Geohazards and Disasters: Modelling Scenarios as a Challenge for the Future aims to depict an updated view of the most significant technical-scientific knowledge on the topic of geological risks and related mitigation strategies with a focus on the resilience of anthropic communities, with the aim to sensitize them towards a prevention approach that is fed through awareness and technical competence. This book aims to fill knowledge gaps by relating on scientific and technical progress for the conscious and sustainable management of risk in a multi-hazard perspective, and will be a welcomed resource for researchers, academicians, graduate and undergraduate students, and professionals in the field of geology, specifically focused on geohazards and disaster management. Provides a synoptical view of geohazardsIntroduces a parallel design of chapters from hazards to scenariosPresents the most up to date scientific contents and technologies related to geohazards INDICE: 1.
