A multi-level framework for climate adaptation of critical infrastructure: flood risk in railway networks.
Infrastructure systems face increased flooding risks due to climate change, necessitating effective adaptation strategies. This paper proposes a four-level framework for evaluating adaptation options in railway systems, highlighting that no single solution is universally effective. Economic efficiency varies by location, emphasizing the need for tailored, multi-level approaches to reducing flood-related losses.

A new method to compile global multi-hazard event sets
This study introduces the MYRIAD-Hazard Event Sets Algorithm (MYRIAD-HESA), an open-access tool for creating multi-hazard event sets from historical data across diverse scales. It compiles a global database (2004-2017) of eleven hazards, addressing multi-hazard interactions and incorporating time-lags, enhancing disaster risk understanding and assessment capabilities.

A Synthetic European Weather Dataset Based on Spatiotemporal Vine Copulas
A stochastic weather generator, MYRIAD-SIM, captures and simulates realistic weather patterns for temperature, precipitation, and wind speed. By employing conditional vine copulas, it maintains statistical similarities to ERA5-Land data while allowing exploration of varied scenarios, aiding research in fields like agriculture and energy, particularly in compound climate events.

Application and platform for seismic vulnerability assessment of critical buildings (in greek)
Η εργασία προτείνει μεθοδολογία και εργαλεία για την εκτίμηση της σεισμικής τρωτότητας κρίσιμων κτιρίων, όπως σχολικά, συνδυάζοντας ταχύ οπτικό έλεγχο και λεπτομερή εκτίμηση. Το σύστημα "RiskSchools" επιτρέπει τη ιεράρχηση προτεραιοτήτων για ενίσχυση κτιρίων, μειώνοντας τον σεισμικό κίνδυνο, με πιλοτική εφαρμογή στην Κεντρική Μακεδονία.
