NIST Handbook 146, HAZARD I—Fire Hazard Assessment Method [1], represents the culmination of a long-term program aimed at placing the prediction of fire outcomes on an objective and scientific basis. In the 1970s, NIST supported Harvard University to develop numerical models that could predict the temperature in a room containing a fire. These early models were difficult to use and interpret; r...

The efficiency of three statistical models, AHP surface-weighted density bivariate (semi-quantitative models), stepwise multivariate regression and logistic multivariate regression models were compared in Chehel-Chai watershed in Golestan province, Iran. In current study the hazard map was prepared according to the top model of landslide hazard map. Chehel-Chai watershed is located as one of Go...

Soil erosion is one of the most serious environmental problems affecting the quality of soil, land, and water resources upon which humans depend for their sustenance. A soil erosion hazard map is highly useful for environmental planning, soil conservation and management in soil erosion prone areas. In order to assess the soil erosion hazard, remote sensing (RS) and geographical information syst...
