![Several countries have early
warning systems based on seasonal-
to-inter annual climate forecasts.
[2] These systems are based on
using monitoring data, including
temperature and rainfall values, and
state-of-the art climate models.
Climatologists analyse the
observations and model-based
predictions to predict climate
anomalies one or two seasons
ahead.

Early warning and communication team
- 1. Early warning and communication team
- 2. CONTENTS : Early warning systems towards professionals Early warning systems towards the population Public information system Operative information:
- 3. Early warning systems towards professionals The Crisis Management Center of the Ministry of Emergency Situations, 112 Call Center and Chief Department of Early Warning of Emergency Situations is responsible for Early Warning activities and The Ministry of Ecology and Natural Resources is responsible for hydro- meteorological observations, prognosis and warnings.
- 4. Early warning systems towards the population The local population is informed by the local media (e.g. radio stations, TV stations, newspapers and the internet). Local media is used not only to alert the population of hazards, but also to pass on recommendations of conduct, which should be followed in case of hazards. The Ministry of Emergency Situations organizes workshops, public enlightenment campaigns on raising public awareness in the fields of prevention, preparedness and response to emergencies . During the workshops and campaigns, leaflets, brochures of different topics with guidelines are distributed to the public and special audiovisual materials are broadcasted by the mass media

- 6. Satellite communication technology Improvements in satellite communication have helped decrease the lag time between data collection and warning. For example, the Pacific Tsunami Warning System works by a recorder on the seabed relaying data on anomalies to a buoy on the surface. This data is then transmitted via satellite to ground stations every 15 seconds.
- 7. ICTs for crowd sourcing The use of crowd sourced data is gaining traction with increasing Internet connectivity and use of information and communication technologies (ICTs) such as mobile phones .Crowd sourcing was used extensively in the response to the 2010 Haiti earthquake, allowing local people, mapping experts and other stakeholders to communicate what they saw and heard on the ground, and to produce information that could be used by humanitarian workers. This was particularly useful in locating survivors who needed assistance, but it is increasingly recognized That crowd sourcing could also help with pre-disaster activities, specifically risk identification and early warning
- 8. Need for Disaster Relief & Early Warning Disaster results in loss of human lives & displacement of millions of people Communication system can play a great role to provide early warning and disaster relief Early warning is a key element for disaster prevention and reducing loss of human lives from view point of victims Disaster relief can make victims to capture the correct information on rescue parties, relief supplies, damage situation and safe confirmation. And also it can provide their friends and relatives with the situation of individual victim
