The journal appears quarterly and provides for experts from various fields information about terms and concepts related to disasters and risks, and also research results in this area. The understanding of the risk phenomena and processes mechanisms in time and space is achieved through careful research by experts in various fields of science. Among them an important role is played by geographers, because these phenomena and processes are manifestating in the geographical fields, and their behavior is subjected to the tempo-spatial laws. Achieving the risk phenomena and processes in-depth knowledge helps in the risk management policy, and also in their prediction and prevention, and last but not least in the reconstruction of the affected environment.
The publication presents topics of great scientific interest focused on several issues: conceptual and methodological approaches, geomorphic, climatic and water risk phenomena and processes in Romania and other countries of the world, risks caused by human activities, disaster and risk management etc..

Mures, Suceava, Sibiu, etc..) and abroad (France, Italy, Greece, Germany, Hungary, Czech Republic, Croatia, Canada etc..).
