Refugee settlements are frequently located in isolated and remote areas, characterized by poor-quality land and harsh climatic conditions. Zaatari camp in Jordan has suffered and continues to suffer from rainwater floods every winter. This study uses GIS analysis to assess flood risk in the camp, revealing that 61.1% of the area is moderately risky, while 0.84% and 22.42% are very high and high

The drastic change in LULC changes the CN. This change directly affects surface water including peak flows. This study aims to assess the change in surface runoff due to changes in LULC. H

Passive MASW surveys utilize ambient noise from traffic and natural seismicity, making them a non-invasive and cost- effective method for subsurface investigation. Key parameters such as receiver array lengt

Satellite images in January, April, July and October of the period of 2005- 2009 were gathered with 30-meter resolution. Secondly, from the enhanced images, the traces of internal waves were digitized. Final

An earthquake catalog, spanning from 1837 to 2022 AD, has been compiled and homogenized using local empirical relationships. The completeness of this catalog is assessed via the Cumulative Visual Ins
