“…Finally, community social structure is among its drivers to disaster vulnerability. For example, poor and/or absolute lack of communication tools and low literacy rate limit disaster risk awareness and people cannot easily transmit a message to others in case of early alert and risk information sharing (Chen et al ; Miao et al ). Thus, the authors judged it reasonable to add population density and possession rate of communication tools (radio, television, or mobile phone) among the data sets.…”

“…; 2) economic vulnerability related to the resources and/or capacity of building sturdy infrastructures; 3) physical vulnerability determined by population density, settlement remoteness, and housing; along with 4) environmental vulnerability such as degradation of natural resources (UNISDR ; Michael and Samanta ; Claeys et al ). Moreover, previous studies (Esperón‐Rodríguez et al ; Liu et al ; Maanan et al ; Miao et al ) that attempted to assess disaster vulnerability highlighted climate change, rapid human population growth, inappropriate natural resources management, lack of strong weather monitoring and early warning systems, and political and administrative structures among key drivers. The above vulnerabilities are associated with the fact that regular vulnerability and capacity assessment (VCA) is not prioritized to understand the problem, underlying causes, and required mechanisms (Mikoš ; Wang et al ).…”

Landslides are among hazards that undermine the social, economic, and environmental well‐being of the vulnerable community. Assessment of landslides vulnerability reveals the damages that could be recorded, estimates the severity of the impact, and increases the preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation as well. This study aims to estimate landslides vulnerability for the western province of Rwanda. Field survey and secondary data sources identified 96 landslides used to prepare a landslides inventory map. Ten factors—altitude, slope angles, normalized difference vegetation index (NVDI), land use, distance to roads, soil texture, rainfall, lithology, population density, and possession rate of communication tools—were analyzed. The Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) model was used to weight and rank the vulnerability conditioning factors. Then the Weighted Linear Combination (WLC) in geographic information system (GIS) spatially estimated landslides vulnerability over the study area. The results indicated the altitude (19.7%), slope angles (16.1%), soil texture (14.3%), lithology (13.5%), and rainfall (12.2%) as the major vulnerability conditioning parameters. The produced landslides vulnerability map is divided into 5 classes: very low, low, moderate, high and very high. The proposed method is validated by using the relative landslides density index (R‐index) method, which revealed that 35.4%, 25%, and 23.9% of past landslides are observed within moderate, high, and very high vulnerability zones, respectively. The consistency of validation indicates good performance of the methodology used and the vulnerability map prepared. The results can be used by policy makers to recognize hazard vulnerability lessening and future planning needs. Integr Environ Assess Manag 2019;00:000–000. © 2019 SETAC

Hazards are problems that can arise due to the climate crises. The rise in temperature on the earth can lead to an outbreak of many natural hazards. Hazards arising due to the climate crises are typically characterized by their unspecified targets, diversified aspects, and enlarged scale. This study aimed to examine the distribution and accessibility of disaster evacuation facilities, considering Cheongju as the target city. Our findings show that the disaster evacuation facilities are proportional to the population; therefore, the distance between the facilities was less in highly populated areas. Areas far from the disaster evacuation facilities are generally scattered. This particular area has a population scattered over a wide region; therefore, it was not easy to designate a disaster evacuation facility. Additionally, regression analysis was performed to examine the regional characteristics exhibited by the distance from the disaster evacuation facilities, which showed that the areas with a higher population of toddlers relative to the entire population and a higher number of buildings were nearer to the disaster evacuation facilities. Conversely, areas with a higher elderly population relative to the entire population and decrepit buildings were further from the disaster evacuation facilities.

“…Wang et al, (2015, 56) stated that subjective methods are not always guaranteed to give the correct result, and that this deficiency can be overcome through objective methods. There are also studies conducted in different fields that use the two methods together (Miao et al, 2018;Nguyen et al, 2020;Xu et al, 2020). Another important aspect of the study is that it analyzes the financial impact of the pandemic in a developing country Turkey's football sector, which is one of the fastest growing industries in the world.…”

Futbol endüstrisindeki finansal yönetim yetersizlikleri, COVID-19 sırasında kulüplerin finansal sürdürülebilirliği konusundaki endişeleri artırmıştır. Bu bağlamda, bu çalışma, Borsa İstanbul'da işlem gören dört futbol kulübünün pandemi dönemi finansal performans analizlerini ve performans sıralamalarını önceki beş yıllık dönemle karşılaştırmayı amaçlamaktadır. Çalışma 2016-2020 yılları arasını kapsamaktadır. Çalışmada Kriterler Arası Korelasyon Yoluyla Kriterlerin Önemi ve Gri İlişkisel Analiz tekniklerini entegre eden bir yöntem kullanılmıştır. Çalışma sonucunda, kulüplerin pandemi döneminde çalışma sermayesi ve sabit varlık yatırımlarını arttırdığı ve finansmanda daha az yabancı kaynağa yöneldikleri görülmüştür. Ayrıca geçmiş yıllara göre ortalama finansal performansı yüksek olan kulüpler, finansal olarak pandemiden daha az etkilenmiştir.
