Subject: COV10: Call for Abstracts - S2.9 Scenario-based hazard and risk assessment
************************************************************************************************************
Dear colleagues,
We invite you to contribute to the session S2.9 - Scenario-based hazard and risk assessment: Development and application for volcanic risk management at the Cities of Volcanoes 10 Conference (Naples, Italy, 2-7 September 2018).
Invited speakers:
Sebastien Biass (UH Manoa) and Natalia Deligne (GNS Science)
Description:
Recent volcanic risk management efforts suggest eruption scenarios are useful for demonstrating the extents, magnitudes and timescales of volcanic hazards and the risks to nearby populations and infrastructure. Scenario modeling is also a key tool for hazard model development and validation and for hazard and risk assessment. Developing eruption hazard and impact scenarios requires integrating diverse data sets such as eruptive histories, analogous eruptions, population dynamics, societal exposure inventories, and asset vulnerabilities. Each are subject to variable degrees of uncertainty. Scenario outputs are valuable for engaging with practitioners and stakeholders, and collaborations on scenario-based projects facilitate a full analysis of mitigation and development of emergency response planning. This session will focus on the development and application of volcanic eruption scenarios for volcanic risk management. We encourage submissions related, but not limited, to scenario-based hazard simulations and impact/risk analysis, multi-hazards and probabilistic approaches to scenario development, characterization of scenario uncertainty, integration of local exposure and vulnerability, and the use of collaborative methods for scenario development.
