For example, CEPEC evaluated the 2004 earthquake prediction by Keilis-Borok [5] and a 2015 prediction following the La Habra earthquake [6] and concluded that no action should be taken as a result of those predictions. Earthquakes did not occur in the space-time window of either prediction.
Dr Lucy Jones in 1994. Lucile M. Jones (born 1955) is an American seismologist and public voice for earthquake science and earthquake safety in California. [1] One of the foremost and trusted public authorities on earthquakes, [2] Jones is viewed by many in Southern California as "the Beyoncé of earthquakes" who is frequently called upon to provide information on recent earthquakes.
Nadia Lapusta is a Professor of Mechanical Engineering and Geophysics at the California Institute of Technology.She designed the first computational model that could accurately and efficiently simulate sequence of earthquakes and interseismic slow deformation on a planar fault in a single consistent physical framework.
The Caltech Seismological Laboratory is an arm of the Division of Geological and Planetary Sciences of the California Institute of Technology.Known as "the Seismo Lab", it has been a world center for seismology research since the 1920s, and was for many decades a go-to source for rapid (and quotable) commentary to the press on large earthquakes.
Other lists followed, such as their 1991 claim of predicting six out of seven earthquakes with M s ≥ 5.5 in the period of 1 April 1987 through 10 August 1989, or five out of seven earthquakes with M s ≥ 5.3 in the overlapping period of 15 May 1988 to 10 August 1989, [w] In 1996 they published a "Summary of all Predictions issued from ...
That's based on high-resolution underground images re-created with the use of several dozen seismometers, earthquake measurements and a machine-learning algorithm, according to the university.
Since scaling relations between slip and total rupture length exist, the pulse like model implies that it may be possible to predict, at least in a probabilistic sense, how long the earthquake rupture could be once the slip values at some points are recorded and in the pulse like model we can have information about final slip values shortly ...
Natawidjaja became the initiator and coordinator of earthquake research at LIPI in 2002. With grants, he pioneered and developed a continuous network of SuGAr GPS stations since 2002 to monitor tectonic movements in Sumatra in collaboration with Caltech USA and the Earth Observatory of Singapore.
