Welcome to the Offshore Geohazards website for non-scientists. In addition to a glossary of terms, this section of the site will provide links, images and other resources that we hope will be useful to those trying to find out basic information about offshore geohazards. What are the different categories of these geohazards? What does the terminology mean? What sort of impacts do these events have? Answers to these and other questions will be found in this section.
