This check sheet encourages hazards and disaster researchers to consider how their research results can be used to better understand and improve population health. It includes questions that researchers can use as a guiding point for reflection on the public health outcomes and consequences of their work. About the CONVERGE Extreme Events Research Check Sheets Series: The National Science Foundation-supported CONVERGE facility at the Natural Hazards Center at the University of Colorado Boulder has developed a series of short, graphical check sheets that are meant to be used as researchers design their studies, prepare to enter the field, conduct field research, and exit the field. The series offers best practices for extreme events research and includes check sheets that are free to the research community.
