| Scope |
In Asian countries, natural hazards such as earthquakes, tsunamis,
volcanic eruptions, typhoons, floods occur frequently and claiming
many human lives. In order to reduce such disasters, information
exchange and multi-disciplinary studies in natural science,
engineering science, human and social science, as well as
international collaboration are important. Furthermore, outreach and
policy recommendation based on research are also needed. This
session is proposed to offer such a forum. |
