4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4 From: Sebastien Biasse <sbiasse@xxxxxxxxxx> Dear colleagues, Have you recently developed new tools that could be of use to the community? Then consider submitting an abstract to the session SS4 â??*Tools in volcanology: A lightning demonstration session*â?? at the next COV11 to give a practical demonstration of its use! This â??specialâ?? session aims at bridging the gap between methods and tools developed in an academic context with possible end-users. These include hazard models, visualization tools, interactive maps, statistical methods for data analysis or phone apps, contributions are welcome from any tool serving the purpose of research and education. If you are interested and would like more information/feedback on if your tool is suitable, please feel free to contact any of the convenors. Hope to see you there! Stuart Mead â?? (S.Mead@xxxxxxxxxxxx) Sarah Ogburn â?? (sogburn@xxxxxxxx) Seb Biass â?? (sbiasse@xxxxxxxxxx) *Abstract* The benefits of scientific advances in volcanology, hazard and risk science have often been under-utilized by the community, observatories and decision-makers. Technological developments such as the establishment of VHub, cloud-based geospatial platforms (e.g. Google Earth Engine) and web-based interactive computing (e.g. Jupyter and R Shiny) have gone some way to bridging the gap between scientific research and practice. IAVCEI commissions have also made considerable progress in increasing connections between scientists and end-users. However, the uptake of products and tools from scientific research and observatories by end-users and other observatories can be improved through simple, effective demonstrations of use. To facilitate the uptake of such tools within the wider community, we seek contributions for a practical demonstration session. Presenters will have the opportunity to demonstrate, within a strict time limit (5-10 minutes), the practical application of a tool (e.g. software, instruments, interactive applets, etc.) they use or created to improve the day-to-day activities of volcanologists, observatories and decision-makers; saving time, increasing resilience and improving outcomes for society. This session is supported by the IAVCEI Commission on Statistics in Volcanology with the aim of increasing the usage of quantitative tools for analysis of all kinds of volcanological data. We particularly encourage demonstrations of applications that simplify quantitative techniques into easy to use and freely available tools and/or are made by volcano observatories to support their operations. When submitting to this session, please indicate and special requirements needed for your demonstration. *The submission deadline is Monday, 25 January 2020.* Details for submission at: https://pcoconvin.eventsair.com/volcanoes11/abstracts 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).
