Topic Area

Climate, Multi-hazard Modeling, and Earthquake Resilience

Description

As various geologic and atmospheric hazards are amplified by a changing climate, interest in work at the intersection of climate change and seismic hazard has grown. This session will convene speakers who are working at the intersection of climate change and seismic hazards to discuss advancements in this field. Topics covered in this session include: climate change effects on sea level rise, and the design considerations for multi-hazard environments, including hurricanes and wildfires, and climate-induced complications in post-disaster recovery.  

This session will act as an avenue for in-depth conversations concerning the intricate interplay between seismic hazard dynamics and the subsequent increase in risks to the built environment. Our discussions will be enriched by a dual perspective, considering the technical complexities alongside the policy decisions. We anticipate thought-provoking discussions about the current strategies for assessing and proactively addressing seismic hazards. Through an interdisciplinary dialogue, we hope to help foster a deeper understanding of how climate change, seismic events, and other geologic and atmospheric hazards collectively impact the resilience and sustainability of civil infrastructure and communities.
