The students will be familiar with the probability of natural hazard and risk determining parameters. They will be able to recognize procedures of single and multi-hazard assessment and to process input data and to apply tools to study areas. Students will be introduced in further advanced geotechnologies and existing or on-going research as well as global projects conducted by GFZ.
Hazard Assessment and Applications
Primary input and output parameters for EQ (and other natural) hazard; Earthquake statistics and occurrence probability; Methodology of seismic hazard assessment; Seismicity models; Examples of seismic hazard and risk studies; Synopses of natural hazards; procedures and developments in multi-hazard assessment; Case studies of multi-hazard, vulnerability, and risk considerations.
Workshop
”Natural Hazards and Advanced Geotechnologies” during excursion to GFZ Potsdam
Compilation of EQ hazard-related data
Treatment of long-term seismicity data files; elaboration of earthquake data to get harmonized input for PSHA; earthquake catalogues; creation of shakemaps; data pre-processing; Hazard Description for the Project regions |
