Gravity-induced pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) at Stromboli volcano were investigated by means numerical and empirical modelling. With the aim of testing the suitability of landslide numerical model DAN-3D and empirical models are... more
The course explains how to conduct a risk assessment using spatial information on hazards, elements at risk and vulnerability with the aid of GIS and remote sensing, and how this information can be used in risk management, with a focus on... more
Robustness and uncertainties of seismic damage estimates at urban scale: a methodological comparison on the example of the city of Oran (Algeria) Abstract The city of Oran is exposed to a significant seismic hazard, as almost all the... more
The interpretation of very high resolution seismic profiles and gravity core data acquired on the continental shelf of the Amalfi coast (Northern Salerno Bay) documents the stratigraphic architecture of a series of small fan-deltas that... more

For the first time we made our experimental STF (Short Term Forecast) for USA west coast, and Mexico (Primary focus on California). We used a similar condition that, in June 2015, lead us to succesfully forecast the Chile earthquake of 17... more
We compared the real sismic trend vs the forecasted earthquake pattern, and we published the results
The history of the medieval period in Britain is punctuated by catastrophic events, including wars, political unrest, disease, famine and ‘natural’ disasters. While archaeological evidence for warfare, epidemics and diet have seen... more
this is the old europa report, someone wanted to see it, but it was replaced by worldwide report, regional level.

Abstract. - Quantitative Evaluation Of Multi-Vulnerability To Hydro-Geomorfological Hazards In The High Sector Of Niraj Catchment. A study of the natural hazards indicates that floods, landslides, fluvial erosion and soil erosion have the... more
Increased frequency and intensity of heat waves is one of the consequences of climate change which affect the territory of France, including the territory of agglomeration community Plaine Commune. Composed of nine cities to the North of... more
Hazards don’t become disasters until they meet people who are vulnerable. Vulnerability should be the center of disaster response, recovery, and risk reduction. Disaster = Hazard + Vulnerability (Cannon, 2000). Although this short... more
As questões ambientais no Haiti têm tornado o país mais dependente e vulnerável aos eventos catastróficos, como no terremoto de 2010. Neste artigo, as raízes sociais e políticas que permitiram tal vulnerabilidade são examinadas e, com... more
The main aim of this paper is to perform a review of the methodological procedures for the modeling of socio-environmental vulnerability using geotechnologies and present case studies in selected areas in Brazil and Portugal. The study of... more
The extent of exposure to which a societal group is possible to fall into a critical condition or crisis is defined as the vulnerabilities embedded in the group. Vulnerability eradication is then characterized as having particularities in... more
Vulnerability is an emerging term for both scientific communities and practitioners. Vulnerabilities attributed to a particular community are then aggregated to state it as a vulnerable community. Vulnerability-related study is recognized... more
Aggregate Risk Analysis is a computationally intensive and a data intensive problem, thereby making the application of high-performance computing techniques interesting. In this paper, the design and implementation of a parallel Aggregate... more
Volcanic ashes from the Puna and surrounding Andean areas in northern Argentina show that sometimes volcanic ash deposits are very well preserved (up to several million years) and can remain a potential hazard for the environment in a... more
