3rd. DAM Mission sponsored project: Understanding extreme marine events and natural hazards in Europe
MULTI-MAREX: A real-life laboratory for improved forecasting and possible actions for multiple extreme geomarine events.
As part of the research mission ‘Marine Extreme Events and Natural Hazards’ of the German Marine Research Alliance (DAM), the joint project MULTI-MAREX will establish a real laboratory for the investigation of marine geological extreme events and associated hazards in Greece. Extreme geomarine events, including earthquakes and volcanogenic or seismogenic tsunamis and their cascading events, have serious short- and long-term consequences for coastal communities. Early warning and disaster prevention pose both societal and political challenges for which the joint project is developing the necessary expertise to deal with these hazards at various levels.
The MULTI-MAREX joint project will create a real-world laboratory for investigating extreme geological events and associated hazards in order to develop the knowledge required to deal with these hazards at various levels.
