9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9 From: "Mead, Stuart" <S.Mead@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Dear Colleagues, With the abstract submission deadline of 25th January approaching at a rapid pace, we would like to invite you to contribute to the following session on evaluation and quantification of uncertainty in models and data to support hazard and risk assessment at Cities on Volcanoes 11 ( https://pcoconvin.eventsair.com/volcanoes11/session03#S35 ). Errors and uncertainties are present in all models and data of volcanic processes as well as in assessments of hazards, risks, and benefits to society. Despite their pervasiveness, their evaluation and quantification are sometimes limited in volcanic hazard and risk assessment. We seek to open discussions on error and uncertainty, highlight the benefits that quantification of data/model errors and uncertainties can bring and demonstrate ways it can enhance decision making for risk mitigation. Examples of submissions we expect to this session include model validation and benchmarking studies, model averaging approaches to improve hazard estimates and techniques to measure error/uncertainty in field and laboratory data. We hope to see you in Crete soon! 9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9 ============================================================== 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).
