Description

Natural hazards cost the global economy over $50,000 million per year.

Two thirds of this is spent on damage repair, the remainder represents the cost of predicting, preventing and mitigating against disasters.

Man-made hazards such as groundwater pollution, subsidence and soil erosion add to this figure.

Geological Hazards presents a state-of-the-art survey and examines methods of assessing, evaluating and combating hazards, both natural and man-made.
