Resumen:
The South-Patagonian region in South America is the southernmost habitable area in the world, and the inhabitant of this region directly suffers the influence of ozone hole that overpasses the region during austral late spring. In addition, volcanic ashes spread from the Andes volcanoes cause serious damages on agriculture, live stocks, forestry, tourism, and daily life near the volcanoes and make traffic jams of airlines over much larger area. To monitor such risks and to distribute the risk information to the public people timely, we have been conducting an international project to build a ground-based observing network of ozone/UV and aerosols to detect the risks for the local habitant and to establish a communication network distributing near-real-time risk information and near-future forecasts based on the observations and model calculations. The name of the project is SAVER-Net (South American Environmental Risk Management Network) which is five-year trilateral project starting in 2013 among Japan, Argentina, and Chile promoted by Japanese funding agencies JICA and JST under SATREPS (Science and Technology Research Partnership for Sustainable Development) program.
