Early warning systems (EWSs) are extensive that integrate different components of disaster risk reduction for the provision timely warnings to minimize loss life and reduce economic social impact on vulnerable populations. Historically, empirical research has focused individual or sub-systems EWSs, such as hazard monitoring, assessment, forecasting tools dissemination. However, analyses natural disasters indicate that, in most cases, processes link EWS fail, rather than themselves. This...
Abstract Bringing together global efforts to enhance the implementation of warnings in managing vulnerabilities, hazards, risks, and disasters is essential saving lives for long-term vulnerability reduction. Ten years into Sendai Framework Disaster Risk Reduction 2015–2030 (SFDRR), there has been a renewed focus on following 2022 announcement by United Nations Secretary-General five-year goal Early Warnings All. Delivering Target G SFDRR subsequently generated significant outcomes, however...
Abstract Sixteen years have passed since the last global volcanic event and more than 25 a catastrophe that killed tens of thousands. In this time, volcanology has seen major advances in understanding, modelling predicting hazards and, recently, an interest techniques for reducing mitigating risk. This paper provides synthesis literature relating to aspect, specifically communication risk, with view highlighting areas future research into encouraging risk-reducing behaviour. Evidence...
Abstract Geology firmly underpins Anthropocene debate, and in particular an Earth Systems Science (ESS) rendering of how lithic yet‐to‐be‐lithified (or ‘drift’) material, including the tangible evidence a state‐sponsored carbon capitalism, is reconstituted by anthropogenically ‘forced’ physical processes. The prevalence this approach hinges large part on authority afforded as science that names, classifies explains these materials their spatio‐temporalities (such stratigraphies undergird...
A volcano alert level system (VALS) is used to communicate warning information from scientists civil authorities managing volcanic hazards. This paper provides the first evaluation of how decision-making process behind assignation an level, using forecasts behaviour, operates in practice. Using interviews conducted 2007 2009 at five USGS-managed (US Geological Survey) observatories (Alaska, Cascades, Hawaii, Long Valley, and Yellowstone), two key findings are presented here. First, that...
Over the last four decades, volcano observatories have adopted a number of different communication strategies for dissemination information on changes in volcanic behaviour and potential hazards to wide range user groups. These commonly include standardised alert level system (VALS), used conjunction with other uni-valent techniques (such as statements, reports maps) multi-directional meetings telephone calls). This research, based interviews observation conducted 2007-2009 at five US...
Abstract Typically, interviews are transcribed to enable coding and analysis of the data establish research findings. However, where discourse is not central, this article argues that mind mapping a valuable tool identify relationships differences across large datasets. This particularly useful for large‐scale projects may also be interdisciplinary and/or multi‐sited ability transcribe analyse audio‐recordings often time‐intensive process researcher costly if outsourced. Additionally, there...

<title>Abstract</title> As our climate undergoes significant shifts, both the Earth and human societies are increasingly exposed to disasters stress. This situation underscores critical need for robust Early Warning Systems (EWS), which intricately designed monitor, assess, relay information about impending risks hazards. EWS vital in promoting resilient sustainable development, yet they encounter substantial challenges forecasting hazards impacts, communicating risks, efficiency of...
How is memory embodied, narrated, interrupted, and reworked? Here, we take a postphenomenological approach to work that attentive how site-based affects prompt ossify, but also transmogrify, of place. With reference an intensely traumatized, domesticated entropied, environment—the island Hashima, off the coast from Nagasaki City in Japan—we demonstrate relevance explanatory reach culturally specific accounts memory, time, place; attentiveness cultural context making meaning helps mark out...
In 2010, southern Iceland's Eyjafjallajökull volcano erupted, releasing ash that spread across Europe. Due to its potential damage aircraft, much of European airspace was closed for six days. Known problems were brought the forefront regarding anticipation and response systemic risks. To contribute a deeper understanding this situation, paper explores disaster through fundamental causes cascading impacts, highlighting perspectives from risk reduction, complexity sciences, health in order...
