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(zāi)害》致力于對自然災(zāi)害的各個(gè)方面、災(zāi)難性事件的預(yù)測、風(fēng)險(xiǎn)管理以及自然和/或技術(shù)災(zāi)害前兆的性質(zhì)進(jìn)行原創(chuàng)性研究。

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

本期刊感興趣的災(zāi)害包括以下部分：一般、大氣、氣候、海洋、風(fēng)暴潮、海嘯、洪水、雪、雪崩、山體滑坡、侵蝕、地震、火山、人為、技術(shù)和風(fēng)險(xiǎn)評估。該期刊還討論了這些危害與社會(huì)之間的相互作用，包括風(fēng)險(xiǎn)治理、災(zāi)害響應(yīng)和預(yù)防行動(dòng)，如空間規(guī)劃和補(bǔ)救措施。

Natural Hazards創(chuàng)刊于1988年，由Springer Netherlands出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋環(huán)境科學(xué) - 地球科學(xué)綜合全領(lǐng)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(yè)認(rèn)可度不錯(cuò)，仍然是一本值得選擇的SCI期刊 。平均審稿速度 約4.5個(gè)月 ，影響因子指數(shù)3.3，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預(yù)警名單，廣大學(xué)者值得一試。
