Flood forecasting system
A new flood forecasting system that could give countries along the Danube River Basin up to 10 days to prepare for potentially devastating water levels was launched yesterday.
The system, known as the Danube European Flood Alert System or Danube-EFAS, includes rainfall and flood forecasts throughout the Danube River region and aims to serve as an additional tool for local authorities.
