N2  - Building an interdisciplinary team is critical to disaster response research as it often deals with acute onset events, short decision horizons, constrained resources, and uncertainties related to rapidly unfolding response environments.  This article examines three teaming mechanisms for interdisciplinary disaster response research, including ad hoc and/or grant proposal driven teams, research center or institute based teams, and teams oriented by matching expertise toward long-term collaborations. Using hurricanes as the response context, it further examines several types of critical data that require interdisciplinary collaboration on collection, integration, and analysis. Last, suggesting a data-driven approach to engaging multiple disciplines, the article advocates building interdisciplinary teams for disaster response research with a long-term goal and an integrated research protocol.<br><br>© 2019 Society for Risk Analysis.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
