The different types of hazards require different adaptation practices, such as changing agricultural techniques (for example, tillage in adequate time and way according to the soil characteristic, water efficient irrigation, shelter belts) or even land use changes such as conversion of arable land to pasture.
Through scientific research progress, disaster risk reduction has benefitted, especially in terms of early warning systems (EWS) that identify risk at various spatial and temporal scales and construction techniques that strengthen the resilience of buildings and infrastructures to different types of hazards, among many other examples.
