Volcanology
Risk characterization is the process of evaluating and communicating the potential risks associated with volcanic hazards to inform decision-making and risk management. This process combines scientific data, assessments of exposure and vulnerability, and stakeholder input to present a comprehensive understanding of the likelihood and consequences of volcanic events. Effective risk characterization helps communities prepare for potential disasters by integrating various factors that contribute to overall volcanic risk.
