Below, when discussion turns to the use of vulnerability as a qualitative tool for community assessment, as opposed to measurement, it should be obvious that such objections are narrowly conceived from the point of view of measurement. One can test a model by whether it guides researc...

Since vulnerability assessment is understood as a tool and a pre-condition for effective risk assessment, we concentrated our efforts exclu- sively in this topic. Vulnerability comprises many aspects arising from various physi- cal, social, economic and environmental factors: in this paper we focus...
For these purposes, we used QGIS software [36] and R packages RStoolbox, sf and raster [37,38,39]. Data analysis Global spatial analyses We used random labeling to test the null hypothesis of random occurrence of marks (i.e. domestic infestation status, surrounding NDVI and sociodemographic...
Two important facets have been overlooked in the assessment of road network vulnerability. The first pertains to the type of evacuation, which could result in very different threat levels [9]. Hazards can be broadly categorized as short-notice and no-notice depending on the period of time allowe...
