Natural Hazards Review

Journal Title：Natural Hazards Review

The Natural Hazards Review addresses the range of events, processes, and consequences that occur when natural hazards interact with the physical, social, economic, and engineered dimensions of communities and the people who live, work, and play in them. As these conditions interact and change, the impact on human communities increases in size, scale, and scope. Such interactions necessarily need to be analyzed from an interdisciplinary perspective that includes both social and technical measures. For decision makers, the risk presents the challenge of managing known hazards, but unknown consequences in time of occurrence, scale of impact, and level of disruption in actual communities with limited resources. The journal is dedicated to bringing together the physical, social, and behavioral sciences; engineering; and the regulatory and policy environments to provide a forum for cutting edge, holistic, and cross-disciplinary approaches to anticipating risk, loss, and cost reduction from natural hazards. The journal welcomes rigorous research on the intersection between social and technical systems that advances concepts of resilience within lifeline and infrastructure systems and the organizations that manage them for all hazards. It offers a professional forum for researchers and practitioners working together to publish the results of truly interdisciplinary and partnered approaches to the anticipation of risk, loss reduction, and community resilience. Engineering topics covered include the characterization of hazard forces and the planning, design, construction, maintenance, performance, and use of structures in the physical environment. Social and behavioral sciences topics include analysis of the impact of hazards on communities and the organizations that seek to mitigate and manage response to hazards.

《自然災害評論》探討了自然災害與社區的物理、社會、經濟和工程層面以及在其中生活、工作和娛樂的人們相互作用時發生的一系列事件、過程和后果。隨著這些條件的相互作用和變化，對人類社區的影響在規模、規模和范圍上不斷增加。這種相互作用必然需要從包括社會和技術措施的跨學科角度進行分析。對于決策者來說，風險帶來的挑戰是管理已知危害，但在資源有限的實際社區中，發生時間、影響規模和破壞程度的后果未知。該期刊致力于將物理、社會和行為科學、工程學以及監管和政策環境結合起來，為預測自然災害的風險、損失和成本降低的前沿、整體和跨學科方法提供一個論壇。該期刊歡迎對社會和技術系統交叉點的嚴格研究，這些研究推進了生命線和基礎設施系統以及管理所有災害的組織的復原力概念。它為研究人員和從業人員提供了一個專業論壇，共同發布真正跨學科和合作方法的成果，以預測風險、減少損失和社區恢復力。涵蓋的工程主題包括危險力量的特征以及物理環境中結構的規劃、設計、建造、維護、性能和使用。社會和行為科學主題包括分析危害對社區的影響以及尋求減輕和管理對危害的響應的組織。

Natural Hazards Review創刊于2000年，由American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋ENGINEERING, CIVIL - GEOSCIENCES, MULTIDISCIPLINARY全領域，此刊是中等級別的SCI期刊，所以過審相對來講不是特別難，但是該刊專業認可度不錯，仍然是一本值得選擇的SCI期刊 。平均審稿速度 12周，或約稿 ，影響因子指數1.8，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預警名單，廣大學者值得一試。
