The newly published review paper titled “Developing, Testing, and Communicating Earthquake Forecasts: Current Practices and Future Directions” provides a comprehensive look at the current state of Operational Earthquake Forecasting (OEF). This extensive work is the result of a global collaboration among leading experts, including contributions from researchers within the DT-GEO community.

In the realm of geophysical research, the spotlight often shines on the dramatic—earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions. However, behind the scenes, essential infrastructure quietly powers these scientific advancements. One such critical component is the flexible framework for EOSC-enabling and FAIR-validation of project assets and outcomes, integrated into the European Plate Observing System (EPOS) and HPC/virtual cloud computing Research Infrastructures (RIs). This framework, while not as immediately eye-catching as a volcanic eruption, plays a pivotal role in ensuring that the data and tools researchers rely on are accessible, interoperable, and reusable.
