- Understanding Landscape Change for Disaster Mitigation
Tjek vores konkurrenters priser
Natural disasters are occasional intense events that disturb Earth's surface, but their impact can be felt long after. Hazard events such as earthquakes, volcanos, drought, and storms can trigger a catastrophic reshaping of the landscape through the erosion, transport, and deposition of different kinds of materials. Geomorphology and Natural Hazards: Understanding Landscape Change for Disaster Mitigation is a graduate level textbook that explores the natural hazards resulting from landscape change and shows how an Earth science perspective can inform hazard mitigation and disaster impact reduction. Volume highlights include: Definitions of hazards, risks, and disastersImpact of different natural hazards on Earth surface processesGeomorphologic insights for hazard assessment and risk mitigationModels for predicting natural hazardsHow human activities have altered 'natural' hazardsComplementarity of geomorphology and engineering to manage threats
