“…Two main challenges are (i) building interdisciplinary groups and ensuring effective interactions between the disciplinary experts, and (ii) engaging with civil society (a structured and sometimes lengthy process) by building trust between scientists and stakeholders (UNDRR, 2022b). Research infrastructures can foster the development of a transdisciplinary research community in the field of disaster risk (Peek et al, 2020) and provide powerful tools (e.g., data, codes, expertise) to research groups (e.g., Folch et al, 2023;Calatrava et al, 2023;Dañobeitia et al, 2020). Access and interaction with research infrastructures should therefore be promoted and encouraged among the disaster risk community to exploit these opportunities.…”

Reducing the seismic risk for societies requires a bridge between scientific knowledge and societal actions. In recent years, three subjects that facilitate this connection gained growing importance: open science, transdisciplinarity, and ethics. We outline their relevance in general and specifically at the example of `'dynamic seismic risk' as explored in a dedicated workshop. We argue that these reflections can be transferred to other research fields for improving their practical and societal relevance. We provide recommendations for scientists at all levels to make science more open, transdisciplinary, and ethical. Only with a transition can we, as scientists, address current societal challenges and increase societies' resilience to disasters.

“…The resulting data are then transferred and stored in cloud-storage services offered by the EGI-DataHub. The Data Management Plan (DMP) serves as the primary resource that integrates all the requirements for implementing the Open Science paradigm within LAGO [7]. It guarantees adherence to the Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, and Reusability (FAIR) principles for the results and establishes the format of the data and metadata, as well as the protocol for generating, storing, and accessing the results [5].…”

The Latin American Giant Observatory (LAGO) is an extensive network of water Cherenkov detectors spread across Latin America, functioning as an astroparticle observatory. With its broad range of altitudes and geomagnetic rigidity cut-offs, the primary focus of LAGO's scientific program is to study space weather, climate phenomena, and high-energy astrophysical transients from ground level. To bolster these programs, the comprehensive simulation framework of ARTI and onedataSim was developed. This framework enables the calculation of the total secondary particle flux and the corresponding signals expected in various types of detectors operating anywhere in the world. It also incorporates the effects of real-time atmospheric and geomagnetic conditions, both secular and disturbed. These tools harness the expanding computational capabilities of highperformance computing facilities and cloud-based computing environments. By integrating these tools and infrastructures, we have managed to extend the total integration times of the background flux and the energy range of atmospheric neutrons. In this contribution, we illustrate how this intricate simulation sequence aids in achieving LAGO's scientific objectives. We also explore other applications, such as estimating the expected dose on board commercial flights, simulating the muon flux for muography studies, determining the distribution of neutrons in nuclear and medical facilities, and estimating the rate of errors produced by atmospheric neutrons in the upcoming generation of exascale supercomputing centers worldwide.

The article outlines the role of e-infrastructures in supporting scientific activities and discusses the challenges and prospects associated with their utilization. In the digital world, e-infrastructures play a crucial role in facilitating access to scientific information, enabling data sharing, and fostering collaboration among research communities. An overview of the main types of e-infrastructures in Ukraine, such as the Ukrainian National Grid (UNG), Ukrainian Research and Academic Network (URAN), GÉANT, and the National Repository of Academic Texts (NRAT), is provided, along with their key characteristics. The main advantages of utilizing e-infrastructures to support and conduct scientific research can be summarized as follows: access to infrastructure and resources, support for various scientific fields, collaboration and cooperation, high productivity and efficiency, integration with international initiatives, ensuring security and confidentiality, and fostering the development of the national scientific and technological community. The primary functions of e-infrastructures are described. Emphasis is placed on the significant impact of e-infrastructures on the scientific community, including notable changes in the organization and communication among researchers facilitated by e-infrastructures. Currently, interaction between scientific fields and communities takes place through e-infrastructures platforms. The experience of the article’s authors in popularizing digital services and e-infrastructures through the organization of scientific mass events for Ukrainian scientists is described. Emphasis is placed on the increased utilization of e-infrastructures by researchers and students, as well as their understanding of the potential for enhancing the efficiency and quality of scientific research.
