On the basis of all the disasters we have reviewed, we can conclude that the catastrophes were induced mainly by human mistakes produced by poverty and by the lack of governmental policies on territorial planning of new urban zoning. Urban expansion was undertaken without taking into account the ...
Natural disasters are on the rise, driven by shifts in climatic patterns largely attributed to human-induced climate change. This relentless march of clima... F Dagnino,Z Qian,E Beatrici - 《Current Opinion in Urology》 被引量: 0发表: 2024年 Profiling sociodemographic attributes and extreme pre...

Overall, human-induced warming occurs faster in dry regions compared to wet regions, and the magnitude of the increase in PRCPTOT is also much larger in dry regions. Both faster warming and precipitation response rates lead to a greater PRCPTOT increase in dry regions than in wet regions40,...
It is relatively well accepted that climate change can affect human pathogenic diseases; however, the full extent of this risk remains poorly quantified. Here we carried out a systematic search for empirical examples about the impacts of ten climatic hazards sensitive to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissio...
(flying fox, genusPteropus) are the natural reservoir of Nipah virus. Nipah virus resulted in over 100 human fatalities in the Kinta district of northern peninsular Malaysia in 1998–1999. The cause of the outbreak is now attributed to a complex interaction of human-induced environmental changes....
Human induced vibration can affect structures in many ways: Causing bridges to sway.One of the most famous examples of resonance, human induced vibrations, and fluttering all impacting a structure occurred with the Millennium Bridge. As people walked across the bridge, the vibrations and swayin...
The U.S. TVPA (2000) assigned the term severe form of trafficking to “sex trafficking in which a commercial sex act is induced by force, fraud or coercion or in which the person induced to perform such act is under 18 years of age” (TVPA, 2000, Sec. 103(8)). Commercial sexual...
which could worsen the severity of displacement. Numerous studies have revealed that violent conflicts serve as stressors. Similarly, critical situations such as weather-induced disasters can exacerbate these stressors, creating a vicious cycle29,51,87,88,89. Consistently, all models associate a highe...
Beyond climate change, the planet faces several other environmental challenges that are at least as threatening, such as the loss of biodiversity. In each case, the problems are driven by similar factors, such as fossil fuels and intensive livestock farming. This paper presents a legal analysis ...
