It is an asset to the flood risk management of large trans-national river basins as well as the European Civil Protection Mechanism. In addition to forecasting where and when large riverine and flash floods will likely occur, the service also estimates and maps the potential socio-economic impact of those events. The primary aim of the development of a European Certification process in Trauma and Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Surgery is to promote the highest standard of practice in our field of expertise to benefit patients. This certification is designed to validate the knowledge and skills of foot and ankle specialists, setting a standard of excellence within the profession. This course covers the main topics and basic surgical techniques in foot and ankle such as Hallux Valgus surgery, Hallux rigidus surgery, Ankle instability, Metatarsalgia, Hindfoot arthrodesis.

The chronology below gives a historical perspective as well as a glimpse into the future of the EFA Annual Meeting locations, hosts and chairs over the years (including links to conference websites, if available). We have come a long way from where we started and today, EFAS represents 28 national societies and around surgeons in Europe. As there was no adequate validated foot and ankle score in different European languages, EFAS created a committee (Score Committee), inaugurated and headed by Martinus Richter, to develop, validate and publish a new score in common European mother tongues. A portfolio of Europe’s training sites selected with the best internationally validated educational criteria. The EFACS E/8 Master Production Scheduling (MPS) and Material Requirements Planning (MRP) modules work together to provide accurate planning and control of materials and products. The comprehensive EFACS E/8 planning module will schedule production, including material management.

Both methods are designed to help organizations assess their current situation and make informed decisions about their future direction. While they serve similar purposes, there are key differences between the two approaches that make each one unique in its own right. The first time user is advised to get familiar with the services and products by browsing through the EFAS User Guide. A full documentation on the technical background of EFAS can be found in the EFAS wiki. Please be advised that only EFAS Full European Paying Members registered as Orthopaedic Surgeons who are present during the General Assembly are eligible to vote.

This dataset was produced by forcing the LISFLOOD hydrological model at a 0.1° (~11 km at the equator) resolution with downscaled runoff forecasts from the ECMWF 51-member ensemble seasonal forecasting system, SEAS5. The forecasts are initialised on the first of each month with a 24-hourly time step, and cover 123 or 215 days, depending on the date it was produced. This dataset provides a gridded modelled time series of river discharge, forced with medium- to sub-seasonal range meteorological reforecasts from GloFAS. This dataset was produced by forcing the LISFLOOD hydrological modelling chain with input from the ECMWF-ENS 11-member ensemble reforecasts. Reforecasts are forecasts run over past dates, and those presented here are used for providing a suitably long time period against which the skill of the 30-day real-time operational forecast can be assessed.

• Therefore, data previously downloaded using the sub-setting tool should be disregarded and users should download the dataset of interest again over the full EFAS domain.
• The basic criterion will be to satisfy the Council of Management that the applying Non-European Society fulfils the function of being a National Society of predominantly Orthopaedic Surgeons dedicated to the advancement of Foot & Ankle Surgery within their own country.
• EFAS Council and the Certification Board have agreed that it would be appropriate to consider awarding an Honorary Certificate to European Foot and Ankle Surgeons of merit.
• The EFACS E/8 financial suite consists of a comprehensive range of accounting modules that ensure accurate, real-time, cohesive financial management for your business.
• EFAS 4.2 mainly concerns the addition of new hydrological river discharge stations in relevant layers, wtih additional improvements and general bug fixes.
• Volumetric oil moisture and river discharge data are accompanied by Auxiliary Data for interpretation.
• But it can also be used to cover costs for statistical support or data management.
• EFAS provides a strong platform for professionals from diverse scientific and clinical backgrounds to cooperate and collaborate.
• This will comprise evidence-based practice and technical tips including videos of surgical techniques.

For the candidates who pass the Board shall be responsible for the recommendation to the Union of European Medical Societies (UEMS) for endorsement prior to the award of the Certificate. EFAS provides the framework for focused working groups, usually consisting of active members in the respective field that are established and terminated as needed. Their task usually is to coordinate work directed to specific problems in audiology across different European countries, to come up with reports, consensus statements, or recommendations for further coordinated actions. If you are an an individual with strong commitment to foot and ankle surgery residing and working outside of Europe, you may apply for this membership type. If you are a foot and ankle surgeon residing and working in a European country where there is no EFAS-affiliated National Society, you may apply for this membership type by choosing respective option below.

EFAS Real-time Forecasts

MEMBERSHIPEFAS is open for membership for national societies of audiology in the European countries. Each member nation shall be represented by a single Voting Representative and by two Non-Voting Representatives, appointed by the respective national audiology society if available. For a country without a national audiology society, the Board may accept as a temporary alternative another professional society or entity, which is actively engaged in audiology. The future of audiology depends on collaboration across disciplines and borders. EFAS provides a strong platform for professionals from diverse scientific and clinical backgrounds to cooperate and collaborate.

Prof. Dr. Andro Kosec

GloFAS is primarily designed for larger river catchments (over 10,000 km2), where the forecast skill is expected to be considerably higher. For small catchments, especially below 500 km2, the uncertainties get much larger due to the horizontal resolution constraints (~5 km in the river network and ~9 km in the meteorological forcing such as precipitation). This is reflected in our products/layers which do consider a minimum catchment size of 250 km2 or 500 km2, depending on the product. Snow depth water equivalent represents the amount of water stored as ice and snow given as an instantaneous value at the end of each model time step.

GloFAS reforecasts

Foot and ankle surgery is the sub-specialty of orthopaedic surgery which deals with the treatment, diagnosis and prevention of disorders of the foot and ankle. Specialist foot and ankle surgeons are likely to have undergone surgical training, specialty training in orthopaedics and an additional fellowship in foot and ankle surgery. The GFM product is designed to deliver, in near real-time, critical information on ongoing floods events to users worldwide, including national authorities, emergency units, research centres, decision-makers and other stakeholders.

On the other hand, being confronted with different experiences and reality might be in lighting. With this in mind, EFAS has developed for several years a program of travelling fellowships which has been a success and that we intend to expand as soon as the epidemic situation permits. In addition, we are starting, conditioned buy the sanitary situation, a project for Research Fellowships where the https://www.efas2023.org/forum/ Fellow will spend some months on a select Research Centre and develop a project on the Foot and Ankle field. It is important to comply with all court requirements and protocols during an online hearing.

The policy of the Copernicus program is that products and services offered under this program are per definition free and open to everyone, with only a few exceptions made for specific reasons. With regards to flood management, the Member States hold the exclusive right to issue flood warnings. To respect that mandate, all real-time EFAS forecasts and products are restricted and only accessible to “EFAS partners”. Logbook A complete logbook of surgical cases shall be required preferably electronically for ratification by the examination board before proceeding to the examination.

To that end we organise the structure and content of the EFAS Instructional Courses, normally held three to four times a year at a variety of locations across Europe. We provide a core faculty for these courses but are also committed to working alongside local faculty colleagues. These shall be determined by the examination board in conjunction with the Honorary Treasurer. Candidates will be asked to sign a disclaimer before proceeding to the examination that they agree that the Examination Board has the final say regarding pass or fail.

I extend my sincere gratitude to all members of EFAS for placing your trust in me. It is both a profound responsibility and a great source of inspiration to lead such a distinguished community of professionals in the field of audiology. A technical issue linked with the processing of SYNOP data at ECMWF has impacted the quality of the SYNOP layer shown on EFAS. This does not have any impact on the EFAS service which does not use the data stream used in the SYNOP layer. This will comprise evidence-based practice and technical tips including videos of surgical techniques. It seems we attempted to describe soil depth as a grib parameter (as it is used in multiple in-house applications) on this documentation page.
