AI-Powered Dynamical Monitoring of Volcanic and Landslide Hazards Using Multi-Sensor PSInSAR

Prime company: THALES SERVICES NUMERIQUES S.A.S (FR)

Context and Motivation: Volcanic eruptions and landslides represent significant hazards on population safety and health. For instance, exposure to major eruptions is of critical societal and economic concern due to release of large quantities of harmful gases (carbon/sulfur dioxides, hydrogen sulfide, halogens) and ashes. Such emissions impact human health, agriculture, infrastructure, as well as the …

AMHEI – Advancing Multi-Hazard Understanding in Earthquake-Affected Regions

Prime company: British Geological Survey – BGS (GB)

AMHEI aims to revolutionize multi-hazard assessment by developing AI-driven models to better understand long-term hazards scenarios associated to landslides, floods and earthquakes. While most research has focused on single hazards as standalone event or short-term impact following major earthquakes or floods, AMHEI seeks to fill a critical gap by investigating the long-term assessment of hazards …

Can AI enhance climate extremes prediction?

Climate extremes, including heatwaves, droughts, and storms, have severe societal impacts, making reliable predictions crucial in a warming world. The demand for accurate forecasts, particularly on timescales ranging from weeks to decades, is growing among policymakers and stakeholders. However, traditional climate models face limitations in predicting such events due to the inherent complexity of weather …

EO4FLOOD

Prime company: CNR-RESEARCH INSTITUTE FOR GEO-HYDROLOGICAL PROTECTION – IRPI (IT)

Floods rank among the most destructive natural disasters, causing significant harm to human health, the environment, cultural heritage, and economies. In Europe alone, floods have led to approximately 4,000 fatalities and $274 billion in economic losses over the past 50 years, with even more severe impacts in developing countries. As climate change accelerates the frequency …
