Real-time hazard tools (JRA2)

Develop new approaches to time-dependent earthquake hazard assessment and earthquake forecasting in the Euro-Med region. Create a sustainable and community supported platform for testing forecast models. Coordinator: Stefan Wiemer, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH), Zürich, Switzerland.

Developments
The group has formed strategic alliances with WP5 in the SAFER project and with the global Collaboratory for the Study of Earthquake Predictability (CSEP).
