The Natural Hazards Engineering Research Infrastructure (NHERI) is a distributed national facility that enables research discoveries that will protect human life, reduce damage, and minimize economic losses during natural hazard events.
5 Year Science Plan
A roadmap for researchers in related disciplines working together to achieve common goals.
The Workspace gives researchers the power to share and publish data, access tools for data analysis and visualization, and run simulations on state-of-the-art supercomputer resources.
The NHERI Facilities offer access to shared-use experimental laboratories, field equipment, simulation tools, and a network of social science, engineering, and interdisciplinary researchers.
The Learning Center offers training webinars from all NHERI components, as well as resources for students, post-docs, and early career researchers.
