I am pleased to announce, along with my co-editors Graziella Devoli and Minu Treesa Abraham, the launch of a new collection on the Discover Applied Sciences journal (Springer Nature) entitled “Earth and Environmental Sciences: Operational Landslide Early Warning Systems–from Research to Best Practices”.
https://link.springer.com/collections/cbhaibfece
We welcome contributions from anyone involved in defining, designing, and managing Landslide Early Warning Systems, at any scale: from local to global.
We look forward to seeing you!
“This collection focuses on the primarily pre-operational, operational and practical aspects related to the design and management of a Landslide Early Warning System and Service (LEWS-S), at local, regional/national, and global scales. We aim to collect contributions not only from the research community engaged on this topic, but also from practitioners responsible for the organisational tasks that must be addressed in daily operations to run an effective and efficient landslide early warning system, to communicate warnings effectively, and to manage the ensuing liability (including legal) implications. Contributions addressing the definition and implementation of early warning systems/services (from research to the development of operational tools), as well as studies on the validation of such systems—particularly in the context of a changing environment driven by global warming—are also welcome.”
