- Managing Tectonic Hazards
- Prediction and Forecasting Frameworks
- Getting Closer to Earthquake Forecasting and Prediction?
- Earthquake risk is based on statistical likelihood
- Data and evidence from global seismic monitoring networks and historical records
- Long-term forecasts are more reliable
- Forecasting encourages better building regulations and evacuation procedures
- It is not possible to make an accurate prediction of when or where an earthquake will occur
- Geophysicists are trying to improve prediction based on the underground movement of magma
- Earthquake risk is based on statistical likelihood
- Getting Closer to Earthquake Forecasting and Prediction?
- Understanding the Hazard Management Cycle
- Park's Model and Levels of Development
- A framework that helps to understand the time dimensions of resilience
- Hazard striking to when a place returns to normal
- X-axis shows the time
- Y-axis describes the quality of life, stability and infrastructure
- A framework that helps to understand the time dimensions of resilience
- Park's Model and Levels of Development
- The Range of Factors Affecting the Response to Hazards
- Human Factors
- Number of people involved
- Degree of preparedness
- Technological resources
- Scientific understanding
- Education and training
- Economic wealth
- Infrastructure
- Government competence
- Physical Factors
- Accessibility
- Type of hazard
- Scale

- Understanding the Stages in the Disaster Response Curve
- Pre-Disaster
- Quality of life is normal
- People prevent and prepare for such an event
- The public are educated
- Relief
- Medical attention
- Rescue services
- Rehabilitation
- People try to return to normal
- Food, water and shelter are provided to those without
- Reconstruction
- Infrastructure, crops and property are invested in
- Pre-Disaster
- Prediction and Forecasting Frameworks
