WPGM meeting was organized for the first time in Beijing, China and took place in the Beijing convention Center. A
special session was organized under on the Tectonophyscs section titled " Observation, Methodology, and Theory
of Electromagnetic Signals Associated with Earthquake" and chaired by Q. Huang (Peking University, China), D.
Ouzounov (GMU, USA), L. Telesca (IMAA, Italy) and T. Nagao (Tokai University, Japan). Session activities include
poster session with 14 presentations and three oral sessions with totally 17 oral presentations. All poster and oral
sessions all papers were divided into five topic groups:

Widely presented topic during the all sessions was the MDCB-5 precursor monitoring approach. Six posters were
prepared by Chen I-wan, W.Yang, W.Wang, L. Wang, et al. from Califas Consultants, Ltd, Beijing. They consider that
the new developed EM sensors, methodology and monitoring approach deliver weekly forecast for the major
earthquakes in the Asian region.

After closing all presentations Q. Huang opened the floor for discussion and ask all foreign participants what are
their advices to the EM science community in China. D. Ouzounov (USA) proposed to the session to make a
collection CD with all oral and poster talks CD in PDF format and delivery to each speaker; to work towards more
close cooperation with seismology and Tectonophysics communities, in order to achieve a progress in the
earthquake monitoring/forecast topic; to succeed into the new Seismo-electromagnetic Chinese satellite mission, a
joint work is needed between ground EM and ionospheric science groups to be able to integrate and validate both
approaches into a common project for earthquake forecasts in China. T. Nagao (Japan) proposed that future work
should be focused on the developing a comprehensive model to explain the nature of the different EM precursors
and their relationship to the earthquake preparation process. K. Hattori (Japan) and V. Lappena (Italy) both
concluded about the importance of ULF/ELF ground network measurements for future earthquake monitoring in
China. Q. Huang (China) made the final conclusion about the session dedicated to the EM phenomena related to
earthquakes organized in China and thank to all for their participations.
