Int’l Symposium on Seismic Risk, Urbanization, and Resilience (SURE-MED)
2025-10-27 - 2025-10-29 | Constantine, Constantine, Algeria
The International Symposium on Seismic Risk, Urbanization, and Resilience (SURE-MED) 2025, will take place in Constantine, Algeria, from 27-29 October 2025. This event commemorates 40 years since the 1985 Constantine earthquake and aims to advance seismic resilience in the Western Mediterranean.
It includes a one-day, post-meeting field trip to the Tell Atlas on October 29, 2025, focusing on active faults, morphotectonics, and geohazards in the Constantine Basin (NE Algeria), including the archaeological site of Tiddis. The symposium also features dynamic sessions, hands-on workshops, and an exhibition, fostering collaboration among seismologists, engineers, and urban planners.

2. Bridging the Gaps: Advances in Paleoseismology across Marine, Lacustrine, and Terrestrial Environments
Session Conveners: Brunet, M. (ISMER – Université du Québec à Rimouski); St-Onge, G. (ISMER – Université du Québec à Rimouski); Rizza, M. (Université du Québec à Montréal); Lajeunesse, P. (Université Laval, Québec)
Reconstructing the history of past earthquakes across multiple environments is key to understanding fault behavior and improving seismic hazard assessments in diverse tectonic settings. From continental faults to lacustrine basins and deep-marine trenches, each environment holds unique, yet complementary archives that collectively address the challenges of modern paleoseismology. Integrating these different archives remains a major challenge, but also a crucial opportunity to build fundamental understanding of rupture processes, earthquake recurrence, and associated hazards. This session aims to bring together researchers studying terrestrial, lacustrine, and marine archives to share methodological advances, case studies, and conceptual frameworks that connect across environments. We particularly encourage contributions that integrate multi-proxy approaches – including sedimentology, geophysics, geochronology, and numerical modeling – to reconstruct past seismic events and their cascading effects, providing new insights into recurrence intervals, rupture patterns, and multi-hazard interactions.We welcome studies conducted in Canada and worldwide. A key goal of this session is to serve as a platform to foster interdisciplinary discussions among “land-to-sea” researchers – especially early-career scientists – to bridge methodological gaps and strengthen lasting collaborations across environments.

7th Fault2SHA Workshop on “New Frontiers in Earthquake Rupture Forecasting and Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Assessment (PSHA)”
2026-07-06 - 2026-07-08 | Uni Vienna, Vienna, Austria
This workshop will focus on evolving methodologies in earthquake rupture forecasting, multi-cycle earthquake simulators, and their integration into probabilistic seismic hazard assessment. It will provide a unique opportunity to discuss innovative approaches, share experiences, and foster interdisciplinary collaborations within the community.

The program will feature five keynote speakers, leading experts in their respective fields, who will share cutting-edge insights and perspectives on the future of earthquake science and seismic hazard assessment.
