Lori Dengler | Post-event reconnaissance studies add to understanding of earthquakes, tsunamis (opens the original)
Read excerpt
An important part of the analysis of a major earthquake, tsunami, or other natural hazard event is reconnaissance field studies. Much can be learned from remote sensing imagery and eyewitness accounts, but boots-on-the-ground visits by experts are essential for both gathering quality data and understanding the complete scope of an event. As a participant in a number of such reconnaissance surveys, I can attest to how many valuable insights gained that would never have occurred to us beforehand.
Lori Dengler | Recovering from a disaster is the hardest part (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It’s impossible to avoid “disaster” these days. With the 25th remembrance of September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks flooding the news cycle, recent events, and dire warnings of this year’s El Niño, we are surrounded. The impacts of every disaster are not just in the seconds, hours, days, or months over which the physical assault occurs, but in the roots of each community formed years beforehand and how it handles it afterward. All disasters can be looked at through the lens of a cycle that begins
Lori Dengler | Himalayan floods: A freak event or sign of things to come? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The video footage is gut-wrenching. It often begins with a view of an ordinary day — cars moving on streets and people walking by shops. Then the waters arrive, surging under bridges and racing by riverbank buildings. For the first few seconds it looks like everything is high enough to escape major damage. But the surge only builds, higher and higher. A bridge is broken, joining the hurtling mass of debris heading downstream. The water reaches the ground floor of shoreline buildings, then the se
The Siskiyou Mountains are a special place to visit | Lori Dengler (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Last week, I spent a few days in Del Norte County’s Siskiyou Mountains. Being with close friends and family made it more special, especially when three of them were geologists. The Siskiyous are often bypassed by vacationers who head further inland for the majesty of the much higher Trinity Mountains. Don’t fall into this category as they offer remarkable sites to visit, hold cues to the origins of our region, and are only a few hours away. You’ve been to the Siskiyous whether you knew it or not
Lori Dengler | Hazards from space: Another warning system that is important to support (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I’ve never thought much about space weather before I visited NOAA’s Space Weather Center in Boulder two weeks ago. Like most people, I’ve heard about magnetic storms on the news and not paid much attention. The visit perked my interest and got me rethinking how warning systems are put together, what makes them effective, and why it might be easier to alert the whole planet of an impending magnetic storm than effectively warn coastal areas for a tsunami. Space weather seems like an odd term for c
