Advanced PRocedures for volcanIc and Seismic Monitoring (APHORISM)

Start date: Dec 1, 2013, End date: Nov 30, 2016,

APHORISM project proposes the development and testing of two new methods to combine Earth Observation satellite data from different sensors, and ground data. The aim is to demonstrate that this two types of data, appropriately managed and integrated, can provide new improved Copernicus products useful for seismic and volcanic crisis management.The first method, APE – A Priori information for Earth ...

Rapid Analysis and Spatialisation Of Risk (RASOR) (RASOR)

Start date: Nov 11, 2013, End date: Jun 1, 2016,

The Rapid Analysis and Spatialisation Of Risk (RASOR) project will develop a platform to perform multi-hazard risk analysis to support the full cycle of disaster management, including targeted support to critical infrastructure monitoring and climate change impact assessment, exploiting internally produced and available services. RASOR adapts the newly developed 12m resolution TanDEM-X Digital Ele ...

MEDiterranean SUpersite Volcanoes (MED-SUV)

Start date: Jun 1, 2013, End date: May 31, 2016,

This project will improve the consortium capacity of assessment of volcanic hazards in Supersites of Southern Italy by optimising and integrating existing and new observation/monitoring systems, by a breakthrough in understanding of volcanic processes and by increasing the effectiveness of the coordination between the scientific and end-user communities. More than 3 million of people are exposed t ...

Virtual Earthquake and seismology Research Community in Europe e-science environment (VERCE)

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2015,

The earthquake and seismology research, an intrinsically Global undertaking, addresses both fundamental problems in understanding Earth's internal wave sources and structures, and augment applications to societal concerns about natural hazards, energy resources, environmental change, and national security. This community is central in the European Plate Observing System (EPOS), the ESFRI initiativ ...

InteGrated Laboratories to investigate the mechanics of ASeismic vs. Seismic faulting (GLASS)

Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Sep 30, 2015,

Earthquakes are potentially catastrophic phenomena that have a huge impact on the environment and society. Understanding the physical processes responsible for earthquakes and faulting requires high quality data and direct observations of the underlying phenomena. However, no direct measurements can be made at depth where earthquakes initiate and propagate. Our knowledge of the mechanical properti ...

EUropean DATa (EUDAT)

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Mar 31, 2015,

EUDAT is our proposal for the next stage in the realisation of the vision of "data as infrastructure". The EUDAT consortium includes representatives from each stage of the value chain that has evolved to deliver scientific knowledge to researchers, citizens, industry and society as a whole. It includes funding agencies that invest in research infrastructures and programmes of research, infrastruct ...

European Plate Observing System (EPOS)

Start date: Nov 1, 2010, End date: Oct 31, 2014,

To understand the complex Earth System requires an integrated observational strategy and infrastructure to record key diagnostic features of its dynamics. Accordingly, this infrastructure must include geographically distributed and multidisciplinary monitoring instruments and observations. The European Plate Observing System (EPOS) will meet this challenge. The proposed RI (EPOS) will create a sin ...

Uncovering the Secrets of an Earthquake: Multidisciplinary Study of Physico-Chemical Processes During the Seismic Cycle (USEMS)

Start date: Jun 1, 2008, End date: May 31, 2013,

"Southern Europe and Turkey lie within the highest seismic risk areas in the world. Understanding the physico-chemical processes controlling earthquake generation is essential in seismic hazard assessment. Destructive earthquakes nucleate at depth (10-15 km), therefore monitoring active faults at the Earth’s surface, or interpreting seismic waves, yields only limited information on earthquake mech ...
