[ghsc-seminars] Seminar Wed. June 3: Deep Learning as a tool to forecast landslide hazards

[Rengers, Francis K]

Hi everyone,

The GHSC seminar has been on hiatus for a while.  However, Matt Thomas has cultivated a very active seminar for the Landslide Hazards program.  Therefore, we are going to benefit from Matt’s effort by offering an opportunity for everyone in the GHSC to participate in the landslide seminar this week that Matt has organized. Here is the information:

We will be hosting a joint LHP (Landslide Hazards Program) and GHSC (Geologic Hazards Science Center) Seminar virtually, via Microsoft Teams, this week on Wednesday, June 3rd @ 1500 Mountain time.

Eli Orland<https://earthsciences.uoregon.edu/profile/eorland/>, University of Oregon:
"We demonstrate the efficacy of Deep Learning as a tool to forecast landslide hazards, and provide the framework for a practical coupling of Deep Learning with landslide early warning systems using USGS data. Our model serves as a foundation for future efforts to deliver landslide hazard assessments in real time to at risk communities, offering accurate predictions of soil moisture conditions that help capture the unknown complexity of 3-D unsaturated flow in varied landscapes.”'

Hope you can join us!
