Dear Colleagues,
We would like to announce the call for abstracts for Session 4: "Fault damage zones in active and fossil faults" under the Theme T9 (Structural Geology) of the 37th IGC2024 Congress (August 25-31, 2024 Busan, Republic of Korea). We warmly invite you to submit your contributions to this session. The abstract deadline is February 16, 2024. For details, please visit the following webpage: https://www.igc2024korea.org/ .
Theme T9: Structural Geology
Session 4: Fault damage zones in active and fossil zones
Young-Seog KIM Pukyong - National University, Republic of Korea
Anita TORABI - University of Oslo, Norway
Fabrizio AGOSTA - University of Basilicata, Italy
Active faults are sources of the potential mega-earthquakes and their chained hazards. Both the faulting behaviors of the creep for occurrence of ground fissures or stick-slip for sudden occurrence of mega-earthquakes can cause chained hazards, e.g., the ground subsidence, ground fissures, rising groundwater levels, underground liquefactions, massive landslides, dammed lakes and collapse-caused lower-reach floods, lead to severe damage to infrastructure, buildings, and human lives, and therefore present significant challenges to cities and civilizations worldwide. In the circum-Pacific and the Himalaya-Mediterranean seismic zones, it is crucial to locate active fault, investigate their faulting behavior, 3D monitoring, assess fault seismic risk, implement fault- avoidance measures, and develop prevention strategies to avoid urban potential disasters. It is also essential to examine case studies of urban disasters caused by earthquakes, such as the 1995 Kobe in Japan, the 2010 Haiti earthquake, the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake in China, 2016 Kaikōura earthquake in New Zealand, and 2023 Kahramanmaraş earthquake in Turkey. Technology, such as fault detecting, earthquake monitoring and early warning systems and prevention strategies for urban disasters, plays a critical role. To study these disasters and challenges, experts in geology, seismology, urban planning, and disaster management must collaborate and share their knowledge and experiences. This session aims to bring together such experts to present integrative studies of active faults, seismic zones, urban disasters, and prevention strategies. We welcome oral and poster presentations focused on field observation, data process, analysis, and scene simulation.
