Special Issue on Prevention and Control of Environmental Risk

Environmental risk can be classified into natural environment risk and man-made environment risk according to risk source. It refers to the probability of causing harmful events to human health, social economy and ecological system caused by natural causes or various social and economic activities of human beings. Some of the concepts, principles and effects of environmental risk are ambiguous, and they are very difficult to adapt to the rapid social development. Therefore, the construction of environmental risk assessment, environmental emergency response plan management, environmental risk inspection and classification of key industries are of great significance for the prevention and control of environmental risks.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original researches and review articles on exploring prevention and control of environmental risk. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Environmental risk assessment
• Environmental risk management
• Environmental emergency plan management
• Natural disaster risk
• Social environmental risk
• Risk identification
• Risk prediction
• Environmental development policy

Authors should read over the journal’s For Authors carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper Submission System.

Please kindly notice that the “Special Issue” under your manuscript title is supposed to be specified and the research field “Special Issue – Prevention and Control of Environmental Risk” should be chosen during your submission.
