4 Quantifying long- and short-term volcanic hazard. Erice, 6-8 Nov. 2006 INGV What is BET? BET (Bayesian Event Tree)statistical code eruption forecasting (BET_EF) (BET_VH)epistemicaleatory BET (Bayesian Event Tree) is a new statistical code to estimate and visualize short- to long-term eruption forecasting (BET_EF) and volcanic hazard (BET_VH) and relative uncertainties (epistemic and aleatory) BET Output: BET Output: Time and space evolution of the probability function of each specific event in which we are interested in. BET Input: BET Input: Volcanological data, models, and/or expert opinion. These data are provided by the end-user. BET transforms these information into probabilities

35 Quantifying long- and short-term volcanic hazard. Erice, 6-8 Nov. 2006 INGV  BET is a transparent tool to calculate and to visualize probabilities related to eruption forecasting/hazard assessment  BET “dynamically” manages long-term (land use planning of the territory) and short-term (during emergency to help managing of short-term actions, e.g., evacuation) probabilities for each kind of possible event  BET considers all of the available (and relevant) information (models, state of the volcano, geologic/volcanologic/historic data, monitoring observations, expert elicitation); the output is the quantitative merging of all of them  BET takes properly into account the epistemic and aleatory uncertainties. This allows to highlight what we know and what we do not know about the system, indicating future possible works to improve the scheme  BET uses fuzzy logic to manage monitoring measurements smooth transitions in probability and overcome single threshold definition Points to take home
