Transformative natural hazard risk education – An approach to link risk communication and sustainability education within the framework of current societal challenges
(2019)In the light of current global societal challenges, natural hazard risk governance requires both adaptive and transformative responses and education can play a key role in that. This contribution proposes to integrate ... -
Investigating the role of alpine forests as Eco-DRR against gravitational hazards: a socio-economic analysis
(2019)The implementation of effective Ecosystem-based solutions for Disaster risk Reduction (Eco-DRR) is still lacking in the current risk management strategies adopted at local level. This can be due to a general concern about ... -
Investigating the role of alpine forests as Eco-DRR against gravitational hazards: a socio-economic analysis
(2019)The Alps have experienced deep socio-economic transition changes in the last decades, as land-use changes, mass tourism and increasing limitations to settlement space. Moreover, several studies affirm that, as a consequence ... -
Natural hazard risk education within the framework of current societal challenges – A case study for South Tyrol
(2019)This poster presents a case study which exemplifies how Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) and natural hazard risk communication can be linked in practice. The study is conducted within the framework of my master ... -
UAV-based hyperspectral techniques for monitoring shallow erosion in alpine pastures
(2019)Shallow erosion processes often have negative impacts on mountain agriculture, natural hazards and landscape aesthetics. In the Alps, they are characterized by the displacement of vegetation together with unconsolidated ... -
Evaluation of statistical and machine learning based landslide susceptibility models for very large areas – coping with error prone input data
