The project aims to provide a new understanding of Indo-Pacific history post-1000 based on an improved understanding of the interrelationship between natural environmental cycles and events, and social and political cycles and events. By employing specialists and methodologies in both the social and natural sciences, the project aims to identify tipping points or thresholds beyond which both social and natural systems change irrevocably. The anticipated outcome of the project highlights the importance of natural hazards as potential catalysts of historical change. Current societies might learn from these experiences to better understand disaster risk reduction in the context of anticipated climate variability.

该项目的目的是提供一个新的理解印度太平洋历史后1000年的基础上，更好地了解自然环境周期和事件之间的相互关系，社会和政治周期和事件。通过雇用社会科学和自然科学的专家和方法，该项目旨在确定社会和自然系统发生可持续变化的临界点或阈值。该项目的预期成果突出了自然灾害作为历史变革潜在催化剂的重要性。当今社会可以从这些经验中学习，以便更好地理解在预期的气候多变性背景下减少灾害风险。
