Abstract

The understanding of the systemic risk posed by multi-hazard is becoming a new area of research and adopted by the different global and national frameworks. This chapter summarizes the contents of the book titled geohazard mitigations, which contains thirty-eight chapters. These chapters are divided into three sections namely: multi-hazard assessment, landslide hazard assessment and mitigation, and geotechnical engineering. This chapter also includes basic definitions and introduction to geohazard investigation and management.
