The assessment of risk posed by climate change in coastal cities encompasses multiple climate-related hazards. Sea-level rise, flooding and erosion are important hazards, but they not the only ones. varying availability quality data across hinders ability to conduct holistic standardized multi-hazard assessments. Indeed, there far fewer studies on hazards than single Also, comparability existing methodologies becomes challenging, making it difficult establish a cohesive understanding overall vulnerability resilience cities. use indicators allows for systematic evaluation baseline different methodology developed this work establishes framework assess wide variety diverse cities, including sea-level flooding, erosion, heavy rainfall, land droughts, extreme temperatures, heatwaves, cold spells, strong winds landslides. Indicators produced results compared mapped ten European meticulously designed be applicable geographical contexts Europe. In manner, proposed approach interventions prioritized based severity urgency specific risks faced each city.

Abstract In late 2000, the European Union adopted Water Framework Directive (WFD) and funded a series of research innovation projects to support its implementation. One these was MULINO project (MULti-sectoral, INtegrated Operational Decision Support System for Sustainable Use Resources at Catchment Scale). Its main product decision system (mDSS) tool designed help water managers make choices related WFD implementation in participatory manner. After end MULINO, long sequence allowed maintenance continuous development tool, which has been applied more than 20 years various contexts environmental integrated management. This experience an analysis literature allow us draw some general conclusions regarding DSS tools management their role our societies. Lessons learned are proposed, from need frame within sound methodological frameworks processes, supporting instead substituting decision-makers roles, trade-offs that appear between ease use specificity on one side flexibility reusability other. The specific strengths attributed mDSS include provision interface based simplified understandable conceptual framework facilitates communication with interested parties, ability approach wide variety decisional issues, relatively simple rules provided by connections other software environments. paper presents current version reports over two decades; it also identifies way forward.

Urban soils are vital components of urban ecosystems, significantly influenced by anthropogenic activities and environmental factors. Despite misconceptions about their quality, play a pivotal role in carbon (C) cycling storage, impacting global emissions sequestration. However, challenges such as soil contamination, land use changes, expansion pose significant threats to quality C storage capacity. Over the last two decades, there has been an increasing interest potential part climate change mitigation strategies. In this review, bibliometric analysis covering twenty years (2004-2024) was performed offer insights into research trends, mainly Mediterranean region. This paper also identifies gaps proposes essential solutions for mitigating negative impacts urbanization on biodiversity functions. Key modulators, including plants, microbes, features, highlighted dynamics, emphasizing importance effective vegetation management enhance sequestration ecosystem services. Strategies reintroducing nature areas applying organic amendments promising improving microbial diversity. Further awareness maximize effectiveness these strategies, ensuring sustainable resilience.

Flooding in urban areas is expected to become even more common due climatic changes, putting pressure on cities implement effective response measures. Practical mechanisms for assessing flood risk have highly desired, but existing solutions been devoted evaluating only specific and consider limited perspectives, constraining their general applicability. This article presents an innovative approach the of delimited by exploiting geospatial information from publicly available databases, providing a method that applicable any city world requiring minimum configurations. A set mathematical equations defined numerically levels based elevation, slope, proximity rivers, while existence emergency-related infrastructure considered as reduction factor. Then, computed are used classify areas, allowing easy visualisation city. smart not serves valuable tool different parameters also facilitates implementation cutting-edge strategies effectively mitigate critical situations, ultimately enhancing resilience flood-related disaster.

Climate variability and extremes negatively impact on agricultural productivity production in arid semi-arid areas of Ethiopia. This study evaluated changes climate extreme indices the Borana Zone. Data daily rainfall, maximum minimum temperature from 1993 to 2022 were acquired National Meteorological Institute Ethiopia Hazards Group InfraRed Precipitation with Station data (CHIRPS). R-package for (RClimDex), Xlstat 2019, OriginPro, ArcGIS software used as analysis tools determine indices, trends, drought anomalies area. Spatial temporal variations temperature, vegetation zone analyzed using Google Earth Engine (GEE). The results revealed a decrease frequency consecutive wet days (CWD), 1-day precipitation amount (Rx1days), 5-day (Rx5days), very (R95p) Dire, Guchi, Wachele, Moyale districts zone. Annual monthly total (PRCPTOT) also decreased Dhaso, Dilo, Dubluk, Moyale, Tatlate over years. Warm spell duration index (WSDI), or annual (TNx), warm nights (TN90p), (TX90p) showed an increase However, standardized R10, R20, R95p, R99p indicated moderate across studied Vegetation Condition Index (VCI) higher severity spatial distribution Dilo Yabelo, whereas Temperature (TCI) detected Dubluk Yabelo stress due moisture thermal stress. Moisture-stress thermal-stress play role formation, whereas, is determined by availability, which dependent rainfall. We demonstrate that area experienced severe frequent years, multiple satellite-based are necessary better early warning assessment Further studies consider socioeconomic aspects farmers understand impacts smallholder farmers, devise location-specific adaptation strategies.
