DOMINGUEZ-CALLE, Efraín e LOZANO-BAEZ, Sergio. State of the art of the early warning system in Colombia. Rev. acad. colomb. cienc. exact. fis. nat. [online]. 2014, vol.38, n.148, pp.321-332. ISSN 0370-3908.
The overall increase of natural disasters has generated significant economic, environmental and human life losses. As a tool for mitigating these impacts, early warning systems have been developed, about which there is a lot of information that, unfortunately, is scattered. In this context, this paper aimed at reviewing the literature on the topic, delving into two major disasters: floods and droughts. We also present early warning systems in Colombia and some recommendations on how to improve their use.
