Earth hazards
This
theme centres on research into the dynamic processes in the Earth's core, mantle, and crust, and the space environment surrounding our planet.
We need to understand how these processes create and control hazards to life, the environment, and economic infrastructure. This will enable
better forecasts to be made of earthquake occurrence and volcanic eruptions, and of related hazards including tsunamis. Scientific knowledge
is translated into information and risk analyses to assist decision makers in their task of developing adaptation and mitigation strategies
to minimise harm.
