| Summary: | The state of Alaska and Arctic in general have experienced thousands of earthquakes every year, including historical major events that have disrupted and severely damaged infrastructure and lifeline networks. Given the accelerating environmental, ecological, and social changes as the Arctic climate warms, including changes in soil properties, it is critical to understand how infrastructure and society respond to seismic events. Seismic assessments of infrastructure, post-earthquake recovery, and future planning must simultaneously consider natural environment, built infrastructure, and social systems. Resilient infrastructure linked with social systems is crucial to the state of Alaska and beyond, which will impact the regions' economic competitiveness, national security, and residents' safety and health. The 1st International Workshop on Seismic Resilience of Arctic Infrastructure and Social Systems brought together roughly 50 researchers and stakeholders from different parts of the world with convergent ... |
