4 1 Introduction This analysis has be prepared in the framework of the project Transfer of know-how to secure efficit exploitation of results of geological studies aimed at prediction of natural geohazards (undertak within the projects of foreign developmt co-operation) by governmtal organisations of a beficiary, supported by a grant from Iceland, Liechtstein and Norway through the EEA Financial Mechanism and the Norwegian Financial Mechanism. The aim of the project is to transfer know-how from the Norwegian partner institution - International Ctre for Geohazards / Norwegian Geotechnical Institute (ICG/NGI) - to the experts of the Czech Geological Survey (CGS) so that the results of cooperative developmt aid programs can be implemted with maximum efficicy and have direct practical befits to the communities affected. The analysis has be based on a joint assessmt of a selected sample of CGS developmt projects in the field of natural hazards including consultations with selected organizations in the recipit countries. The analysis provides a fundamtal input for design of a methodology on procedures aiming at a more efficit exploitation of results of geological studies aimed at the prediction of natural geohazards by beficiary organisations. In the initial phase of the project and during the Joint Workshop I, the overview of selected projects realized by CGS was elaborated and problematic issues were idtified and discussed. Two types of questionnaires for consultations with selected organizations in the recipit countries were prepared: one for counterpart institutions and a second one for d users. A list of relevant organizations in the beficiary countries was prepared and meetings with their represtatives were organized. Consequtly, interviews with 48 contacts in Nicaragua and Costa were carried out as a part of the Joint Workshop II. All the gathered information was jointly assessed and summarized in this analysis. 4

5 2 Overview of realised projects 2.1 Project of developmt assistance cooperation of the Czech Republic RP/6/2007 Regional geological investigation on the definition and prediction of natural hazards in ctral part of Ctral America Nicaragua, ctral and northern sectors of the country. Pacific region was investigated in the frame of initial projects undertak in the country. Period of project(s) implemtation projects undertak in the Pacific region, and projects carried out in ctral and northern sectors of the country were aimed at the definition of geohazards in the vicinities of larger cities. Project objectives and methods of investigation The investigation was chiefly focused on idtification, localization, specification and description of geohazards derived from geological structures in the giv region and/or on proposals of appropriate measures to mitigate impacts due to natural hazards. Relevant reports and maps were based on newly undertak geological surveys, geomorphological and structural analysis, and/or gineering-geological studies. Characteristics of the recipit Instituto Nicaragüse de Estudios Territoriales, Managua, (Departmt of Geophysics, Ms. Angélica Muñoz, M.Sc., Director). The partner organisation is the major recipit of the project outputs. The Institute is the mediator that conveys project data, in original or simplified form to local authorities, municipalities and public administrations of the giv cities or regions. The final d-users of project results are people living in the project area. Project outputs Series of maps of 1: scale were the main project output: The following maps were prepared: map of geohazards and/or slope instabilities, geological map, map of documted 5

6 points, and map of structural geology. All maps are accompanied by explanatory texts and summaries of analytical data and their interpretation. Field records in digital form are also an integral part of the project outputs. Method of handover of project results to the recipit Project outputs were handed over to the counterpart organization as soon as the project was completed and through their prestation to professionals from relevant Nicaraguan institutions and also to foreign experts. The results of the initial projects used to be prested and handed over to represtatives of municipalities, mayors of the giv cities and commissioners of districts, regions and/or provinces, Civil defce, Military, etc. Prestations were also organized in the capital of Nicaragua, specifically at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Office of the Presidt, Ministry of Environmt and Natural Resources MARENA, SINAPRED the organization gaged in idtification and invtory of natural hazards, and at other institutions. At all these prestations, there was always the presce of the media. Other prestations of project results In addition to the abovemtioned local prestations, project results were also introduced at international geological and volcanological congresses in Mexico (Colima conferces in 2000, 2002, 2004), in Ecuador (congress at Quito in 2006), in Nicaragua (congresses in 1997, 2005), in Chile (congresses at Pucón in 2005 and at Puerto Varas in 2002), in Germany (conferce at Kiel in 2006) and in Costa (congress at San José in 2008). Survey of the efficicy of implemtation of project results There have be limited opportunities for surveying the implemtation of the project results handed over to Nicaraguan recipits. One-year projects are always terminated by simple transfer of results to relevant recipits. Occasionally information on exploitation of the project results was mtioned or highlighted in the media (e.g., investigations related to hurricane Mitch and its impacts in 1998, prediction of earthquake dislocations along faults related to the Apoyo volcano in 1999, aspects related to the discovery of the Somoto canyon, etc.). The project results, maps in particular, are occasionally modified by the counterpart organisation and also prested as results of the research done by local experts. A continuous 6

7 survey from the Czech part is virtually impossible because of the absce of a project manager once the one-year projects are terminated and results handed over to the recipit Costa, Cordillera Tilarán (Cerranías de Abangares, Montes de Oro). Miramar, Chapernal, Juntas (3 map sheets of 1: scale, total extt of the area investigated 1500 km 2 ). Period of the project implemtation 2006 field reconnaissance in the Miramar area (Jabonal) map sheet Miramar map sheet Chapernal map sheet Juntas. Project inttions and objectives The project was designed to contribute to the mitigation of impacts of natural disasters causing or resulting in casualties, property and economic losses, damage on social structure and ecology of affected regions. Acquisition of data for short- or intermediate range prognosis of hazardous evts. The project objectives were in harmony with long-term developmt programs of the giv regions. Methods of investigations Field operations were based on interpreted data of remote ssing (satellite imagery and aerial photographs). Individual thematic information layers included geology, structural geology, petrology and geochemistry of rocks, hydrochemical and hydrogeological overview of the subject area, idtification of natural hazards (landslides, floods, erosion and sedimts aggradation, contamination, undermining), geochemical studies of mineral indications. Characteristics of the recipit MINAET Departmt of Geology and Mines (Dirección de Geología y Minas), San José, represted by Mr. José Francisco Castro M., director, and Ms. Marle Salazar, deputy director. Projects outputs 7

8 Final Report - description of remote ssing methods, tectonics, geology, lithology and stratigraphy of local rocks, hydrological assessmt of the area, geohazards, mineral deposits, methods of GIS data processing. The following maps at a scale of 1: were prepared: Geological map, map of documted points, map of geohazards (susceptibility to landslides, inundations, contamination of waters), invtory map of slope deformations at 1: scale, map of mineral indications (selected area of ca 500 km 2 ) Method of handover of project results to the recipit Official handover of all maps, the Final Report and all databases to MINAET San José took place in April At MINAET, there were two brief prestations of achieved results took place.
