Aim Natural disaster risk reduction (DRR) is becoming a more important function of protected area (PAs) for current and future global warming. However, biodiversity conservation DRR have been handled separately their interrelationship has not explicitly addressed. This mainly because, due prevailing strategies criteria PA placement, large proportion PAs are currently located far from human-occu...

The Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015–2030 (SFDRR) highlights the importance of scientific research, supporting ‘availability and application science technology to decision making’ in disaster risk reduction (DRR). Science can play a crucial role world's ability reduce casualties, physical damage, interruption critical infrastructure due natural hazards their complex interaction...

ObjectivesThe Criminal Justice Act (2003) introduced Alcohol Treatment Requirements (ATR) and Drug Rehabilitation (DRR). The study’s objective was to better understand the pathways between ATRs/DRRs specialist addiction treatment services.
 MethodsThe Ministry of Justice's Splink software used probabilistically link individuals present in MoJ's nDelius probation data with those structured ...

Abstract People with visual impairments (PwVI) represent a heterogeneous social group who often experience significant disabling barriers in exercising their rights throughout life course. Understanding dimensions of vulnerability PwVI to disasters and climate change is an important issue reduce the culture neglected disasters. To date, few studies have analyzed impairment disaster risk reducti...

An assessment of climate impacts in the hydrologic system Blue Nile basin is useful for enhancing water management planning and basin-wide policymaking. Climate change adaptation activities predominantly require an understanding range on resource. In this study, we assessed River using 30-year situ data (1981–2010) five bias-corrected General Circulation Models (GCMs) future (2026–2045) project...

509 Abstract—Algorithms used for scheduling play a major role in providing quality of service in video streaming. This paper describes a simulation environment that has been designed combining network simulator ns2 with video codec to predict the quality of service. Virtual clock scheduling algorithm has been applied to evaluate the performance metrics and compared with the weighted round robin...

In Thailand, 9% of people with disabilities are visually impaired (VI). VI children vulnerable when disasters occur. This study investigates risk situations and disaster reduction (DRR) methods in schools to identify present potential ways that students can be provided skills. An interview was administered two schoolteachers administrators. Content analysis used analyze qualitative data based o...

Fair bandwidth allocation is an important mechanism for traffic management in the Internet. Round robin schedulers, such as Deficit Round Robin (DRR), are well-suited for implementing fair queueing in multi-Gbps routers, as they schedule packets in constant time regardless of the total number of active flows. The main drawback of these schemes, however, lies in the maintenance of per flow queue...

The UN Sendai Framework recognized the need for making our communities safer and more resilient to disasters by shifting policy goals from “managing disasters” disaster risk reduction (DRR) building resilience. For DRR community resilience shocks, this study posits that social learning, a process of mutual development sharing knowledge through iterative reflections on experience, is key changin...
