Hi Emily,

The Webinars look interesting, but we got the word late to notify everyone for the one yesterday.  We were having some network issues.

Do you know if the Earthquake Webinar will be offered again?

PART 1:
CURRENT SCIENCE ON EARTHQUAKE SOURCE AND RELATED HAZARDS

Is the West coast ready for a 9.0 magnitude earthquake followed by a large tsunami? Geoscience data and information collected over the last 30 years show that multiple giant earthquakes and associated local tsunamis have struck the Pacific Northwest (including Northern California, Oregon, Washington, and Southwestern British Columbia) for at least the past 10,000 years.  The 800-mile Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ), which stretches from northern California to southern British Columbia, is the main source of these earthquakes and accompanying tsunamis. This three-part webinar series will look at the science and engineering associated with the earthquake source, the hazards, current strategies to mitigate loss of life, and emerging opportunities in early warning and reducing uncertainty.
 
Part 1 of the series will highlight the work of two prominent scientists, Dr. Kelin Wang of the Geological Survey of Canada and Dr. Joan Gomberg of the U.S. Geological Survey/University of Washington.

Climate Risk Resilience in U.S. Cities and Towns:
Current Processes and Emerging Trends
Presented by Dr. William D. Solecki
 
Increased climate variability and climate change has encouraged U.S. communities to review and enhance their environmental risk and hazard mitigation strategies. Much of this effort has focused on resiliency efforts, defined as the capacity to withstand or absorb a shock or stress and quickly recover from an extreme event. Cities are developing climate adaptation plans, policies, and other tactics to improve their resiliency to climate risks and have started to implement some of these efforts. The objective of the presentation is to review and assess these city-level activities, define key concerns that city stakeholders and practitioners have regarding climate resiliency, and evaluate significant challenges and opportunities that are faced. Emerging best practices and lessons learned will be reviewed. The role of science-policy linkages, co-production strategies, city-level knowledge networks, and federal-state-municipal connections will be examined. A case study of post-Hurricane Sandy New York and the extended urban Northeast U.S. will be used to illustrate these points.
