Risk group @ EGU 2018 in Vienna, Austria

The Risk Group participated in the European Geosciences Union (EGU) General Assembly in Vienna, Austria, on 08 April to 13 April 2018. This meeting was a great success, with 4,776 oral, 11,128 posters, and 1,419 PICO presentations. 15,075 scientists from 106 countries participated.

As usual, attending The European Geosciences Union (EGU) General Assembly in Vienna is an amazing opportunity for our group to be an interactive part with the huge platform of experts and scientific researchers from over the world and from different fields. The Risk Group people presented 10 contributions as first authors whose titles are below.
