EU Knowledge Base, Onthology

Worldclim Worldclim is a set of global climate layers (grids) on a square kilometer grid. The last version released (March 2004) is Version 1.2. The data layers were generated through interpolation of average monthly climate data from weather stations on a 30 arc-second resolution grid (often referred to as "1 km²" resolution). Variables included are monthly total precipitation, and monthly mean, minimum and maximum temperature, and 19 derived bioclimatic variables.

EU Knowledge Base, Onthology Historical Earthquake Catalogues Knowledge of the geological history of the region and the tectonic conditions, earthquake catalogues are a prerequisite for a statistical analysis. Such catalogues of seismic events should be as complete as possible and cover a wide area and a long period of time. Written records of the effects of earthquakes are collected and evaluated, and earthquake parameters, such as location of the epicenter and epicentral intensity, are determined. The results of these studies are compiled in computerized earthquake catalogues.

EU Know How, Onthology

Conclusions We need International Collaboration The international Partners are well equipped with projects and funds 6FP has left our research alone If the situation does not change soon we will fall back dramatically and cannot take the responsibility for the citizens Can EUROPE really afford this ? Thank you for the attention !
