Natural Hazards Observer

The Bimonthly Periodical of the Natural Hazards Center

The Natural Hazards Observer covers disaster issues, recent disaster management and education programs, hazards research, political and policy developments, resources and Web sites, upcoming conferences, and recent publications.

Distributed to over 15,000 subscribers in the United States and abroad the Observer focuses on human adaptation and response to natural hazards and is a forum for interested individuals to express opinions through invited personal articles.

Notice to Subscribers: We're now offering readers the option of a printed Observer for only $15 per year. That nominal and not-for-profit cost includes bimonthly delivery to your desk via First Class mail—and that’s not all.

You’ll also get a copy of The Disaster Years, a new book of cartoons by Observer artist Rob Pudim that spans his 36 years of limpid cartooning in the realm of hazards and disasters. This book is not for sale and is available only to subscribers to the Observer print edition.

Those interested in subscribing can sign up on our subscription page using a credit card or be invoiced later. Of course, the Observer is still available as a free PDF download.
