APEC Cooperation for Earthquake Simulation (ACES)
Workshop on Advances in Simulation of Multihazards
Maui, Hawaii, May 1-5, 2011

The APEC Cooperation for Earthquake Simulations organization announces a workshop to discuss simulation of earthquake and other natural hazards around the Pacific Rim.

To be held in Maui, Hawaii, at the Makena Resort in Kihei, Hawaii, during May 1-5, 2011, the workshop will bring together scientists from the Australia, Canada, China, Chinese Taipei, Japan, the United States, and other APEC economies that have been devastated in recent years by earthquakes and other disasters.

Local Organizing Committee (LOC) will include John Rundle (Chair), John McRaney (Secretary), and the ACES International Science Board.


Sessions

Advances in complex fault-based system-level simulations of plate boundaries and the science that underlies them
Simulation of multihazards, including tsunamis, storm surges, flooding, landslides, wildfires, and climate change
Enabling technologies including cloud computing, radar interferometry, and geographic information systems
Applications of simulation technology to seismic early warning, forecasting, and urban hazard mitigation

Registration

Attendance will be limited, and an early indication of interest will be appreciated. Partial travel support may be available from the Local Organizing Committee.

The deadline for submitting abstracts with your registration was April 8.
