1. NATURAL HAZARDS LABORATORY UNIVERSITY OF ATHENS GREECE Natural Hazards Laboratory, Faculty of Geology and Geoenvironment, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens [the oldest (founded in 1837) and biggest (92,000 students and 2,000 staff) in Greece] Specialising in: Geological Hazards: Assessment, Risk and Disaster Management More specifically: Onshore and offshore Neotectonic Maps, Seismic and landslide hazard maps, Active faults and deformation rates, submarine volcanoes and volcanic hazard, high resolution swath bathymetric maps and 3D models etc In-house capacity: 16TRS and 8 Special Laboratory and teaching staff ; 8 Phd and 19Msc Students] TEWS Info Day, 31 Jan 2006, Paris NATURAL HAZARDS LABORATORY NATIONAL AND KAPODISTRIAN UNIVERSITY OF ATHENS MONITORING SESSION

2. Potential Interest/Contribution to TEWS Provide geophysical data for : a) Identification and evaluation of tsunamogenic sources in the East Med and b) Using it as input data for simulation models Developing tsunami scenarios Selecting potential tsunamogenic sources in the East Med. (significant offshore surface faulting, collapses from unstable volcanic flanks and landslides) Selecting sites for implementation of strain meters, acoustic tensors, OBS and BPR Onshore Terrain Models and Offshore hi-resolution bathymetric maps Contact point: [Prof. Dimitrios Papanikolaou, Director] Email: [dpapan@geol.uoa.gr], Tel: [+30 210 7274403]
