4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4 From: Julie MORIN <julie.morin@xxxxxx> Dear colleagues, We are pleased to invite you to submit an abstract to the session S3.16 â??Evacuations in volcanic environments: practice, realities and advancesâ?? ( https://pcoconvin.eventsair.com/volcanoes11/session03#S316) for the COV11 Conference in Heraklion, Crete, 23-27 May 2020. *Description: Conducting timely and complete evacuations in volcanic environments, coupled with maintaining them over time, is a complex issue. It is crucial to optimize the factors that lead to efficient evacuations to be able to save lives during a volcanic crisis, as shown for example during the 2010 Merapi eruption during which gradual evacuations saved 10,000 to 20,000 lives. However, an efficient evacuation in the eyes of the authorities (with as few fatalities as possible) might not necessarily be considered as effective by the evacuees themselves. Inconveniences and disruptions in their daily life (e.g. access to livelihoods), create incentives to return to exclusion zones, against advice. This session invites submissions that evaluate the drivers for a successful evacuation from the point of view of scientists, decision-makers, any other stakeholders, and the population at risk.. Contributions that explore the incentives, limitations, strategies, and root causes that inform decisions to evacuate in the face of a volcanic threat are particularly welcome. Any type of evacuation will be considered: either short or long-term, emergency, compulsory, spontaneous, marked by refusals, real or exercise-based, passed or expected. We welcome case studies, as well as propositions of approaches, methods, and tools to study and improve the efficiency of evacuation procedures and their acceptability for evacuees in volcanic environments. We invite contributions from physical and social sciences researchers as well as from practitioners from the communities, NGOâ??s, and authorities who have experienced and/or potentially will experience evacuations. *The submission deadline is Monday, 25 January 2020.* Details for submission at: https://pcoconvin.eventsair.com/volcanoes11/abstracts *Conveners: Julie Morin, University Clermont Auvergne, France Jenni Barclay, University of East Anglia Estu Wulang Mei, University Gadjah Mada Looking forward to seeing you in Crete! 4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4 ============================================================== Volcano Listserv is a collaborative venture among Arizona State University (ASU), Portland State University (PSU), the Global Volcanism Program (GVP) of the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Natural History, and the International Association for Volcanology and Chemistry of the Earth's Interior (IAVCEI).
