This book is a product of the joint efforts of interdisciplinary academic fields under
the integrative framework of human geoscience. Human geoscience is a new genre of
geoscience concerned with the natural phenomena that occur on the surface of the Earth
and their relations with human activities. It therefore has connections with many
fields of geoscience, namely, physical geography, geomorphology, geology, soil science,
sedimentology, seismology, volcanology, meteorology, climatology, oceanography, and
hydrology. It also has strong links to the humanities, social sciences, agricultural
sciences, and engineering related to disaster prevention or mitigation. All these
disciplines are important fields for understanding disasters and global environmental
problems and for evaluating the associated risks comprehensively, then proposing mitigation
strategies. The volume is designed for those who may not necessarily have a geoscience
background but have broad scientific interest in understanding the causes, mechanisms,
and consequences of geo-disasters and global environmental problems and wish to make
the world more sustainable on that basis. The book consists of six parts: I. Introduction,
II. Earth Surface Realms, III. Natural Resources and Society, IV. Natural Hazards
and Society, V. Global Environmental Problems, and VI. Global Sustainability Programmes
and Human Geoscience, which discusses the contribution of this field of science to
a new comprehensive framework for global sustainability
