Symposium on the “Cooperative Research by Liaison between Hub Institutes”, 2016, “Construction of a New Paradigm for Improving Uncertainty of Risk Evaluation for Large Magnitude Earthquakes”

  • Date : 25 Mar. 2016 - 25 Mar. 2016 09:00 - 18:00 hours
  • Symposium
Date 25 Mar. 2016 - 25 Mar. 2016 09:00 - 18:00 hours
Place Kihada Hall, Kyoto University Uji Campus

The cooperative research by liaison between hub institutes (DPRI-ERI) which is a part of the 5 year project will hold a symposium on the “Promotion of observation and research plan of earth-quakes and volcanos for contributing to mitigation of disasters”. The DPRI-ERI is a project carried out from the beginning of FY2014.

 

Please feel free to join the symposium.
