Validating the Voice of the Crowd During Disasters
Since the late 1990 s, the intensity of tropical cyclones have increased over time, causing massive flooding and landslides in thePhilippines. Nationwide Operational Assessment of...
Evidence of Postseismic Deformation Signal of the 2007 M8.5 Bengkulu Earthquake and the 2012 M8.6 Indian Ocean Earthquake in Southern Sumatra, Indonesia, Based on GPS Data
GPS data in southern Sumatra, Indonesia, indicate crustal deformation associated to subduction zone and inland fault of Great Sumatran Fault (GSF). We analyze these deformation cha...
Assessing tsunami hazard using heterogeneous slip models in the Mentawai Islands, Indonesia
Tsunami hazard maps are generated for the coastline of the Mentawai Islands, West Sumatra, Indonesia, to support evacuation and disaster response planning. A random heterogeneous s...
West Sumatra Landslide During in 2012 to 2015
During year 2012 to 2015, there are number of landslide occurred in West Sumatra - Indonesia which have been recorded. Those disasters had taken lives and destroyed public faciliti...
3D modeling of the Buhi debris avalanche deposit of Iriga Volcano, Philippines by integrating shallow-seismic reflection and geological data
Numerical models for simulating volcanic debris avalanches commonly lack a critical initiation parameter, the source volume, which is difficult to estimate without data on the depo...
Improving the coastal record of tsunamis in the ESI-07 scale: Tsunami Environmental Effects Scale (TEE-16 scale)
This paper discusses possibilities to improve the Environmental Seismic Intensity Scale (ESI-07 scale), a scale based on the effects of earthquakes in the environment. This scale c...
An investigation of recent storm histories using ground penetrating radar at Bay-Bay spit, Bicol, Central Philippines
The Philippine archipelago lies in the path of seasonal tropical cyclones, and much of the coast is prone to periodic inundation due to storm surges. One example is typhoon Durian,...
3D modeling of the Buhi debris avalanche deposit of Iriga Volcano, Philippines by integrating shallow-seismic reflection and geological data
Numerical models for simulating volcanic debris avalanches commonly lack a critical initiation parameter, the source volume, which is difficult to estimate without data on the depo...
Recent flow regime and sedimentological evolution of a fluvial system as the main factors controlling spatial distribution of arsenic in groundwater (Red River, Vietnam).
We investigate a relationship between geological history, groundwater flow paths and the spatial distribution of arsenic in aquifers of the upper part of the Red River delta in Vie...
Connecting global- and local-scale flood risk assessment: a case study of the Rhine River basin flood hazard
This flood hazard study is the first step towards linking global and local scales of flood risk assessment under the International Flood Initiative (IFI) Flagship Project. To simul...
Approach for evaluating inundation risks in urban drainage systems
Urban inundation is a serious challenge that increasingly confronts the residents of many cities, as well as policymakers. Hence, inundation evaluation is becoming increasingly imp...
Short-term volcano-tectonic earthquake forecasts based on a MRT algorithm: the El Hierro seismo-volcanic crisis experience
Under certain conditions, volcano-tectonic (VT) earthquakes may pose signi?cant hazards to people living in or near active volcanic regions, especially on volcanic islands; however...
Improving predictions of the effects of extreme events, land use, and climate change on the hydrology of watersheds in the Philippines
Due to its location within the typhoon belt, the Philippines is vulnerable to tropical cyclones that can cause destructive ?oods. Climate change is likely to exacerbate these risks...
Mapping of bb-Value Anomalies Along the Strike-Slip Fault System on the Thailand–Myanmar Border: Implications for Upcoming Earthquakes
In order to determine the prospective areas of the forthcoming earthquake sources, the bb-values of the frequency-magnitude earthquake distributions were analyzed spatially and map...
