How Does Network Media Affect the Efficiency of Emergency Response During Natural Disaster Process?

Disaster Med Public Health Prep

November 2024

College of Landscape Architecture, Zhejiang A&F University, Hangzhou311300, China.

Article Synopsis
  • - This paper analyzes how network media impacts emergency response effectiveness during natural disasters, highlighting the importance of efficient response mechanisms in urban settings.
  • - Using the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) model, the study evaluates the efficiency of responses to three specific disasters: the 2021 Zhengzhou heavy rainstorm, the 2022 Super Typhoon Chaba, and the 2022 Luding earthquake.
  • - The results show varying levels of response efficiency, with the Zhengzhou rainstorm response being the most effective, while also discussing key factors like government decisions and rescue operations that influence this efficiency and suggesting strategies for improvement.

Article Synopsis
  • Land loss in estuarine areas has worsened recently due to decreased sediment transport from the Yangtze River, especially between 2009 and 2022.
  • This study investigates how changes in erosion and deposition conditions at the Yangtze River Estuary impact the concentration of suspended sediment, aiming to inform better management strategies.
  • Findings reveal that the estuary has shifted from deposition to net erosion for the first time since 1958, with significant erosion rates and variability in suspended sediment concentration linked to human activities and environmental factors.

Associations of exposure to phthalate with serum uric acid and hyperuricemia risk, and the mediating role of systemic immune inflammation.

Ecotoxicol Environ Saf

November 2024

Department of Environmental Health, School of Public Health, Fudan University, Shanghai, China; Shanghai Typhoon Institute/CMA, Shanghai Key Laboratory of Meteorology and Health, Shanghai, China; IRDR International Center of Excellence on Risk Interconnectivity and Governance on Weather/Climate Extremes Impact and Public Health, Fudan University, Shanghai, China. Electronic address:

Background: Previous studies found that urinary phthalates (PAEs) metabolites may be associated with increased serum uric acid concentration and hyperuricemia risk. However, no population-based study has investigated the underlying biological mechanisms.

Methods: This nationwide cross-sectional study analyzed the data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2003-2018.

Do typhoon storm surges affect bank performance in coastal regions? Empirical evidence from China.

Mar Pollut Bull

December 2024

School of Economics, Ocean University of China, Qingdao 266100, Shandong, China. Electronic address:

Typhoon storm surges cause significant damage to economic activities and have a huge impact on the financial sector. Using panel data of 170 local commercial banks in China's coastal regions from 2008 to 2022, this study explores the impact of typhoon storm surges on bank performance. The study finds that typhoon storm surges significantly reduce bank performance, with a greater impact on banks in the southern and eastern marine economic circles, as well as those primarily serving rural and "Tam Nong" economies.

Recurrent landslide events triggered by typhoons and tropical storms over Vietnam pose a longstanding threat to the nation's population and infrastructure. Changes in hydroclimatic conditions, especially the growing intensity and frequency of storms, have elevated landslide susceptibility in many parts of the country. This research examines the spatio-temporal variations in landslide susceptibility across central Vietnam over several years, using multi-temporal landslide inventories from Typhoon Ketsana (2009), Tropical Storm Podul (2013), and Typhoon Molave (2020).
