Abstract0213686, Harry Yeh, U. of Washington "International Travel Grant to Support U.S. Involvement in HAZARDS-2002"This action provides support for U.S. participation in the international symposium HAZARD-2002, to be held in Antalya, Turkey, October 2002.The symposium is organized biennially by the Natural Hazards Society, and presents a wide range of state-of-the-art natural hazards mitigation strategies, from fundamental understanding of the phenomena to evacuation planning. The topics include meteorological hazards such as hurricanes, typhoons, cyclones, tornadoes, fires, droughts; geological hazards, including earthquakes, landslides, and volcanic eruptions; hydrological and marine hazards, for example tsunamis, storm surges, floods, sea-level rise, and marine biological hazards; and technological hazards, including air and water pollution. The participants supported by this award include key persons as well as junior members of the U.S. natural hazards research community. Their participation at this symposium is critical for fostering cooperative research efforts. Research in natural hazards, and in particular tsunami research, has become increasingly international in its focus. Strong international cooperation is necessary since tsunamis, for example, can affect not only the region near the source but also distant regions through propagation across oceans.Findings from this symposium will be disseminated to U.S. researchers in natural hazards.

摘要 0213686，Harry Yeh，华盛顿大学“支持美国参与 HAZARDS-2002 的国际旅行补助金”这一行动为美国参加将于 2002 年 10 月在土耳其安塔利亚举行的 HAZARD-2002 国际研讨会提供支持。由自然灾害协会每两年组织一次，展示各种最先进的自然灾害危害缓解策略，从对现象的基本了解到疏散计划。主题包括飓风、台风、旋风、龙卷风、火灾、干旱等气象灾害；地质灾害，包括地震、山体滑坡和火山爆发；水文和海洋灾害，例如海啸、风暴潮、洪水、海平面上升和海洋生物灾害；以及技术危害，包括空气和水污染。该奖项支持的参与者包括美国自然灾害研究界的关键人物和初级成员。他们参加本次研讨会对于促进合作研究工作至关重要。自然灾害研究，特别是海啸研究，其焦点已日益国际化。强有力的国际合作是必要的，因为海啸不仅会影响震源附近的地区，还会通过海洋传播影响遥远的地区。本次研讨会的研究结果将分发给美国自然灾害研究人员。
