Dear colleagues,
We would like to draw your attention to our session on
"Volcanic hazard evaluation: methodologies and applications"
to be held during the IUGG Perugia General Assembly,
Perugia, Italy, 2-13 July, 2007.
A description of the session is provided below.
Best regards,
Susanna Falsaperla
VS008: "Volcanic hazard evaluation: methodologies and applications"
Sponsoring Association: IAVCEI
Conveners: Roberto Carniel, Susanna Falsaperla
The aim of this session is to discuss quantitative tools to evaluate
volcanic hazard, both from the theoretical point of view and from the point
of view of the application to specific case studies. We welcome
contributions that allow to characterize the entire processing line going
from the monitoring data to the probability of a given eruptive scenario.
In particular, the theory and application of methodologies that can be used
to integrate different strands of evidence and that can handle new
monitoring data as it comes in to evaluate updated
probabilities are particularly welcome. These include for instance bayesian
belief networks and event trees but also methodologies that can feed these
tools with simpler input data, such as artificial neural networks,
classification tools, data reduction tools, multivariate time series
statistics, markovian models, logical models,
expert elicitation techniques, etc.
