What we need • Broadband arrays of uniformly calibrated instruments • Long-term ocean observatories and stations • Computational capabilities - HPC • Move from 3D to 4D seismology (time-dependent
seismology) • Training of next generation of researchers in
computational methods and wave propagation theory European tools for the next 10 years?
