This paper highlights the results of the assessment of operational risks related to the components of the dangerous goods transport chain. Due to the fact that multiple parties are involved in handling and transport procedures, numerous different risks may arise during activities involving dangerous goods. By identifying and assessing risks, the most critical ones are identified and evaluated according to the potential damage they may cause to the entire transport chain. The results of the risk assessment in the t...

Urban areas built above salt deposits are especially vulnerable to ground instability caused by dissolution, suffosion, and human activities. Monitoring these environments is difficult due to the complex subsurface structures and dense infrastructure constraints. Understanding the dynamics of these processes requires combining multiple investigation and monitoring methods to capture both underground conditions and surface movements. This paper shares initial findings from an ongoing multi-method monitoring project...

The road transport of dangerous goods may have severe consequences in the event of an accident. The consequences of a road accident involving a heavy vehicle transporting dangerous goods can affect not only the truck driver but also the nearby population. Route selection is a complex issue, influenced by multiple parameters that may vary over the course of a day, a week, or a month. The ultimate objective is to enhance safety through the complete digitalization of the risk management process for the transport of d...

The geomagnetic field varies in time and space, being a signal composed of periodic and non-periodic elements and is monitored in a triaxial system at observatories around the world. Based on data from INTERMAGNET observatories, we analyze the strongest storm of 2026, which occurred during January 19-21. The methodology used is spectral evaluation (Fourier, wavelet, signal decomposition into approximations and details with various functions on different levels, etc.). The wavelet technique allowed us to analyze th...
