Earthquake Data and Processes: integrative approaches from observations to hazard and risk assessment.

Convener: Bruno Pace | Co-conveners: Men-Andrin Meier, Ylona van DintherECSECS, Vitor Silva

Understanding earthquakes and their impacts requires a comprehensive and interdisciplinary approach. This session invites contributions that span the full spectrum of earthquake science—from seismological, geological, and geodetic observations, to experimental and numerical studies of earthquake physics, and further to seismic hazard and risk assessment. We particularly welcome studies that integrate multiple components of this chain, bridging gaps between data acquisition, physical modelling, and hazard quantification.
The session aims to foster dialogue among earthquake geologists, geodesists, seismologists, engineers, and modellers, encouraging submissions that reflect innovative and integrative methodologies. It is inspired by the vision of the MSCA-DN TREAD project, which promotes a unified framework connecting small-scale laboratory experiments with large-scale observational and modelling efforts. While showcasing recent outcomes from the TREAD scientific community, we warmly invite contributions from researchers outside the consortium who share this interdisciplinary perspective.
