AboutAbout the lab
Showing risks to drive disaster preparedness action
The Disaster Preparedness Behavior Lab studies how climate change alters the way rain falls, and how to evaluate water disaster risks across entire river basins.
It also studies risk assessment that gives companies and other organizations a reason to take active steps toward disaster preparedness.
The lab also works on methods to encourage residents to evacuate.
It is an endowed research division in the Department of Civil Engineering, Faculty of Engineering.
Key terms
- River basin
- The entire area of land where rain that falls collects and flows into a single river
- Endowed research division
- A research field established at a university for a fixed period with donations from companies or foundations
