Session Title:
S012. Earthquakes Related Cascading Hazards
Primary Section:
Seismology
Conveners:
Dr. Shanshan Li (Florida International University, USA), shli@fiu.edu
Dr. Zhigang Peng (Georgia Tech, USA), zpeng@gatech.edu
Dr. Shimon Wdowinski (Florida International University, USA), swdowins@fiu.edu
Dr. Philippe Steer (University of Rennes 1, France), philippe.steer@univ-rennes1.fr
Session Description:
It is now well established that earthquakes can trigger or be triggered by other natural processes, including other earthquakes, landslides, tsunami, ice movement, volcanism, and extreme weather events and other cyclic forces such as tides, annual variations in atmospheric pressures and ground waters. However, identifying and understanding the physical mechanism, frequency, time delays and control factors of different earthquake related triggering relationships remains challenging. In this session, we welcome contributions that address, quantify, compare and model triggering relationships between earthquakes and between earthquakes and other natural hazards observed over timescales ranging from seconds to years in different tectonic regions. We aim to provide a platform for discussing potential earthquake-related triggering mechanisms and explore potential impacts of earthquakes and other natural hazards. We hope this session can provide new insights for estimating the likelihood of future damaging earthquakes and other natural hazards.
