内容简介:
“An excellent introduction to the risk assessment of natural
events such as floods,droughts,earthquakes and tsunamis。” ——
Choice
The assessment of risks posed by natural hazards such as floods,
droughts,earthquakes,tsunamis or cyclones,may not reflect the full
range or magnitude of events possible。 As human populations grow,
especially in hazard-prone areas, methods for accurately assessing
natural hazard risks are becoming increasingly important。Jonathan
Nott describes the many methods used to reconstruct such hazards
from natural long-term records。He demonstrates how long-term
records are essential in gaining a realistic understanding of the
variability of natural hazards,and how short-term historical
records can often misrepresent likely risks。
