Forecasting earthquakes and earthquake risk
This paper reviews issues, models, and methodologies arising out of the problems of predicting earthquakes and forecasting earthquake risk. The emphasis is on statistical methods which attempt to quantify the probability of an earthquake occurring within specified time, space, and magnitude windows. One recurring theme is that such probabilities are best developed from models which specify a ti...
متن کاملEarthquake forecasting and its verification
No proven method is currently available for the reliable short time prediction of earthquakes (minutes to months). However, it is possible to make probabilistic hazard assessments for earthquake risk. These are primarily based on the association of small earthquakes with future large earthquakes. In this paper we discuss a new approach to earthquake forecasting. This approach is based on a patt...
متن کاملThe Potential Uses of Operational Earthquake Forecasting
This article reports on a workshop held to explore the potential uses of operational earthquake forecasting (OEF). We discuss the current status of OEF in the United States and elsewhere, the types of products that could be generated, the various potential users and uses of OEF, and the need for carefully crafted communication protocols. Although operationalization challenges remain, there was ...
متن کاملNon-Poissonian Earthquake Clustering and the Hidden Markov Model as Bases for Earthquake Forecasting in California
The quest to find successful methods to forecast future earthquakes has proven to be very challenging. Useful earthquake forecasts require detailed specification of a number of variables, namely the epicenter, depth, time and magnitude of the coming earthquake. While forecasting the times of strong aftershocks within the rupture zone of a strong earthquake has been developed with some success (...
متن کاملThe Entropy Score and its Uses in Earthquake Forecasting
Suppose a forecasting scheme associates a probability p with some observed outcome. The entropy score given to this forecast is then log p . This article provides a review of the background to this scoring method, its main properties, and its relationships to concepts such as likelihood, probability gain, and Molchan’s m-s diagram. It is shown that, in terms of this score, an intrinsic characte...
