This study assessed their knowledge, skills, and preparedness (KSP) for disaster management and examined the factors influencing their disaster KSP. Employing a cross-sectional design with a self-administered structure questionnaire containing the Disaster Preparedness Evaluation Tool (DPET), data were collected from 573 registered nurses in four metropolitan cities in Bangladesh. Results showed that RNs had moderate levels of knowledge (M = 4.00, SD = 0.76), skills (M = 4.27, SD = 0.75), and preparedness (M = 4.56, SD = 0.69) for disaster management. Statistically significant correlations existed between disaster preparedness and skills (<em>r</em> = 0.718) and between disaster knowledge and skills (<em>r</em> = 0.653). RNs whose curriculum has disaster management courses had statistically significantly higher disaster KSP than those who did not. Besides, RNs with BSc in Nursing (Post Basic) degrees had significantly higher disaster knowledge and skills than the RNs who completed four years of BSc in nursing degree. In addition, RNs working in the emergency unit had significantly higher disaster knowledge and skills than those without work experience in the emergency unit. Moreover, respondents who participated in disaster management training had significantly higher disaster skills than their counterparts. However, the senior RNs (≤ 40 years) had statistically significantly higher disaster preparedness than the young RNs (21–25 years). No significant association was found regarding RNs' gender, marital status, hospital types, and disaster experience with their disaster KSP. Along with disaster education, adequate disaster management training and drills are highly recommended to enhance RNs' disaster management capacity in Bangladesh.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":52341,"journal":{"name":"Progress in Disaster Science","volume":"22 ","pages":"Article 100324"},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2590061724000140/pdfft?md5=0127c92a7be6962eaffce4e7de2e080c&pid=1-s2.0-S2590061724000140-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140604377","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we assess how ecological factors are integrated into LSAs and the feasibility of measuring them, using open Earth Observation (EO) data. We conduct an exploratory review for identifying the factors used in LSAs and ecosystem assessments, determining their commonalities. Key findings indicate that standardization is more lacking in ecosystem assessments than in LSAs, with the former exhibiting a higher dispersion of factors—195 identified across 41 papers—compared to the latter, where only 46 factors were identified across 30 studies. LSAs and ecosystem assessments shared 19 common factors, with only two, the Normalized Differential Vegetation Index (NDVI) and Land Use and Land Cover (LULC), being widely accepted criteria. Our study contributes to advancing Eco-DRR practices by proposing concrete measures to expand the ecological perspective in LSAs and fostering collaboration between DRR and conservation domains. Ultimately, it raises awareness of the pivotal role that healthy ecosystems play in mitigating disasters and addressing societal challenges.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":52341,"journal":{"name":"Progress in Disaster Science","volume":"22 ","pages":"Article 100328"},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2590061724000188/pdfft?md5=4cd8c40b7998bdb7c8e882539551c2ea&pid=1-s2.0-S2590061724000188-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140880100","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Precipitation, as a main triggering factor of landslides, may be influenced by climate variability and climate change. Changes in precipitation may directly affect landslide frequency and recurrence intervals. Considering the influence of climate variability and climate change, the partial duration series method and critical rainfall threshold are combined with the simulated precipitation of Phase 6 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6) general circulation models (GCMs) to predict changes in future landslide recurrence intervals in Nakhon Si Thammarat Province, Thailand. The analytical results predicted changes in the landslide frequency over the next 20 years (2023 to 2042). SSP1–2.6 and SSP2–4.5 are adopted as future socioeconomic development scenarios. According to the predictions, the results showed that the return period of landslide occurrence in the future will be shorter than the return period of landslide occurrence in the historical period; moreover, the landslide recurrence interval will fluctuate greatly. The Nakhon Si Thammarat DWR meteorological station shows the most fluctuation in landslide recurrence intervals for SSP1–2.6. In addition, the Nakhon Si Thammarat meteorological Station experiences a significant decrease of approximately 35% in landslide recurrence intervals under SSP1–2.6. For SSP2–4.5, the Nakhon Si Thammarat meteorological station shows the most fluctuation in landslide return period. In addition, the Nakhon Si Thammarat meteorological station observed a decline in landslide recurrence intervals, with a reduction of approximately 40%. Hence, the frequency of landslides may increase in the future. A comparison between SSP1–2.6 and SSP2–4.5 revealed that SSP2–4.5 yielded lower landslide return periods.