U.S. Colombia Planning Workshop; Knowledge Sharing and Collaboration in Volcanic Risk Mitigation at Galeras Volcano, Narino, Colombia

建议摘要：OISE-0929511 PI/机构：纽约州立大学(SUNY)布法罗分校的Michael Sheridan提议的美国-哥伦比亚规划研讨会由来自纽约州立大学布法罗分校的美国PI Michael Sheridan博士与来自哥伦比亚的同事(Gustavo Cordoba博士，Univ.纳里尼奥)，墨西哥(何塞·马西亚斯博士，大学墨西哥国家大学)和英国(布里斯托尔大学史蒂夫·斯帕克斯)旨在改善参与哥伦比亚加雷拉斯火山活动的各方之间的沟通和风险认知。对于世界各地的活火山遗址来说，火山缓解是一个重要问题。与会者将根据目前分析火山危险的模型和方法，分析加雷拉斯火山现有的危险地图和安全计划。研讨会将向学员介绍如何使用“事件树方法”，以优化科学家、决策者和受危险自然现象影响地区的民众之间的沟通。这次研讨会的预期成果包括：信息传输；美国和哥伦比亚科学家和学生的劳动力发展；测试对决策者有用的新工具；开发纳入物理过程和社会参数的新模型，以及未来在这一重要领域的合作。

Abstract Proposal: OISE-0929511 PI/Institution: Michael Sheridan, State University of New York (SUNY) at BuffaloThe proposed U.S.-Colombia planning workshop organized by U.S. PI Dr. Michael Sheridan from SUNY at Buffalo with colleagues from Colombia (Dr. Gustavo Cordoba, Univ. of Nariño), Mexico (Dr. Jose Macias, Univ. Nacional Autónoma de Mexico -UNAM), and the U.K. (Steve Sparks, Bristol Univ.) aims to improve communication and risk perception among all of the parties involved in the Galeras volcanic activity in Colombia. Volcanic mitigation is an important issue for active volcano sites around the world. Participants will analyze existing hazard maps and safety plans for the Galeras volcano based on current models and methods for analyzing volcanic hazards. Workshop participants will be introduced to the use of an "event tree methodology" designed to optimize communication between scientists, decision makers, and populations in areas affected by hazardous natural phenomena. Expected outcomes of this workshop include: information transfer; workforce development of U.S. and Colombian scientists and students; testing of new tools useful to decision makers; development of new models that incorporate physical processes and social parameters, and future collaborations in this important area.
