It would be great to have experimental site users presenting comparisons between simulation and experimental results. </p><p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p class="MsoNormal">The symposium will be a good chance for the natural hazards research community to meet together. Note that already being a user of SimCenter tools is certainly not a requirement to attend and present research, so please circulate to anyone that may be interested. </p><p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p
