The EU has published a Call for Proposals within the IST Priority of FP6, related to Tsunami Early Warning Systems (TEWS)
This will be the last Call under the IST Priority of FP6.
The aim is to develop, validate and
demonstrate advanced systems and services to manage geo-physical risks,
with a focus on developing an early warning and alert capacity for
improved disaster prevention and preparedness in coastal zones. The
objective is to establish operational prototypes for tsunami detection,
early warning and alert relevant to the main tsunami-prone regions in
the Atlantic and Mediterranean, and Indian Ocean.
