Following on the steps of the successful Geo-Extreme 2021, this conference aims at creating a multi-disciplinary forum where 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 properly cope with man-made and natural extreme events (such as hurricanes, floods, extreme precipitations, droughts, wildfires, debris flows, earthquakes, tsunamis, landslides) under a changing climate. The Wednesday morning plenary will focus on mega landslides.

Presenters:
Andrew D. Kost, Conforth Consultants, Inc
Neven Matasovic, Geo-Logic Associates, Inc.
Timothy D. Stark, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign
