The call-for-abstracts of EGU General Assembly 2026 is open! EGU26 will be held in Vienna, Austria, and online on 3–8 May 2026.
Don’t miss the chance to submit an abstract to the session, “The use of monitoring, modelling, and forecasting in Landslide Early Warning Systems“.

This session focuses on LEWS at all scales and stages of maturity, from prototype to active and dismissed ones. Test cases describing operational application of consolidated approaches are welcome, as well as works dealing with promising recent innovations, even if still at an experimental stage.
Contributions addressing the following topics will be considered positively:
– real-time monitoring systems (IoT);
– prediction tools for warning purposes;
– in-situ monitoring instruments and/or remote sensing devices;
– analysis of hydro-meteorological drivers to enhance forecasting;
– warning models for issuing warning;
– operational applications and performance analyses;
– machine learning techniques applied for early warning purposes.

The abstract submission deadline is 15 January 2026, 13:00 CET.

On-site participants who wish to apply for Roland Schlich travel support must submit an abstract by 1 December 2025, 13:00 CET. They must be the contact author and the first and presenting author of their contribution.

Conveners: Luca Piciullo, Lisa Luna, Stefano Luigi Gariano, Ting Xiao, Samuele Segoni

The 5th Annual Meeting of the Mediterranean Geosciences Union (MedGU25) will be held on 10–13 November 2025 in Athens, Greece, hosted by the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens.

Among several engaging sessions, a Special session on Landslides (Landslides: Processes, Hazard, and Risk) is organized by Tolga Görüm, Ugur Öztürk, Stefano Luigi Gariano, and George Papathanassiou. Among these broad themes, we want to particularly emphasize landslide prediction and early warning.

Hence, we invite you to submit an abstract to this MedGU25 special session.

The abstract submission deadline (1 page / max. 350 words) using this Template is August 25, 2025.
