Real-time monitoring, analysis, and prediction of seismic ground motion and crustal movement are expected to be powerful tools for earthquake, tsunami and volcano disaster preparedness/mitigation. They have been applied to Tsunami and Earthquake Early Warnings. In the field of volcano, JMA has recently started to provide Eruption Notice to inform people of volcanic eruptions promptly. After the 2011 Tohoku Earthquake (Mw9.0) and other events, however, some weak points were revealed in the techniques. In this session, we will discuss new ideas, methods and applications of the (near) real-time data analysis of seismic, geodetic and volcanic data, as well as real-time prediction aiming at disaster preparedness/mitigation in the field of earthquake, tsunami and volcanoes.
