We invite researchers, including early-career scientists and students, to submit abstracts to our session, â??Low-Probability High-Impact Eruptionsâ?? in Theme 6. This session will address challenges in understanding, preparing for, and mitigating the effects of large-scale eruptions. Session Abstract: Past large-scale eruptions such as the VEI 7 Rinjani and Tambora eruptions in 1257 CE and 1815 CE caused catastrophic global impacts. Although the probability of a future VEI 7 eruption is quite low (1 to 2 per millennia), such events would cause widespread cascading effects and impacts on hemispherical to global scales. Growing population exposures to volcanic hazards and increasing dependence on interconnected infrastructure systems and economic sectors amplify these risks. This potential for severe and far-reaching impacts necessitates diligent mapping and monitoring, preparedness, and international planning and cooperation. This session aims to explore strategies to better understand and prepare for low-probability high-impact eruptions. Topics include analysis of past events and their frequencies (including studies describing the spatial and temporal evolution of discernible eruptive phases); geochemical-geophysical observations; numerical hazard modelling; risk, exposure, and impact assessments; climatic effects; and strategies for effective communication, preparedness, and overall risk assessment.
