Overview
The (GEIRG) explores the influence of geohazards and climate change effects on the performance of core infrastructure (e.g. roads, buried pipelines, culverts). The research group leverages the expertise of a multidisciplinary team utilizing an integrated research framework that encompasses remote sensing, laboratory testing, physical modelling and numerical simulation tools.
