Volcanic Eruption Mechanism Modeling Workshop

我们将召开一次国际研讨会，将不断壮大的火山喷发建模者与实验家和现场火山学家聚集在一起，以实现两个具体目标：1)确保建模者从最近的实验结果和观测中获得最新的岩浆参数值；2)建立一套具有相同岩浆和管道特征的标准化模型“实验”和通用协议，以确保模型结果可以随后进行有意义的比较和评估。讲习班的具体目标将是制定一套标准参数和一套由所有模型执行的模型“实验”。来自建模组的代表被期望执行完整的模型运行套件，提供标准协议所需的特定输出集。结果随后将被编译和评估，以确定模型输出差异的来源。模型运行的结果将在2003年4月举行的AGU-EGS-EUG联合会议特别会议上提出。预计综合这些模型相互比较活动将导致识别一些关键的概念、实验和观测差距，并产生一个“社区模型”，可用于未来的发展和与新获得的观测结果进行直接比较。随着这些问题的曝光，研究界可以最有效地向前推进，在实验和观测以及建模领域的后续研究中解决这些差距。

VOLCANIC ERUPTION MECHANISM MODELING WORKSHOPEAR-0226392PI: SahagianWe will convene an international workshop to bring together the growing community of volcanic eruption modelers with experimentalists and field volcanologists to accomplish two specific goals: 1) Ensure that modelers are provided the most up-to-date values of magmatic parameters from recent experimental results and observations; and 2) Establish a standardized set of model "experiments" with identical magma and conduit characteristics and a common protocol to assure that model results can be subsequently meaningfully compared and evaluated. The specific objectives of the workshop will be to produce a standard set of parameters and a set of model "experiments" to be performed by the all models. Representatives from the modeling groups are expected to perform the full suite of model runs, providing the specific set of output required by the standard protocol. The results will be subsequently compiled and evaluated to determine the sources of differences in model output. The results of the model runs will presented at a special session of the joint AGU-EGS-EUG meeting in April 2003. It is expected that a synthesis of this model intercomparison activity will lead to identification of a number of critical conceptual, experimental, and observational gaps, and the production of a "Community Model," which can be used for future development and direct comparison with newly acquired observations. As these are brought to light, the research community can most effectively move forward to address these gaps in subsequent research within the experimental and observational, as well as modeling sectors.
