Abstract. For a quantitative assessment of debris flow risk, it is essential to consider not only the hazardous process itself but also perform an analysis its consequences. This should include estimation expected monetary losses as product hazard with given magnitude and vulnerability elements exposed. A quantifiable integrated approach both becoming required practice in risk reduction management. study aims at developing physical curves for flows through use dynamic run-out model. Dynamic...

Abstract. Debris flow hazard modelling at medium (regional) scale has been subject of various studies in recent years. In this study, zonation was carried out, incorporating information about debris initiation probability (spatial and temporal), the delimitation potential runout areas. out area Consortium Mountain Municipalities Valtellina di Tirano (Central Alps, Italy). The complexity phenomenon, variability local conditioning factors, lacking data limited use process-based models for zone...

The turning of geo-hydrological processes into disasters can be facilitated by the lack awareness among people at risk. Accordingly, living in areas prone to floods or landslides with a general unpreparedness both terms self-protection behavior and long-term risk mitigation strategies, lead loss human lives significant damage. Engaging citizens disaster reduction is one main challenges enhance resilience communities. To this aim, various approaches are being developed including public...

Climate change challenges our communities to build resilience in the face of natural disasters that do not stop at frontiers. In this context, European RED ROSES project appear as an initiative cooperation between France and Italy cross border region strengthen prevention, monitoring response capabilities civil society actors addressing specific (floods, landslides wild fires) context climate crises. Multiple are involved on effort providing essential information collaboratively creating a...

Urban areas, increasingly exposed to climate change, demand innovative strategies for public engagement and adaptive behavior. This research investigates the drivers barriers influencing sustainable behaviors among young people in Chiavari, Italy, a climate-vulnerable city frequently impacted by extreme weather events such as floods wildfires. Utilizing Capability, Opportunity, Motivation-Behavior (COM-B) model, this study sheds light on personal, social, contextual factors shaping...

Currently, the best practice to support land planning calls for development of Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDI) capable integrating both geospatial datasets and time series information from multiple sources, e.g., multitemporal satellite data Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI). This paper describes an original OGC standard interoperable SDI architecture a metadata workflow creating managing multisource heterogeneous series, discusses it in framework Space4Agri project study case...

Abstract. The increasing availability of free-access satellite data represents a relevant opportunity for the analysis and assessment natural hazards. systematic acquisition spaceborne imagery allows monitoring areas prone to geohydrological disasters, providing information risk evaluation management. In cases major landslide events, example, radar can provide an effective solution detection slope failures, even in with persistent cloud cover. about extension location landslide-affected may...

Abstract. This study describes an analysis carried out within the European community project "ALARM" (Assessment of Landslide Risk and Mitigation in Mountain Areas, 2004) on landslide risk assessment municipality Corvara Badia, Italy. mountainous area, located central Dolomites (Italian Alps), poses a significant hazard to several man-made natural objects. Three parameters for determining were analysed as aid preparedness mitigation planning: event occurrence probability, elements at risk,...
