2. Plate Tectonics GFZ, Potsdam

3. Distribution of Large Earthquakes and Earthquakes Accompanied with Tsunami with Tsunami greater than M6.0

4. Tsunami probability based on historic data F. Schindele, CEA

5. 1965: IOC established the International Coordination Group for the Tsunami Warning System in the Pacific Ocean (PTWS) following th valdivia (1960) and Alaska (1964) tsunamis

6. 28 member States (2005): Australia, Canada, Chile, China, Colombia, Cook Islands, Costa Rica, Democratic People's Republic of Korea, Ecuador, El Salvador, Fiji, France, Guatemala, Indonesia, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, Nicaragua, Peru, Philippines, Republic of Korea, Russian Federation, Singapore, Thailand, United States, Samoa. Successful Operational Tsunami Warning System > 40 yrs Well recognised international scientific program Pacific Basin monitoring of seismicity and sea levels Direct humanitarian aim Mitigate tsunami effects - save lives/property IOC ICG/PTWS

8. After the December 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami and immediate response of the UN and Governments March & April 2005: Two International Coordination meetings (Paris and Mauritius) for the Development of an Indian Ocean TWS

9. June 21-30, 2005: the 23 rd IOC Assembly approved resolutions for the establishment of a global strategy and three regional Intergovernmental Coordination Groups on TEWS (XXIII-12 to XXXIII-15) for – the Indian Ocean (ICG/IOTWS) – the Caribbean (ICG/CARIBE-EWS) – the NE Atlantic and Mediterranean (ICG/NEAMTWS)

13. IO initial System for July 2006 Based on Existing: Network of 26(29) National Information Centres [24/7] Fast Track implementations of projects to upgrade existing seismographic network improve existing sea-level network (key stations with 1min data transmission interval) upgrade data and information communication system

14. Agreed Seismographic Stations

18. The Challenge for the IO We essentially know what is needed at the country level in 16 countries and this work will be completed in 2006 for the rest. ICG/IOTWS is requesting a comprehensive Plan, incl. the country level the need of the development of the National Plans

19. Necessary Elements for Determination of Earthquake Location and Magnitude Arrival Time of Seismic Waves (P and/or S waves) Location (Latitude, Longitude and Depth) Maximum Amplitude of Seismic Waves Magnitude P arrival S arrival Maximum Amplitude Seismic Wave

20. LISS/IRIS Waveforms: Large Earthquake 5minutes data loss There are about 20~30% stations JMA could not receive complete waveform data. SAML TRQA RCBR DWPF BBSR PTCN WVT Station Map PS PS PS P P P P SAML TRQA RCBR DWPF BBSR PTCN WVT （ Chile M7.8, July 13, 2005 ）

23. Data Transmission Delay CTBTO/IMS : 30 seconds at most LISS :100 seconds on average IRIS :180 seconds on average

24. Earthquake Detection and Delay LPAZ (Earliest CTBTO/IMS station) Earthquake Detection at JMA (30 seconds delay) Earthquake Detection at JMA (100 seconds delay) Seismic wave arrived at the CTBTO/IMS earliest station 110 seconds earlier than at LISS earliest station. JMA could detect the earthquake by the CTBTO/IMS station 180 seconds earlier than by the LISS station. SAML (Earliest LISS station) （ Chile M7.8, July 13, 2005 ）
