Dear all,

We kindly invite you to submit your abstracts to
the EGU2021 session GM9.11 "Volcano Geomorphology and Society: From
observations, monitoring, and modeling of tectonic and gravity driven
processes to disaster risk reduction" (
https://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU21/session/40276)

Volcanic complexes are among the worldâ??s most active geological systems.
They represent tectonic and geomorphological systems that are highly
responsive to both exogenous dynamics and endogenous forcing. While
external (gravitational) processes lead to a shift of material from steeper
slopes to areas with lower gradients (erosion and moderate to large-scale
mass-wasting), magmatic and tectonic activity can be either constructive
(resulting in accumulation) or destructive (triggering caldera collapses
and / or flank collapses).
Mass reorganization and wasting in volcanic environments, both onshore and
in the subaqueous domain, comprises a wide spectrum of phenomena, from
widespread spreading and lateral collapse to shallow, localized debris
remobilization, which represent a major threat for communities and
infrastructure. In many cases, volcano slopes continue below sea level.
Those subaqueous volcano flanks are also affected by the building-up and
activity of the terrestrial volcano, and can be prone to mass wasting.
This wide spectrum of phenomena can have an impact on local and regional
communities even far from the eruptive centers, directly or through
secondary and cascading events like tsunamis and floods. As these events
can rapidly evolve into disasters, the implementation of disaster risk
reduction (DRR) strategies is essential for reducing their impact on
communities and entire societies. Holistic analysis, monitoring, early
warning frameworks, and communication are paramount for increasing societal
awareness and preparedness for volcano-related hazards. These holistic
approaches include investigating geomorphological changes and tectonic
activity, the detection of which must integrate different methodologies for
mapping and monitoring - integrating field-based studies, geomorphological
mapping, remote sensing data, geophysical investigations, and / or
numerical modeling.
Scientists and non-academic stakeholders working in the fields of hazard
mapping, modeling, monitoring, early warning and hazard communication are
invited to present their recent advances in research and engagement in
dialogue with practitioners and decision makers. We encourage multi- and
transdisciplinary contributions that integrate field studies,
geomorphological mapping, geophysical investigations, remote sensing, and
analytical, numerical and analog modeling of geomorphological and tectonic
processes as well as their communication in volcanic areas.

We remind you that the EGU 2021 conference will be fully online (vEGU21
https://www.egu21.eu/) on 19-30 April 2021.

Abstract submissions will be accepted until 13 January 2021 at 13:00 CET.

Stay safe and healthy during COVID-19!


All the best!
