Journal Title：Natural Hazards

Natural Hazards is devoted to original research work on all aspects of natural hazards, the forecasting of catastrophic events, their risk management, and the nature of precursors of natural and/or technological hazards.

Although the origin of hazards can be different sources and systems (atmospheric, hydrologic, oceanographic, volcanologic, seismic, neotectonic), the environmental impacts are equally catastrophic. This circumstance warrants a tight interaction between the different scientific and operational disciplines, which should enhance the mitigation of hazards.

Hazards of interest to the journal are included in the following sections: general, atmospheric, climatological, oceanographic, storm surges, tsunamis, floods, snow, avalanches, landslides, erosion, earthquakes, volcanoes, man-made, technological, and risk assessment. The interactions between these hazards and society are also addressed in the journal and include risk governance, disaster response and preventive actions such as spatial planning and remedial measures.

《自然災害》致力于對自然災害的各個方面、災難性事件的預測、風險管理以及自然和/或技術災害前兆的性質進行原創性研究。

盡管災害的起源可能來自不同的來源和系統（大氣、水文、海洋、火山、地震、新構造），但對環境的影響同樣具有災難性。這種情況需要不同科學和操作學科之間的緊密互動，從而增強對災害的緩解。

本期刊感興趣的災害包括以下部分：一般、大氣、氣候、海洋、風暴潮、海嘯、洪水、雪、雪崩、山體滑坡、侵蝕、地震、火山、人為、技術和風險評估。該期刊還討論了這些危害與社會之間的相互作用，包括風險治理、災害響應和預防行動，如空間規劃和補救措施。

Natural Hazards創刊于1988年，由Springer Netherlands出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋環境科學 - 地球科學綜合全領域，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 約4.5個月 ，影響因子指數3.3，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。
