17:00Final discussion

The Workshop's Recommendations:

1. As the first step towards improving the location accuracy, the ISC should seriously consider moving from JB to a AK-135 velocity model, as the model better represents the real Earth.

2. The ISC is asked to recompute and review 2-3 months of its recent Bulletin and make the results available from the ISC website.

3. The second Workshop is to be called during the IUGG Assembly in Perugia, 2007, where interested scientists would be encouraged to assess the results of the ISC relocations from a regional point of view.

4. The methods suugested by the speakers are to be re-visited again once the AK135 model is in place.

5. Authors are encouraged to submit papers to a special section in "Physics Of the Earth and Planetary Interior".
