Estudio geofísico de la corteza oceánica de la Cuenca Canaria (Atlántico Centro-Oriental)

[ES] El estudio combinado de datos de sísmica de reflexión de multicanal y de monocanal permite conocer la estructura de la corteza oceánica de la Cuenca Canaria y relacionarla con la historia de la expansión del fondo oceánico y las principales estructuras tectónicas formadas durante el Mesozoico en el Atlántico Central.[EN] The combined study of single and multi-channel seismic reflection data allow us to understand the structure of the Canary Basin oceanic crust and their relationship with the seafloor spreading history and main tectonic features formed during Mesozoic times on the Central Atlantic.Este trabajo es parte del estudio llevado a cabo por C.R.

Valores medios del coeficiente de atenuación de las ondas Rayleigh para Europa Occidental

En este estudio presentamos los valores medios del coeficiente de atenuación de las ondas Rayleigh para Europa occidental, obtenidos a partir del estudio de tres terremotos situados en las Azores, Sicília y Mar Negro y registrados por estaciones europeas. Los resultados presentan una gran dispersión, mostrando claramente la inhomogeneidad de la zona.Para el terremoto del Atlántico, los resultados son muy coherentes y presentan unos valores del coeficiente de atenuación comparables, aunque ligeramente superiores para periodos cortos, a los haliados para la region estable de la placa Euroasiática

JRC Implementation Review 2017: In the context of the interim evaluation of the Horizon 2020 Programme

This report presents an external assessment of the follow-up that the JRC has given to the ex-post evaluation of its direct actions under the Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) conducted in 2015. The report addresses the new JRC 2030 strategy and the adaptation of the organisational structure in July 2016. The evaluation panel compliments the organisation and its leadership on the work in the design of the strategy, in gathering the support and adapting the organisational structure for the implementation of the strategy. In relatively short time the JRC went through the biggest change since the introduction of its policy-support mission in the Fifth Framework Programme in 1998. The panel notes the enthusiasm and the impressive speed with which the JRC has implemented a large number of improvements (Chapter 2). Having seen so many parts of the renewed organisation, the panel also had a critical look at the change (Chapter 3), and gives three general recommendations for further development of the JRC (Chapter 4). - Keep focus on excellence in science - Connect the whole organisation to the transformation - A modern JRC merits modern governanceJRC.DDG2-Deputy Director-General in charge of Directorates B,C,D,E,F,

EX-POST EVALUATION OF THE DIRECT ACTIONS OF THE JOINT RESEARCH CENTRE UNDER THE SEVENTH FRAMEWORK PROGRAMMES 2007-2013

The ex-post evaluation in this report provides the independent assessment requested in the Council Decisions concerning the specific programmes to be carried out by means of direct actions by the Joint Research Centre implementing the Seventh Framework Programmes (2007-2013) of the European Community and of the European Atomic Energy Community (Euratom). The evaluation has been conducted by a panel of independent external experts under the chairmanship of Professor Patrick Cunningham. In this report the Panel concludes positively on the effectiveness of the JRC as the Commission’s science service in support of Euratom and EU policies. It also concludes that the JRC has a respectable scientific performance in its areas of competence. In particular, the JRC standard is high as regards the scientific quality and impact of its publications. Besides a number of recommendations for incremental improvement of the JRC the Panel also flags two issues with a view to transformative change of the JRC. To begin with the JRC should establish a long-term strategy before the mid-term evaluation of the Horizon 2020 framework programme in 2017. As the JRC further develops its function as scientific service of the Commission, there is a need to address the JRC’s governance as well as its interaction with the scientific community in the Member States. In light of this the Commission should task a Group of eminent personalities to put forward options for JRC governance, adapted to its functions of the future. These include scientific support, research, scientific advice, and knowledge management in partnership with the Member StatesJRC.ADV02-Adviser for Evaluation and Scientific Integrit
