《自然災(zāi)害與地球系統(tǒng)科學(xué)》(NHESS)是一份跨學(xué)科的國際期刊，致力于對自然災(zāi)害及其后果的高質(zhì)量研究和原創(chuàng)研究的公開討論和開放獲取。擁抱一個整體的地球系統(tǒng)科學(xué)方法,NHESS提供廣泛多樣的社區(qū)研究的科學(xué)家,醫(yī)生,和決策者關(guān)心檢測自然災(zāi)害的監(jiān)測和造型,脆弱性和風(fēng)險評估和減輕和適應(yīng)策略的設(shè)計和實(shí)現(xiàn),包括經(jīng)濟(jì)、社會和教育方面。NHESS的范圍包括:研究自然系統(tǒng)向極端條件的演化，以及發(fā)現(xiàn)和監(jiān)測演化的前體;對自然現(xiàn)象的探測、監(jiān)測和建模，以及為了解和預(yù)測危險自然事件的行為和時空演變及其后果而綜合測量和模型;設(shè)計、開發(fā)、試驗(yàn)和驗(yàn)證新技術(shù)、方法和工具，用于探測、測繪、監(jiān)測和模擬自然災(zāi)害及其對人類、環(huán)境和社會的影響;設(shè)計、實(shí)施和關(guān)鍵評估減緩和適應(yīng)戰(zhàn)略，以減少有害自然事件對人為結(jié)構(gòu)和基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施的影響，減少脆弱性，提高個人和社會的復(fù)原能力;分析氣候和環(huán)境變化對自然災(zāi)害的影響及其后果。

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences (NHESS) is an interdisciplinary and international journal dedicated to the public discussion and open-access publication of high-quality studies and original research on natural hazards and their consequences. Embracing a holistic Earth system science approach, NHESS serves a wide and diverse community of research scientists, practitioners, and decision makers concerned with detection of natural hazards, monitoring and modelling, vulnerability and risk assessment, and the design and implementation of mitigation and adaptation strategies, including economical, societal, and educational aspects.The scope of NHESS includes the following:the study of the evolution of natural systems towards extreme conditions, and the detection and monitoring of precursors of the evolution;the detection, monitoring, and modelling of natural phenomena, and the integration of measurements and models for the understanding and forecasting of the behaviour and the spatial and temporal evolution of hazardous natural events as well as their consequences;the design, development, experimentation, and validation of new techniques, methods, and tools for the detection, mapping, monitoring, and modelling of natural hazards and their human, environmental, and societal consequences;the design, implementation, and critical evaluation of mitigation and adaptation strategies to reduce the impact of hazardous natural events on human-made structures and infrastructure, to reduce vulnerability and to increase resilience of individuals and societies;the analysis of the impact of climatic and environmental changes on natural hazards and their consequences.
