- Summary
- "Environmental Disasters is an important new study into catastrophic events, natural and man-induced or a combination of both. It reviews the most significant disasters that have taken place in the past and analyses the results of research following more recent events. Risk mapping, using data from satellite monitoring, is highlighted as a method by which preventative or mitigating measures can be put in place."--Jacket.
