Workshop themes align with three USGS subduction zone science and hazard priorities (relevant to earthquakes, volcanoes, landslides, tsunami and cascading phenomena):
- new observations and models of subduction zone processes,
- quantification of natural hazards and risk, and
- forecasting and situational awareness.
The meeting agenda includes keynotes, contributed short-format talks and posters (contributions noted on the registration form), and discussions focusing on critical needs, research priorities, and plans for a cross-discipline community of practice.
Travel support is available for a limited number of early career participants and for USGS scientists. Reach out to Kirstie Haynie with questions/comments.
We hope to see you in Seattle!
