NATURAL HAZARDS

Natural Hazards is devoted to original research work on all aspects of natural hazards, including the forecasting of catastrophic events, risk management, and the nature of precursors of natural and technological hazards.Although hazards can originate in different sources and systems, such as atmospheric, hydrologic, oceanographic, volcanologic, seismic, neotectonic, the environmental impacts are equally catastrophic. This warrants a close interaction between different scientific and operational disciplines, aimed at enhancing the mitigation of hazards.Coverage includes such categories of hazard as atmospheric, climatological, oceanographic, storm surges, tsunamis, floods, snow, avalanches, landslides, erosion, earthquakes, volcanoes, man-made and technological, as well as risk assessment.

《自然灾害》致力于自然灾害各方面的原始研究工作，包括灾难性事件的预测、风险管理以及自然灾害和技术灾害前兆的性质。虽然灾害可以来自不同的来源和系统，例如大气、水文、海洋、火山、地震、新构造，但环境影响同样是灾难性的。这需要不同的科学和业务学科之间密切合作，以加强减轻危害。涵盖范围包括以下类别的危险:大气、气候、海洋、风暴潮、海啸、洪水、雪、雪崩、滑坡、侵蚀、地震、火山、人为和技术，以及风险评估。
