Abstract

More than 50% of the world's trade happens via seaborne line. The sustainability of the ports is crucial as it boosts economic growth. However, climate change and its effects have disturbed the port's activities. This paper highlighted the possibility of climate change effects threatening some ports worldwide. A systematic literature review has been conducted, and 11 resources have been used to summarize their impact on port activities. The climate change effects encountered by the ports and their authorities' adaptation measures are underlined. Ports worldwide are considered. As a result, sea level rise (SLR), storm surges, and flooding are some threats that can affect port activities. Adaptation and mitigation plans can be more successfully implemented with excellent knowledge of the factors leading to increased exposure. From the port expansion to creating a new location of ports, the other mitigation and adaptation plan towards the sustainable ports is by providing an accurate topographic map, a good simulation software, and good resilience infrastructures and adaptation framework. The related ports have suggested and implemented adaptation and mitigation approaches to resolve the problem and sustain their ports and harbour activities. Adaptation and mitigation measures taken will respond to the effects of climate change.

Abstract

Rock slope failures remain a significant concern in regions of Malaysia with varying geological formations. This review examines the challenges posed by these incidents and addresses key knowledge gaps. By providing a comprehensive, multidisciplinary analysis of case studies, technological advancements, climate influences, disaster management, and socio-economic impacts, it offers valuable insights for researchers, engineers, and policymakers. It examines key failure types, including rock falls, slides, avalanches, and general failures, through notable case studies such as Bukit Lanjan (Selangor), Kinta Valley (Perak), and Mount Kinabalu (Sabah). A comprehensive methodology framework was employed, utilizing manual search techniques (handpicking, snowballing, citation, and reference tracking) alongside advanced keyword-based searches with Boolean operators in Scopus, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar databases. Findings reveal that Malaysian rock slopes are highly susceptible to collapse due to heavy rainfall, human activities, and natural events such as earthquakes. While these factors can act independently, their combined effects significantly amplify failure risks, particularly during intense rainfall. The consequences extend beyond immediate casualties, injuries, and property damage, leading to infrastructure failures, economic disruptions, and environmental degradation. This review underscores the need for sustainable mitigation strategies to address these risks and highlights the urgency of implementing effective solutions to safeguard lives, infrastructure, and ecosystems.
