Climate change is driving more frequent and severe hydroclimatic events that overlap with and exacerbate existing hazards. This workshop aims to engage multi-disciplinary researchers and practitioners in conversation about the future of interconnected hazards research. Special attention will be placed on the overlap of hydroclimatic change and earthquake hazard through the lens of the recent, unprecedented Cyclone Gabrielle, which caused ~NZ$8 billion in damage across Hawke’s Bay, Aotearoa New Zealand — a region with the largest seismic hazard in the country.
Who should attend?
Any hazards researchers or practitioners interested in working together to solve complex problems.
Why should you attend?
- Generate a roadmap of future research directions at the nexus of hazards and climate change
- Network with potential collaborators at Penn State University and University of Auckland
- Engage with practitioners to identify pertinent problems in the multi-hazard space
