SZNet Pilot Projects

Interdisciplinary and international field opportunities​​

​

USA and Chile

OBJECTIVES

To develop a cross- trained, international community of scientists while exploroing the effectiveness of planned instrumentation to resolve the questions being posed in the larger SZ4D program.

Description

​WHAT: Two 10-day long pilot studies, one in Cascadia during the U.S. summer of 2026 and the second in Chile in the austral Summer of 2027. These pilot project will feature a field and classroom component, aimed at collecting, compiling and/or processing data through an interdisciplinary lens to answer pressing subduction zone geohazard research questions. Participants will be both US and non-US scientists at a variety of career stages interested in cross-disciplinary approaches to researching subduction systems. Participantswill be selected through open application processes. Please keep an eye out here for updates.

​

GOALS: The SZNet pilot projects aim to developing a cross-trained, international community of scientists and advance our understanding of subduction geohazards through week-long long pilot studies in Cascadia and Chile. These projects will aim to inform future activities such as the planned MultiHazard Array 

​

FUNDING: Funding for participant travel, food, lodging, and field supplies wi available through SZNet which is supported by funding from the National Science Foundation AccelNet program under award 2301732.
