*Geo-Extreme 2021 *aims to create a multi-disciplinary forum to discuss how
the geo-engineering community can work with other professionals, e.g.,
climate scientists, engineers, emergency managers, resilience and
sustainability investigators, insurance experts, and policy makers, to cope
with extreme events (such as hurricanes, floods, extreme precipitations,
droughts, wildfires, debris flows, earthquakes, tsunamis, landslides) under
a changing climate.



The Conference Organizing Committee is planning a technical program that
includes state-of-the-art contributions addressing all facets pertaining to
the challenges and opportunities that the engineering profession faces
dealing with extreme events in the face of climate change. Submissions in
different forms (*paper abstracts, technical session proposals, panel
proposals, and short course proposals*) are solicited on various topics
related to the main theme of the conference.



· Abstracts are due *June 19 *and may be only submitted via the online
CATALYST Submission System at:

https://catalyst.omnipress.com/asce_geo-extreme2021





We invite you to consider participating in this event through
submitting an *abstract
and/or proposal*. Further, it would be greatly appreciated if you
distribute this Call for Submissions
<https://www.geoinstitute.org/sites/default/files/inline-files/Geo-Extreme%202021%20Call%20for%20Submissions%20Final_1.pdf>
