Thrilled to share our latest publication "Visualizing uncertainties in landslide susceptibility modelling using bivariate mapping" https://nhess.copernicus.org/articles/25/1425/2025/
What’s inside:
✅ A new way to jointly visualize susceptibility & uncertainty in landslide prediction
✅ Practical, open-source tools for implementation in R and QGIS
Loved the interdisciplinarity of this project

“#NaturalHazards and extreme weather events can not only cause devastating fatalities and immediate destruction, but they also have long-lasting financial impacts that disrupt development progress or reverse development gains.
In one of our latest comment pieces, a collective of authors discuss how closer coordination between science and practice is essential for developing effective insurance programmes that can address inequitable protection gaps: https://journalofcrr.com/comment/02-01-fisher-et-al/
A reminder that while PG&E is concerned about natural gas safety, that may not be enough :

Fired #climate scientist Tom Di Liberto says lives are at risk from #extremeweather as more cuts loom over the U.S. government agency responsible for #forecasting and much more. Di Liberto lost his job as part of a massive purge by the Trump administration, and worries the layoffs will not only cost the U.S. more money, but will cripple weather forecasting across the continent, leaving many people vulnerable to #NaturalHazards

Paper by Mitchell Anderson, which I contributed to, published about the concept "functional isolation", related to isolation (when you cannot access a facility) and cascading failures (when there are indirect loss of utilities).

@USGS
Dear colleagues,
We are in the final days for submitting abstracts to the #EGU25.
For those submitting, do consider the already "traditional" session on costs of #NaturalHazards. All types of costs, not just direct and tangible ones, are welcomed.
Greetings from all Co-Conveners. Hope to see you in Vienna!
So, back on the birdsite, I maintained a public list titled #GlobalAlerts. One of my favorite accounts from the birdsite, @ai6yr, graciously hosts and maintains a number of alert-bots here on Mastodon. If you miss having #NWS and #EmergencyAlerts, please consider creating your own list with these accounts... Suggestions welcome!

Congratulations to Dr. Fiona D'Arcy, who successfully defended her Ph.D. thesis, "Carbon isotopes as monitoring tools for active volcanic systems"(John Stix, supervisor). Fiona designed and flew gas sampling systems on UAVs into the gas plumes of Poás, Costa Rica and Stromboli, Italy.

To address global challenges such as #NaturalHazards and #ClimateChange we need open and transparent exchange of knowledge and ideas - which is why we operate as a #DiamondOpenAccess journal. Find out more here: https://journalofcrr.com/research/
