Definition

A seafloor hazard and engineering concept defining assessments used to evaluate seabed stability and risk to people and infrastructure. It governs site investigation, property measurement, and mapping used to identify failure mechanisms and design constraints. It does not eliminate risk and requires appropriate safety factors, monitoring, and conservative assumptions where uncertainty remains.
