Earthquakes and tsunamis are examples of natural disasters with dramatic consequences. Earth Science or Geoscience are disciplines which could help to better predict or reduce the damages caused by such disasters. They embrace disciplines as diverse as volcanology, climatology, atmospheric science, seismology and oceanography. The objective is to understand the interaction between the Earths geology, atmosphere, oceans, biosphere and the human responses towards them. Many projects in Geosciences undertaken by the European Research Council (ERC) address key social challenges: they investigate the role of organic aerosols in climate change and air pollution and the long-term management of forest in the preservation of ecosystems. See how they are working on developing a new 3 dimensional model of the Earths mantle or how they are trying to monitor atmosphere through GPS in order to predict tsunamis. europa.eu/!jD77kR
