We strive to increase the resilience of our society to natural disasters through an integrative understanding of social-natural systems. The natural hazards of our interest are included droughts, and floods, earthquakes, and so on. Our analysis is at various spatiotemporal scales from catchment- to global-scale and across disciplines among hydrology, climatology, hydraulics, and social psychology. Detailed descriptions of our research interests are in the following Research Projects.
