Introduction

General Introduction of the Disaster Mitigation Competence Centre (DMCC) could be found at: https://wiki.egi.eu/w/images/5/57/DMCC-InGeneral-201504.pdf

The objective of the this Ccompetence Centre (CC) is to make available customised IT services to support the climate and disaster mitigation researchers to gain a deeper understanding of the most serious natural disasters that affect Asia (e.g. earthquakes, tsunamis, typhoons) and to mitigate multi-hazards via data-intensive, e-Science techniques and collaborations. The task strongly builds on experts from the Asia-Pacific region who will create virtual research environments with embedded services and simulations that enable the sharing of disaster-related data, tools, applications and knowledge among field-workers, scientists, and e-Infrastructure experts, shortening the time they can respond to natural disasters. The CC will have two associated partners, the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre (LRZ, Germany) and University of St. Andrews (UStA, UK) to connect the activities with related projects and initiatives in Europe.

(2) Release gWRF weather simulation web portal
2. PM19: Finish two high risk tsunami subduction zones scenario analysis in Asia Pacific region
3. PM24
(1) Apply WRF/chem tracer modelling study to demonstrate the biomass-burning transport mechanism and its impact on air quality.
(2) Release the prototype of WRF-Noah-UCM on UHI simulation of a city in a partner country
4. PM29: Finish the design larger scale multi-hazards simulation attempting to reduce the uncertainty of climate change assessment

Case Study

Selected cases together with their status are listed as the table below. By combining atmospheric and oceanic models together, the strategy is to reconstruct the whole process of these historical events with higher resolution local data to deeper understand the scientific mechanism behind the earth physical phenomena, and aim for the early warning for future hazardous events.
