Global trends in tropical cyclone risk
Pascal Peduzzi,Pascal Peduzzi,Bruno Chatenoux,Bruno Chatenoux,Hy Dao,Hy Dao,A. De Bono,A. De Bono,Christian Herold,Christian Herold,James P. Kossin,Frédéric Mouton,O. Nordbeck +12 more
TL;DR: This article showed that, despite projected reductions in tropical cyclone frequency, projected increases in demographic pressure and tropical cyclones intensity can be expected to exacerbate disaster risk, even with reported losses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessing global exposure and vulnerability towards natural hazards: the Disaster Risk Index
TL;DR: In this paper, a model of factors influencing levels of human losses from natural hazards at the global scale, for the period 1980-2000, was presented for the United Nations Development Programme as a building stone of the disaster risk index (DRI), which aims at monitoring the evolution of risk.
Journal ArticleDOI
Building an Earth Observations Data Cube: lessons learned from the Swiss Data Cube (SDC) on generating Analysis Ready Data (ARD)
Gregory Giuliani,Bruno Chatenoux,Andréa De Bono,Denisa Rodila,Jean-Philippe Richard,Karin Allenbach,Hy Dao,Pascal Peduzzi +7 more
TL;DR: This paper presents an approach to enable rapid data access and pre-processing to generate ARD using interoperable services chains and has been tested and validated generating Landsat ARD while building the Swiss Data Cube.
BookDOI
Forest cover changes in Côte d’Ivoire and Upper Guinea
TL;DR: In this article, the changes in forest cover in Cote d'Ivoire from 1990 to 2000 based on satellite images were investigated at four scales of resolution, namely, the total forest area in West Africa, in particular the total protected area, was analyzed, and forest fragmentation in detail for 8 blocks of 20×20 km in Abidjan.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tsunami hazard and exposure on the global scale
Finn Løvholt,Sylfest Glimsdal,Carl B. Harbitz,Natalia Zamora,Farrokh Nadim,Pascal Peduzzi,Hy Dao,Hy Dao,Helge Smebye +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a global tsunami hazard and population exposure study based on plane wave linear hydrostatic transect simulations, and validation against results from a standard run-up model is given.
