Multidimensional evaluation of seismic emergency capabilities in Chinese cities: the case of Changchun.
Sci Rep
December 2024
College of Jilin Emergency Management, Changchun Institute of Technology, Changchun, 130012, China.
In the context of rapid urbanization, the proliferation of high-density residential zones and intricate infrastructure networks markedly amplifies a city's susceptibility to natural calamities, notably seismic events. Thus, a precise evaluation of a city's emergency capability for seismic events is imperative. This research proposes a novel and all-encompassing evaluation framework for indicators, grounded in crisis management theory, covering the entire spectrum of disaster mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery.

A precise streamflow forecast is crucial in hydrology for flood alerts, water quantity and quality management, and disaster preparedness. Machine learning (ML) techniques are commonly employed for hydrological prediction; however, they still face certain drawbacks, such as the need to optimize the appropriate predictors, the ability of the models to generalize across different time horizons, and the analysis of high-dimensional time series. This research aims to address these specific drawbacks by developing a novel framework for streamflow forecasting.

Introduction: Emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases continue to pose a severe threat to public health in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) and globally. Community-related interventions, such as community e-Health literacy, can contribute to the preparedness to respond effectively to emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases. This study investigated the relationship between e-Health literacy and SSA countries' perceptions of the importance of readiness for potential pandemics.

Under the conditions of a full-scale russian invasion of Ukraine, the danger of the development of radiation and nuclear emergency situations in the region has increased significantly. An external independent assessment of the ability of health care system of the Republic of Moldova to respond to emergency situations revealed the need to develop a training program for medical workers on the basics of responding to radiation and nuclear threats. In addition, the evaluation recommended the development of a standard for victims care taking into account the existing evidence base.
