Marine geohazards exposed: Uncertainties involved
نویسندگان
چکیده
By exhaustively reviewing the literature related to marine geohazards, this paper reports on their uncertainties. Examples of geohazards include submarine landslides, fluid flows in underground, scour events, and seabed gouging by ice. Key uncertain variables interest geohazard assessments are identified structured relating a framework defining main generic components any risk description task describing field. Furthermore, issues sources uncertainty scrutinised some recommendations how address large uncertainties made. Specific considerations proposed for analysing Arctic, where exploration development activities currently regaining momentum. Ultimately, based identified, we also strive identify knowledge gaps orientate scientific research efforts field geohazards.

Reducing Reliability Uncertainties for Marine Renewable Energy
Technology Readiness Levels (TRLs) are a widely used metric of technology maturity and risk for marine renewable energy (MRE) devices. To-date, a large number of device concepts have been proposed which have reached the early validation stages of development (TRLs 1–3). Only a handful of mature designs have attained pre-commercial development status following prototype sea trials (TRLs 7–8). In...
متن کاملIrreducible uncertainties, sustainable fisheries and marine reserves
Marine reserves are increasingly proposed as a management tool. Models can play a valuable role in the evaluation of the possible benefits of reserves because they allow us to conduct many more investigations than could ever be done empirically. In this paper, I develop a model for a marine reserve for an open population subject to environmental uncertainty.
متن کاملAddressing Geohazards Through Ocean Drilling
Natural geohazards, such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, landslides, and volcanic collapse, are of immediate societal concern. In an oceanic setting (Fig. 1), all are capable of generating tsunami that threaten coastal zones at distances of many thousands of kilometers. This power and its effects were forcefully shown by the giant earthquake (� w 9.2) and tsunami of 26 December 2004 off t...
متن کاملOffshore geohazards and seabed mobility
This research stream is focussed on offshore hazards, with particular attention to the mobility of the seabed – whether through large scale geological events, or local scale sediment transport processes. This report is divided into two broad areas. We have extensive activity to report on the subject of seabed mobility, through studies around the O-Tube program (see also the separate report on t...
متن کاملQuantifying, predicting, and exploiting uncertainties in marine environments
Following the scientific, technical, and field trial initiatives ongoing since the Maritime Rapid Environmental Assessment (MREA) conferences in 2003, 2004, and 2007, the MREA10 conference provided a timely opportunity to review the progress on various aspects of MREA, with a particular emphasis on marine environmental uncertainty management. A key objective of the conference was to review the ...
