The project supported PTT research on precipitation forecast-based river runoff-reservoir inflow forecasting by improving quality of precipitation forecasts with the use of bias correction techniques. Key activities included identification and implementation of appropriate bias correction technique for improved precipitation forecasts, and forecast validation.

Effective early warning systems necessitate translation of hazard forecasts into sector and location-specific risk and impact information which can be integrated into decision-making processes for informed anticipatory actions. Early warning is a key element in building resilience to weather- and climate-related risks. In order to galvanize Forecast-based Actions (FbA) in the communities, National Hydrological and […]

The project made a technical assessment on possible risks of natural disasters in project target areas in Northern Pakistan.

The project aimed to develop longer-lead flood forecasts for Karnali, Narayani, and Babai basins, and demonstrate their application in decision-making for resource management and disaster risk reduction. Key activities included flood forecast model development, testing, and validation; decision support system development for flood risk assessment and warning; and training and technology transfer.

The project assisted BRAC in developing a Standard Operation Procedure for disaster management in support of BRAC Bangladesh’s Disaster, Environment and Climate Change program. Key activities included analysis of BRAC’s past emergency response activities, practices and institutional knowledge; incorporation of best practices; clarification of roles, responsibilities, relationships, common goals, and opportunities among BRAC, the government, […]

The project supported Deltares in implementing its flood early warning mobile services project. Key activities included user need assessment; technical inputs to user application development for flood early warning; and application demonstrations at pilot sites.

The project developed a toolkit for flood management in transboundary river basins, incorporating flood forecasting models, risk assessment techniques, and decision support tools from various sources

This project component aimed at improving data availability in support of flood forecasting and warning through establishment of 5 automatic weather stations and 15 automatic water level stations. Key activities included site identification, survey, and selection; equipment acquisition; onsite installations and telemetry; testing and integration into national and regional systems; and onsite training on operation, […]

The project aimed to develop longer-lead flood forecasts for Ayeyarwady, Chindwin, and Sittoung basins, and demonstrate their application in decision-making for resource management and disaster risk reduction. Key activities included flood forecast model development, testing, and validation; decision support system development for flood risk assessment and warning; and training and technology transfer.

The study visit by 9 officials of Iraq’s Joint Coordination and Monitoring Center aimed to enhance their capacity on communicating emergency risk and crisis situations. The training covered: communication in emergency management, risk communication, and crisis communication. Visits to different institutions exposed participants to operational application of these concepts.
