Description
Abstract:Contains 46 peer-reviewed papers on climate extremes and earthquake modeling. Topics include: climate model simulation and predictions: assessing and modeling compound and cascading events; instrumentation for modeling and assessment; climate-resilient and adaptive infrastructure; natural and man-made earthquakes and associated geo-hazards; and seismic event case histories and lessons learned. This GSP will be of interest to geotechnical engineers, climate scientists, emergency managers, insurance professionals, and policy makers working to address a wide variety of extreme events.
Item Description:Sponsored by the Geo-Institute of the American Society of Civil Engineers.
Physical Description:1 online resource (xii, 482 pages) : illustrations (some color), color maps
