Italy

This seismic risk profile of Italy, produced by the Global Earthquake Model (GEM) Foundation summarizes key metrics of seismic risk, allowing stakeholders in risk management to get an overview of the risk in the country.

This paper explores how claims for transformative adaptation toward more equitable and sustainable societies can be assessed, using a theoretical framework describing transformative adaptation across four elements of the public-sector adaptation lifecycle

In this paper seismic events are simulated using a modified Olami–Feder–Christensen (OFC) model, within the framework of self-organized criticality.

The results from this case study demonstrate a significant improvement of the volcanic ash simulation when using Aeolus-assimilated meteorological fields, with differences in wind speed reaching up to 8 m/s when compared to the control run.

This study aims to explore the specific quality of mental health risks for cultural heritage first aiders, analyzing the emotional impact of the sight of cultural heritage ruins on a sample of cultural heritage first aiders.

The objective of this study is to provide an empirical example of a flexible and replicable methodology to estimate the micro-scale Urban Heat Island (UHI) risks within an urban context which takes into account all the relevant elements.

In this paper, the Italian young people's awareness, perception and preparation about natural risks, mainly landslide and flood risk, as well as climate change are investigated.

This work aims at developing a GIS-based FDICH that (i) weights exposure based on the level of listing, (ii) weights vulnerability based on ad-hoc taxonomy, (iii) provides a damage density per unit surface instead than a point classification.
