GeoEnvironmental Engineering and GeoHazards Mitigation: The research portfolio for the Geoenvironmental Engineering and GeoHazards Mitigation (GEH) program element includes projects on geoenvironmental engineering, including physical, chemical, thermal and biological processes that affect the properties of geologic materials; contaminant transport and hydraulic properties of geologic materials involved in surface and subsurface flow; and construction for remediation and containment of geoenvironmental contamination. The GEH program also supports research in geological engineering and engineering geology, geotechnical earthquake engineering and strong ground motion, piping (particle erosion, transport, and deposition), scour, tsunamis (both earthquake and non-earthquake generated), landslides and debris flows.
