Chemical and Biological Human Health Risk Assessment of Water Pollution Afterward of Earthquake

Abstract

Earthquakes are one of the biggest disaster in the world reality. As a results of earthquake many undesired problem come true. Water is vital for human and health. To protect and predict the water quality is essential all the time included disaster terms. Risk assessment tool is very important for management of disaster likewise many other applications of life. Today risk management and assessment still need more attention. Showing importance of human health risk assessment with considering the earthquakes, risk assessment methodologies, approaches, requirements are main purposes of the present study. As result, very big links were showed between water, health earthquakes along with their potential methodologies.
