The island of Java, Indonesia, is known to have high seismic risk due to its dense population, high seismic hazard and the abundance of seismically vulnerable buildings. However, there is a limited understanding of the spatial distribution of building types and its implications for seismic risk in the island. This gap in understanding primarily stems from the absence of a robust exposure model that covers multiple building use...

Indonesia is located in one of the most seismically active regions in the world and often experiences damaging earthquakes. In the past the housing sector has sustained higher earthquake related damage and losses than other sectors. This is often attributed to the fact that the most common houses in Indonesia are non-engineered, built with poor quality workmanship, poor quality materials and without resilient seismic design fe...

Key message We transferred the Tri6 gene into the elite barley GemCraft via new transformation method through shoot organogenesis and identified the rearrangements of transgenes and phenotypic variations in the transgenic plants . Abstract Despite its agronomic and economic importance, barley transformation is still very challenging for many elite varieties. In this study, we used direct shoot organogenesis to transform the el...

We employ a single-country dynamically-recursive Computable General Equilibrium model to make health-focussed macroeconomic assessments of three contingent UK Greenhouse Gas (GHG) mitigation strategies, designed to achieve 2030 emission targets as suggested by the UK Committee on Climate Change. In contrast to previous assessment studies, our main focus is on health co-benefits additional to those from reduced local air pollut...
