Place-Based Decision Support for Spatial and Temporal Transference of Risk and HazardsThe role of inequality (geographic, temporal, social) is one of the least understood concepts in vulnerability science, an emergent multidisciplinary field focused on what makes people and places vulnerable to environmental threats from natural, technological, or human-induced threats. This research examines the different impacts of hazards and risks on people and the places they live and will develop new methods and models for measuring vulnerability (and resilience) to extreme events and chronic risks at the local level. Two place-based case studies will serve as test-beds for linking theory, concepts, methods, and models in a GIS-based decision support tool kit. The case study sites, Los Angeles, CA and Charleston, SC were chosen based on the mix of common and unique hazards (hurricanes, earthquakes), a range in scale-dependent complexities of the regions, the nature of the built environment, and the local knowledge of team members.This project will provide a protocol and tool kit for gathering information to guide and advance knowledge of the changing distribution and nature of hazards vulnerability. It will transfer such knowledge and tools to the practitioner community, thus providing the scientific basis for decisions regarding hazard preparedness, planning, response, and reduction at the federal, state, and local levels. It will also help train the next generation of vulnerability scientists.

基于场所的决策支持对风险和危害的空间和时间转移，不平等的作用（地理，时间，社会）是脆弱性科学中最知名的概念之一，这是一个新兴的多学科领域，重点是使人和地方容易受到自然，技术或人类诱发的威胁的环境威胁。 这项研究研究了危害和风险对人们及其居住地的不同影响，并将开发新的方法和模型，以衡量当地一级对极端事件和慢性风险的脆弱性（以及弹性）。 基于GIS的决策支持工具套件中的两个基于位置的案例研究将用作链接理论，概念，方法和模型的测试床。 根据常见和独特的危害（飓风，地震）的组合，选择区域的规模依赖性复杂性，建筑环境的本质以及团队成员的当地知识的范围，选择了一个协议和工具套件，以指导和提高了变化的范围的差异，该案例研究网站是基于常见和独特的危害（飓风，地震）的组合，依赖于区域的规模依赖性复杂性，建筑环境的本质以及当地知识的当地知识的范围来选择案例研究地点。 它将将这种知识和工具转移到从业人员社区，从而为联邦，州和地方一级的准备，计划，响应和减少的决定提供科学基础。 它还将帮助培训下一代脆弱性科学家。
