Subject: LHP Seminar, Wed. (June 10): Sabrina Martinez and Liam Toney presenting on semi-automatic landslide detection in Puerto Rico and rock-ice avalanche dynamics in Alaska

Hi Folks,

The LHP Seminar will meet (virtually, via Microsoft Teams) this week on Wednesday, June 10th @ 1500 Mountain time.

Our very own Sabrina Martinez<https://www.linkedin.com/in/geo-sabrina/> and Liam Toney<https://liam.earth/> have offered to tag team this Wednesday's meeting!

Semi-automatic landslide detection using Sentinel-2 imagery: case study in the Añasco River watershed, Puerto Rico (Sabrina Martinez):
The increasing availability and spatiotemporal resolution of satellite imagery has propelled efforts to use this imagery to automatically detect landslides. Many of the proposed detection workflows require specialized software making them inaccessible for many geoscientists. In this study, we assess the performance of accessible algorithms in detecting landslides using multi-temporal satellite imagery.

Reconstructing the dynamics of the highly-similar May 2016 and June 2019 Iliamna Volcano, Alaska ice–rock avalanches from seismoacoustic data (Liam Toney):
Iliamna Volcano (Alaska) is a glacier-mantled stratovolcano which experiences frequent, large ice and rock avalanches. In this study we use seismic and acoustic waves to characterize the dynamics of two particularly large — and strikingly similar — events via inversion and qualitative analysis.

Hope you can join us!
