News from the CRC
New publications on our website in the last month include a number of reports and journal papers.
A scoping study from the Capability needs for emergency and disaster management organisations project looks at the challenges of individual and inter-operational capability needs of first response, support and recovery agencies in a context of collaborative response to complex emergencies and disaster events, while a desktop review for the Mapping and understanding bushfire and natural hazard vulnerability and risks at the institutional scale study presents a summary of risk ownership allocation for the strategic management of natural hazard risks in Australia.
New journal articles online include papers from the Mapping bushfire hazards and impacts project, a Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning Victoria commissioned research project and two papers that have come from previous Bushfire CRC projects investigating travel times and determining optimal travel routes from emergency services bases to bushfires and carbon loss from planned burning in southeastern Australian dry Eucalyptus forests.
