Geo-Environmental Risk Research Topic
Research Topics
The Geo-Environmental Risk Research Topic is addressed to hazard analysis and risk assessment, for planning and management of the territory and emergencies. Within this topic, stratigraphic-sedimentological, geological-structural, geomorphological, hydrogeological, volcanological, geochemical, geophysical and geotechnical studies are carried out, at regional and site specific scale, for the realization of subsurface models and hazard assessment. The representative methodologies of structural engineering and planning, aided by information technology, contribute to studies aimed at assessing and mitigating geo-environmental risks.
In this general framework, the activities of this Research Topic are mainly addressed to: 1) the analysis of susceptibility, hazard, vulnerability and expected degree of loss, in marine and terrestrial areas, to support prediction, prevention, monitoring and mitigation activities of geo-environmental risks induced by natural processes (floods, landslides, fires, seismicity, volcanism, groundwater flows and land-sea exchange, natural radioactivity, geogenic gases) and anthropogenic activity (hazardous events in urban areas and high cultural value induced by landuse and subsoil, effects of the cultivation of geo-resources, consequences of air-water-soil contamination caused by industrial activity and waste storage); 2) the realization of studies for the planning and sustainable management of the territory, also in the post-event phase; 3) the development of innovative technological tools for the management and analysis of data and for the modeling of phenomena.
