Session Proposal: Advancing Solid Earth Hazard Assessment Using Integrated Digital Twin Approaches (AGU25)

NH003
Advancing Solid Earth Hazard Assessment Using Integrated Digital Twin Approaches

Session ID#: 249382

Session Description:
Solid Earth hazards such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and tsunami pose severe risks, necessitating enhanced modeling and mitigation strategies. Digital twins (DTs) - advanced computational frameworks combining near real-time data assimilation, multi-scale physics-based modeling, and machine learning - offer new capabilities for understanding and forecasting these complex hazards. This session explores cutting-edge developments in DT applications, emphasizing integration across observational, experimental, and computational geosciences. We invite presentations addressing physics-based modeling techniques, data-driven methodologies, uncertainty quantification strategies, and case studies demonstrating DT effectiveness in real-world hazard assessment. Contributions are encouraged from seismology, volcanology, hydrothermal systems, geodynamics, engineering, data science, and computational infrastructure, highlighting advancements and implications for societal resilience. We specifically welcome discussion on computational efficiency, scalability, and interdisciplinary collaboration enabled by High-Performance Computing workflows. DTs require the synthesis of observational data, multi-physics modeling techniques including the development of simplified surrogate models, and large-scale uncertainty quantification to achieve predictive breakthroughs.
