Sažetak
Natural hazards (earthquake, drought, flood, landslide, soil erosion, desertification, volcanic eruption, hurricane, wildfire, water and soil pollution) are risks to inhabited regions due to extreme aberrations in nature. Common among all hazards is the inadequacy of methods to express risk to the public. Risk gauges are lacking that could adequately quantify the probability of occurrence, the consequences to life and property as well as the temporal and spatial scales of such events. There are many commonalities in origins among hazards. For example, earthquakes and landslides, floods and landslides, droughts and wildfires, floods or droughts and soil and water pollution occur together. Unfortunately little joint research goes on.
