What is Natural Hazard Uncertainty Assessment: Modeling and Decision Support (Geophysical Monograph Series) about?
Uncertainties Are Pervasive In Natural Hazards, And It Is Crucial To Develop Robust And Meaningful Approaches To Characterize And Communicate Uncertainties To Inform Modeling Efforts. In This Monograph We Provide A Broad, Cross-disciplinary Overview Of Issues Relating To Uncertainties Faced In Natural Hazard And Risk Assessment. We Introduce Some Basic Tenets Of Uncertainty Analysis, Discuss Issues Related To Communication And Decision Support, And Offer Numerous Examples Of Analyses And Modeling Approaches That Vary By Context And Scope. Contributors Include Scientists From Across The Full Breath Of The Natural Hazard Scientific Community, From Those In Real-time Analysis Of Natural Hazards To Those In The Research Community From Academia And Government. Key Themes And Highlights Include: Substantial Breadth And Depth Of Analysis In Terms Of The Types Of Natural Hazards Addressed, The Disciplinary Perspectives Represented, And The Number Of Studies Included, Targeted, Application-centered Analyses With A Focus On Development And Use Of Modeling Techniques To Address Various Sources Of Uncertainty, Emphasis On The Impacts Of Climate Change On Natural Hazard Processes And Outcomes,
