Offshore Earthquakes Do Not Influence Marine Mammal Stranding Risk on the Washington and Oregon Coasts
The causes of marine mammals stranding on coastal beaches are not well understood, but may relate to topography, currents, wind, water temperature, disease, toxic algal blooms, and anthropogenic activity. Offshore earthquakes are a source of intense sound and disturbance and could be a contributing factor to stranding probability. We tested the hypothesis that the probability of marine mammal s...
متن کاملComprehensive landslide risk management monitoring
Background and objective: Although the risk management and crisis management issues were discussed during recent years in scientific meetings, but still there is no proper planning to deal with natural disasters. The lack of systematic attitude to landslide phenomenon and also loss of predetermined plans for responsibility of the trusted organizations and lack of coordination between these orga...
متن کاملPredicting the susceptibility of landslide occurrence in order to manage landslide risk in Bar Neyshabur watershed
Background and objective: Landslide susceptibility zoning using different methods is one of the landslide management strategies. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the landslides susceptibility in the Bar watershed in Khorasan Razavi province using the support vector machine (SVM) algorithm. Method: First, the landslide layer of the area was corrected through field visits and Google Earth...
متن کاملForecasting earthquakes and earthquake risk
This paper reviews issues, models, and methodologies arising out of the problems of predicting earthquakes and forecasting earthquake risk. The emphasis is on statistical methods which attempt to quantify the probability of an earthquake occurring within specified time, space, and magnitude windows. One recurring theme is that such probabilities are best developed from models which specify a ti...
متن کاملLandslide risk assessment and management: an overview
Landslides can result in enormous casualties and huge economic losses in mountainous regions. In order to mitigate landslide hazard effectively, new methodologies are required to develop a better understanding of landslide hazard and to make rational decisions on the allocation of funds for management of landslide risk. Recent advances in risk analysis and risk assessment are beginning to provi...
