Natural Disaster Risk Management: Geosciences and Social Responsibility

Natural disasters occur every day and can occur at almost at any place on the

globe. Nevertheless the geological situation and the geomorphological implica-
tion make the occurrence at specific places more probable than at others. Even

very rare disasters occur, such as the meteorite impact in Siberia in 2012, an event
that according to statistics only happens less than once a year. But if it had been a
meteorite of just several centimeters in diameter, it would have created an impact
crater able to eradicate a mid-size town from the landscape.
