This paper proposes an AI-driven framework for smart campus microgrids that integrates an enhanced multi-scale gated temporal attention network (MS-GTAN+) for meteorological hazard prediction, a multi-intelligence co-optimization algorithm …

Yeliz Teker, Ridvan Bilgin, Ayşe Yildiz

This paper examines the 2023 Türkiye-Syria earthquakes, focusing on building vulnerabilities, winter preparedness, coordination in the first 72 hours, and international disaster risk frameworks. It argues for improved risk governance, inter…

This paper systematically reviews the progress of decision-oriented natural carrying capacity (NCC) research in China. Initially focused on single-factor assessments of land and water, it evolved into a comprehensive evaluation system integ…

Keisuke Kokubun

Using a panel of 108 countries, this study finds that natural disaster impacts on economic growth depend on infrastructure development measured by electricity access. In low-infrastructure regimes, disaster intensity shows short-run growth …

Shuyi Song, Chatchai Khiewngamdee, Chonrada Nunti

This paper empirically examines how natural disasters affect fiscal sustainability in emerging and developing economies using panel data from 2001–2025. Results show that disasters increase public debt, especially in high-debt countries, hi…

This study evaluates the carbon stock and sequestration potential of high-density plantations using the Miyawaki method in Tamil Nadu, India. Among 50 species, Albizzia lebbeck showed the highest CO2 equivalent. The plantation also improved…

Vahit Çalışır

This study quantifies CO2 emission changes from the February 2023 Kahramanmaraş earthquakes using AIS port visit data and GNN modeling. It finds a 35.9% increase in per-visit CO2 during the acute disruption phase, with 27,574 tonnes of exce…

Jianghui He, Min Cao

This policy review provides a comprehensive overview of global blue carbon governance under the United Nations system, examining interfaces with UNFCCC, CBD, Ramsar Convention, SDGs, and Sendai Framework. It identifies four structural bottl…

A. Khosravi Mashizi

This paper examines how ecosystem services contribute to disaster risk reduction under climate change and wildfire threats. While specific findings are unclear, it suggests the importance of ecosystem-based adaptation measures.

Choy Yee Keong, Lizan E. Perante-Calina, Ramces Dili

This study diagnoses the marginal integration of nature-based solutions (NbS) in the Philippines' climate disaster risk reduction as a systems failure. Using systems thinking and causal loop modeling, it demonstrates that a hybrid NbS-grey …

Z. Khashei, Sandeep Langar

This paper systematically reviews 30 peer-reviewed articles on integrating circular economy (CE) into post-disaster rebuilding. It identifies two key domains—disaster waste management and shelter design—where CE strategies offer high levera…

Bekele Tona Amenu, Getahun Shanko Mamo, Endale Difabachew

This study evaluates the contribution of forest ecosystems to carbon sequestration, microclimate regulation, and disaster risk reduction in Ethiopia. It finds intact forests store higher carbon and reduce temperatures by up to 7.2°C, while …

K. Papatheodosiou, Ioannis Georgakopoulos, Stamatios Ntanos +3

Natural disasters threaten sustainable development. This paper proposes an integrated disaster management system using Internet Radio technology. A 6-month case study in the Dodecanese Islands, Greece, achieved temperature prediction RMSE o…

Li-Hsien Chen, S. S. Kolhe, Jie-Dong Hu +2

This study developed a forest fire monitoring and management system using IoT technology with four layers: sensing, transmission, application, and power supply. It achieves 84.4% average precision in fire detection and 0.45% error in infrar…

M. Jiménez-Martínez, Maribel Jiménez-Martínez

This paper analyzes the long-term effects of environmental hazards on household spending in Mexico, differentiating by disaster type and severity. It provides empirical evidence for climate adaptation strategies.

Anna Starczyk-Kołbyk, W. Łasica, Emil Kardaszuk +1

This study developed an eco-friendly rapid-setting concrete using CEM V cement and waste glass/silicate additives for post-disaster reconstruction. The M1 mixture with 5 vol.% glass aggregate achieved 28-day compressive strength of 95.1 MPa…
