One of them promised to contact the  commission created to coordinate natural desasters crisis. &lt;br /&gt;If they find interesting the project, then we have opportunity to  succeed. Otherwise not. By the way, did you mention me that you have  contacts with this commission? &lt;br /&gt;Will you attend the conf. call tomorrow at 12h or at 14h30? &lt;br /&gt;Best regards &lt;br /&gt;Manel &lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;og_rss_groups&quot;&gt;&lt;ul class=&quot;links&quot;&gt;&lt;li  class=&quot;first last og_links&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/content/secnatzards-ca&quot; class=&quot;og_links&quot;&gt;SEC-NATZARDS CA&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

- security implications of global climate change;&lt;br /&gt;
- climate change: challenges for global governance;&lt;br /&gt;
- technological responses to climate change;&lt;br /&gt;
- municipalities and climate change: responsibility and opportunity.&lt;br /&gt;

 <title>Conference on Mediterranean Storms in Nicosia 22-24 September 2008</title>
 <link>http://ecentres.net/content/conference-mediterranean-storms-nicosia-2224-september-2008</link>
 <description>&lt;div class=&quot;event-nodeapi&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;event-start&quot;&gt;&lt;label&gt;Start: &lt;/label&gt;2008-09-22 00:00&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;event-nodeapi&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;event-end&quot;&gt;&lt;label&gt;End: &lt;/label&gt;2008-09-24 00:00&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;
&lt;b&gt;The 10th Plinius Conference on Mediterranean Storms will take place in Nicosia, Cyprus, from 22 to 24 September.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Its objective is to provide an interdisciplinary forum for discussion of the present state of knowledge as well as the necessary advances in research and application disciplines related to Mediterranean storms, such as: the nature and physical processes of these extreme events; expected changes in relationship to predicted climate changes; advanced techniques to observe, monitor and forecast these storms; their relationships to coupled surface processes and effects, with particular emphasis on damaging floods and landslides; and finally the socio-economical implications of these storms.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In keeping with these more general issues, the conference&#039;s session will address 12 more specific topics:&lt;br /&gt;
- climate change and extreme events;&lt;br /&gt;
- storm processes;&lt;br /&gt;
- mesoscale modelling;&lt;br /&gt;
- remote sensing&lt;br /&gt;
- &#039;nowcasting&#039;;&lt;br /&gt;
- operational meteorological forecasting;&lt;br /&gt;
- rainfall downscaling;&lt;br /&gt;
- soil-vegetation-atmosphere interactions;&lt;br /&gt;
- hydrological processes;&lt;br /&gt;
- operational hydrological forecasting&lt;br /&gt;
- prediction and effects of rainfall-induced landslides;&lt;br /&gt;
- societal impacts and responses.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During the conference, two prizes will be awarded to the best contribution (either oral or poster) presented by young researchers. The goal of this prize is to foster innovative research on the understanding and prediction of Mediterranean storms and their ground effects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

 <title>Natural Hazards/Disasters RTD general information</title>
 <link>http://ecentres.net/node/994</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;margin: 0pt&quot;&gt;Recent local and transnational disasters have demonstrated to the European Commission and the Member States of the European Union the paramount importance of efficient risk management. The prevention and response to such natural disasters request more and more to pool efforts and competencies from different thematic sectors and technical disciplines of the individual EU Member States towards a common action. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style=&quot;margin: 0pt&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style=&quot;margin: 0pt&quot;&gt;The Action focusses on the development of a better capacity for early warning, monitoring and damage assessment systems for weather-driven natural hazards, as well as for tools for assessing climate change effects, land use change effects, risk mapping and adaptation (prevention and reduction) to extreme events driven by the current climate and expected changes in climate. Modelling is given specific attention with respect to the occurrence of natural events such as floods and droughts, for example in support of the Flood Action Programme. The Action items are geared towards the provision of direct support to the Community civil protection mechanisms and to interventions by the Solidarity Fund. They are also linked to the development of the Global Monitoring for Environment and Security (GMES) services. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style=&quot;margin: 0pt&quot;&gt;Models and systems developed within this Action are:&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style=&quot;margin: 0pt&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style=&quot;margin: 0pt&quot;&gt;¤ &lt;strong&gt;LISFLOOD&lt;/strong&gt; – a catchment hydrological modeling system&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style=&quot;margin: 0pt&quot;&gt;¤ &lt;strong&gt;EFAS&lt;/strong&gt; – the European Flood Alert System &lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style=&quot;margin: 0pt&quot;&gt;¤ &lt;strong&gt;MOLAND&lt;/strong&gt; – a land use simulation model&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style=&quot;margin: 0pt&quot;&gt;¤ &lt;strong&gt;EDO&lt;/strong&gt; – a European Drought Observatory &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style=&quot;margin: 0pt&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;og_rss_groups&quot;&gt;&lt;ul class=&quot;links&quot;&gt;&lt;li  class=&quot;first last og_links&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/content/secnatzards-ca&quot; class=&quot;og_links&quot;&gt;SEC-NATZARDS CA&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

 <title>SEC-1 EC feedback</title>

 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Dear Manel, &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Thank you for submitting your ideas to our programme! Nevertheless, the purpose of CAs and SSAs is to promote and support the ad hoc networking and co-ordination of research and innovation activities at national, regional and European level over a fixed period for a specific purpose. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;1. which is the research to be coordinated and how? The action seems to be about identifying best practices in the area and, as such, does not fit with the joint call &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;We intend to find out the impact of the security measures applied to  critical infrastructures, mainly its impact to guarantee its continuity  of service to the Society. &lt;br /&gt;Traditionally the Risk Analysis apply economical criteria to select the  security mechanisms, but in Critical infrastructures, the service to the  citizens may be of special relevance, as is the case of regulatory or  legal constraints. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;2. Our work programme explicitly states also &amp;quot;metrics and benchmarks in support of certification and standardisation&amp;quot;. Which standardisation activities do you promote? &lt;br /&gt;   &lt;/blockquote&gt;The outcome of the project will be contributions and recommendations to  ISO 27000 series of standards: &lt;br /&gt;27004, Measurements &lt;br /&gt;27011, Telecommunications &lt;br /&gt;27031, IT Disaster Recovery &lt;br /&gt;27032, Cibersecurity &lt;br /&gt;27033, IT Network security &lt;br /&gt;Let&amp;#39;s discuss it in Leon again? &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Thank you,  Yours sincerely,   &lt;br /&gt;-Yves Paindaveine   &lt;br /&gt;The views expressed above are purely those of the writer and may not in any circumstances be regarded as stating an official position of the European Commission.
