Causeway Coast is geologically dominated by Paleogene mafic volcanics and is highly susceptible to frequent landslide occurrenc

In the face of an ever-evolving environment, a crucial challenge emerges concerning the dynamic interplay between the sea and the land.

These intricacies, along with several important technical considerations, underscore the imperative to safeguard coastal regions against the escalating impact of the sea.
