Description: Real-time high-rate GPS data, high-dynamic-range broadband seismic stations, and numerical models have recently provided valuable insights to volcanic/seismic deformation and tsunami genesis, greatly improving rapid assessment of immediate crustal activities, tsunami threat, physical understanding, and identification of new data types for tsunami warning systems. This session will address current capabilities, progresses and future directions/challenges for effectively using high-rate GPS and seismic observations in monitoring volcanic/seismic activities (e.g. post-seismic stress transfer), and modeling tsunamis for early warnings. This session also welcomes submissions that combine high-rate GPS with GRACE, SAR and satellite altimetry data for monitoring, comparing and calibration, as well as propose new applications for these observations, and present future missions/challenges.
