RAMON-VALENCIA, Jacipt Alexander; PALACIOS-GONZALEZ, Jordi Rafael; SANTOS-GRANADOS, German Ricardo e RAMON-VALENCIA, Jarol Derley. Early warning system on extreme weather events for disaster risk reduction. Rev.fac.ing.univ. Antioquia [online]. 2019, n.92, pp.80-87. ISSN 0120-6230. https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.redin.20190628.
The objective of this research was to propose a strategy based on the design and implementation of an early warning system (EWS) for extreme weather events. This project had the following phases: training for municipal and regional actors, preliminary technical diagnosis of the study areas, monitoring network, and the weather forecasts using numerical models WRF and GFS. This EWS is the result of the Macro-project EWS for Climate Events in the basins of the Pamplonita River and Zulia in the North of Santander (SATC), executed by the University of Pamplona and financed by the National Risk Management Unit (UNGRD) and the German Cooperation Agency (GIZ). The research concluded that the application of a disaster risk reduction strategy through an EWS for extreme weather events is an important tool and instrument for the planning of higher risk management because it helps anticipate disasters and consequently preserve lives.
