The past year will be long remembered for the Magnitude 7.0 Port-au-Prince earthquake in January, the environmental catastrophe following the April 2010 explosion aboard the oil exploration rig Deepwater Horizon, and the devastating flooding and landslides accompanying this year's monsoon season in Asia. Each of these events dramatically testifies to the enormous social and environmental implications that result when Civil Engineering infrastructure is impacted by geohazards. However, our ability to protect against these events is limited by our knowledge of the underlying fundamental science. While much has been learned, there are many unresolved issues affecting urban and rural communities in Canada and beyond.

过去一年将在1月的7.0港口港口地震，2010年4月在油勘探装备深水地平线上爆炸之后发生的环境灾难以及遭受毁灭性的​​洪水和今年在亚洲季风季节的遭受毁灭性的​​洪水和山地滑坡。这些事件中的每一个都显着证明了土木工程基础设施受地球扎华影响的巨大社会和环境影响。但是，我们保护这些事件的能力受到我们对基本基础科学的了解的限制。尽管已经学到了很多东西，但仍有许多未解决的问题影响了加拿大及其他地区的城市和农村社区。
