Written by some of the world's leading experts, this book provides a state-of-the-art overview of risk and uncertainty assessment in natural hazards. It presents the core statistical concepts using clearly defined terminology applicable across all types of natural hazards and addresses the full range of sources of uncertainty, the role of expert judgement and the practice of uncertainty elicitation. The core of the book provides detailed coverage of all the main hazard types and concluding chapters address the wider societal context of risk management. This is an invaluable compendium for academic researchers and professionals working in the fields of natural hazards science, risk assessment and management and environmental science and will be of interest to anyone involved in natural hazards policy"--Publisher description. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Natural disasters.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85090214 650 0 Risk assessment.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh87002638 650 7 Natural disasters.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1033994 650 7 Risk assessment.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1098146 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Rougier, Jonathan,|d1966-|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n2012042389|eeditor. 700 1 Sparks, R.