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":52341,"journal":{"name":"Progress in Disaster Science","volume":"22 ","pages":"Article 100330"},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2590061724000206/pdfft?md5=9405c179d69f84f6b82840704203407f&pid=1-s2.0-S2590061724000206-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140906582","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The SRCA methodology, offers a quasi-quantitative framework that goes beyond conventional risk assessment, enabling a deeper understanding of the dynamics and interdependencies inherent to seaport ecosystems. In the pursuit of demonstrating the practicality and versatility of the SRCA methodology, this study applies the model to two hypothetical ports, accompanied by the utilization of synthetic data. By doing so, it elucidates the step-by-step analysis facilitated by SRCA, highlighting its potential for enhancing the resilience of seaports to systemic risks. The results underscore the limitations of traditional risk assessment methodologies when confronted with the complexity of systemic risks in seaports, thereby emphasizing the significance of the proposed SRCA methodology.

Moreover, we quantitatively evaluate to what extent community-based theatre implemented by the Women's Union in Central Vietnam could contribute to public awareness and foster societal engagement. 10 theatre performances in five coastal communes were evaluated using pre- and post-performance surveys among 635 visitors, mainly women. We find that community-based theatre enhanced risk perceptions, perceived flood knowledge, self-efficacy, and the importance of social participation. No significant effect was found on intentions to engage in (collective) risk reducing behavior.

Using the case of Kesennuma in the prefecture of Miyagi, we examined how these socio-technical processes unfolded. We draw on case study methods, including interviews and focus groups with residents and leaders of <em>jichikai</em> – neighbourhood associations of relocated communities – to understand how infrastructure reconstruction impacted sense of place. We found that infrastructure was a foundation for people's connections that construct sense of place across three scales – the individual, community, and city. To rebuilt sense of place, physical infrastructure needed to consider people's routine, community ties, and city identity after a disaster and it was the role of infrastructure across these scales that determined how disrupted sense of place could be re-established or continue to be disrupted through reconstruction. This work ultimately contributes to understanding how infrastructure can enable recovery and reduce disaster risk by creating more vibrant places within communities.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":52341,"journal":{"name":"Progress in Disaster Science","volume":"22 ","pages":"Article 100322"},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2024-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2590061724000127/pdfft?md5=17b95ac0454e4ad1b73eef07db18d453&pid=1-s2.0-S2590061724000127-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140187864","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using a systematic review of the literature, the paper demonstrates that the COVID-19 lockdowns have caused significant psychological distress including depression, fear, anxiety, and increased levels of loneliness, and that these impacts are disproportionately higher in women than in men. Moreover, COVID-19 has created severe economic crises for female-headed households living in these informal settlements, by creating sudden unemployment, and by rapidly diminishing the livelihood sources required to support these households. The psychological distresses together with sudden economic downturns have led to a deterioration in gendered relations, creating estrangement within informal workers' families. Furthermore, the existing COVID-19 plans and policies of Bangladesh do not take into account these disproportionate and gendered impacts in the informal settlements. This paper argues that in order to protect these informal settlements against future pandemics in Bangladesh, it is critical to develop plans and policies which include gender and psychological considerations.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":52341,"journal":{"name":"Progress in Disaster Science","volume":"22 ","pages":"Article 100317"},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2024-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2590061724000073/pdfft?md5=c4415b530c73979b108b5239191cb9fa&pid=1-s2.0-S2590061724000073-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140067501","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
