These
pages represent the Work in Progress of the Geological Society Working Party on
Geological Hazards and are at this stage an experimental test bed and should be
treated as such. |

 |
The aim of this
working party is to utilise the expertise within the Engineering Group to provide a 'one-stop'
resource for UK geohazard related information and awareness. Key objectives are;
To provide a link between Geohazard Experts to those industries, professions
and communities that interact or encounter geological hazards in the UK and
overseas; To engage with that 'end-user communities' in order to provide a useable
resource for their specific geohazard related requirements; To improve communication between specialists, and between hazards
practitioners and the wider communities. |
