Mission
Science of the Total Environment is an international multi-disciplinary journal for publication of novel, hypothesis-driven and high-impact research on the total environment, which interfaces the atmosphere, lithosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, and anthroposphere.
The organization has no registered commitments.
allows stakeholders to inform the public about their work on DRR. The SFVC online platform is a useful toolto know who is doing what and where for the implementation of the Sendai Framework, which could foster potential collaboration among stakeholders. All stakeholders (private sector, civil society organizations, academia, media, local governments, etc.) working on DRR can submit their commitments and report on their progress and deliverables.

This study estimates risks associated with extreme weather events for the Veneto coastal municipalities in Italy under current and future scenarios.
In this study, a general framework for assessing historical and projected heat-related health costs is presented and then applied to the province of Quebec (Canada).
This paper uses meta-analysis to systematically assess the effects of Nature-based Solutions (NbS), providing urban planners and decision-makers with robust justification for their use in climate adaptation, resilience, and liveability.
This study presents an approach for identifying multi-hazard events during the past 123 years (1900–2023) using the EM-DAT global disaster database.
Through this study, the authors develop a Machine Learning (ML) model to predict pluvial flood risk under Representative Concentration Pathways (RCP) 4.5 and 8.5 for future scenarios of precipitation for the period 2021–2050 in Venice Italy.
This article provides nuanced projections of heat wave characteristics and their effect on mortality over the Eastern Mediterranean, finding that heat waves could occur seven times more often and last three times longer by the end of the 21st century.
This study investigates benefits of combining modelling and measurement methods for flood resilience strategies, applying a participatory system thinking approach that combines Fuzzy Cognitive Mapping with Flood Resilience Measurement for Communities.
Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) represent a relatively new response towards disaster risk reduction, water security, and resilience to climate change, which has a potential to be more effective and sustainable than traditional measures.
