| Book Description | The sendai framework for disaster risk reduction 2015-2030 has identified four priority areas for disaster risk reduction: understanding disaster risk; strengthening disaster risk governance to manage disaster risk; investing in disaster risk reduction for resilience and enhancing disaster preparedness for effective response; and to "build back better" in recovery, rehabilitation and reconstruction. Although tremendous progress has been made in recent decades in understanding the workings of the earth systems and, in particular, its impacts on and responses to human actions, there remains a continuing and pressing need for knowledge that will allow society to simultaneously reduce exposure to global environmental hazards, while also meeting economic development goals. Exploring natural hazards: a case study approach, contributes to the knowledge showcasing advanced practices for the monitoring of natural hazards. |
