2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2 From: Gaetana Ganci <gaetana.ganci@xxxxxxx> Dear colleagues, We would like to encourage you to submit an abstract to the following session at the vEGU 2021 (19-30 April 2021): *Volcano hazard modelling ** (**GMPV10.1/NH2.5)* https://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU21/session/39459 <https://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU21/session/39459> *Developing physical-mathematical models able to describe the evolution of eruptive phenomena is a key point in volcanology. In the case of high-risk phenomena, such as lava flows or ash dispersal, predicting their spatial and temporal evolution and determining the potentially affected areas is fundamental in supporting every action directed at mitigating the risk as well as for environmental planning.This session aims to address unresolved challenging questions related to complex geophysical flow modeling and simulation, gathering physical-mathematical models, numerical methods and field and satellite data analysis in order to: (i) expand knowledge of complex volcanic processes and their space-time dynamics; (ii) monitor and model volcanic phenomena; (iii) evaluate model robustness through validation against real case studies, analytical solutions and laboratory experiments; (iv) quantify the uncertainty propagation through both forward (sensitivity analyses) and inverse (optimization/calibration) modelling in all components of volcanic hazard modelling in response to eruptive crises.* Conveners: *Gaetana Ganci (INGV), Vito Zago (N**orthwestern University*), Alexis Herault (le CNAM), Annalisa Cappello (INGV) The *deadline* for submitting your contribution to the vEGU2021 is *13 January 2021*, 13:00 CET. We look forward to e-meeting you! Tania, Vito, Alexis and Annalisa 2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2 ------------------------------
