Security and protection system, any of various means or devices designed to guard persons and property against a broad range of hazards, including crime, fire, accidents, espionage, sabotage, subversion, and attack.
Using GPS signal reflections to map snow depth "opens a broad range of research, hazard, and practical possibilities," he says.
CMFs form a broad range of glacial hazards and include mass movements of glacial ice, rock avalanches, ice rock avalanches, glacial debris flows, and outburst-generated flows.
This area, located east of the Wellington Fault, has a broad range of natural hazards (e.g., earthquake, tsunami, seiche, liquefaction, landslide, and wildfire).
A growing body of research also suggests that communities characterized by racial and economic segregation are disproportionately exposed to a broad range of environmental hazards.
Environ Health Perspect 123:1095–1099; http://dx.doi.org/10.1289/ehp.1409525 Environmental health problems arise in a wide array of locations and conditions with a broad range of potential hazards and outcomes.
Probabilistic methods allow scientists to evaluate the unknowns and to quantify and compare the likelihood of a broad range of different possible hazard scenarios, introducing more practical applications to risk assessment than traditional methods which typically analyse only one scenario (Newhall and Hoblitt 2002; Marzocchi et al. 2012).
In this study, a complete database of hazard radii due to a broad range of hole sizes and release pressures was provided using available discharge and dispersion models.
Ice accretion on cold solid surfaces presents hazards to a broad range of applications.
This design envisions support of a broad range of applications (e.g., marine operations, natural hazards, and ecosystem-based management) through the routine operation of predictive models that utilize the system observations to ensure their validity.
