| Marine geologist with expertise in deep-water Quaternary sedimentation and geohazards offshore eastern Canada. |
|
| Prevention and management of geohazards must be supported by research on disaster risk reduction. |
|
| The program is also assessing the possible environmental issues posed by gas hydrates and associated geohazards. |
|
| This was done by putting geohazards in a social context and working with communities, land use planners, educators and emergency managers to incorporate geoscience in decision making. |
|
| Along with geohazards, palaeontology may be the sexier side of geology. |
|
| The work is focused on improving our understanding of coastal processes, rising sea level, subsidence, and potential geohazards in permafrost-affected areas. |
|
| The Centre researches and monitors earthquakes in Canada, as well as other marine geohazards, explores the coastal marine environment and investigates present-day movements of the Earth's crust. |
|
| Remote sensing methods that monitor, model, and map natural hazards for events such as floods, hurricanes, forest fires, oil spills and geohazards. |
|
| As geological forces constantly cause the surface of the earth to move, monitored changes in the reference frames contribute to a better understanding of Earth processes linked to global changes and geohazards. |
|
| This activity aims to integrate and interpret the existing multibeam bathymetry and backscatter data, seismic and core data in order to produce formal surficial geology and geohazards maps. |
|
| The geological and earthquake engineering scope will include assessment of geohazards, source characterization, probabilistic seismic hazard, and site response analyses. |
|
| Marine geohazards that exist in this seismically active region include, slope stability features, active faults, gas pockmarks, and large migrating sedimentary bedforms. |
|
| Geohazards such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, landslides and subsidence inflict an enormous cost to the society in terms of loss of life and property. |
