The Prediction Problems of Earthquake System Science
Editor’s note: The following is the text of the SSA Presidential Address presented at the Annual Luncheon of the Seismological Society of America (SSA) Annual Meeting on 30 April 2014. The Seismological Society of America (SSA) has always been dedicated to understanding and reducing the earthquake threat. The Society was founded in 1906 “for the acquisition and diffusion of knowledge concerning...
متن کاملThirty-Five-Year Creep Rates for the Creeping Segment of the San Andreas Fault and the Effects of the 2004 Parkfield Earthquake: Constraints from Alignment Arrays, Continuous Global Positioning System, and Creepmeters
We present results from differential Global Positioning System (GPS) surveys of seven alignment arrays and four continuous GPS sites along the creeping segment of the San Andreas fault. Surveys of four alignment arrays from the central creeping segment yield 33to 36-year average minimum slip rates of 21–26 mm/yr. These rates are consistent with previous alignment array surveys spanning a 10-yea...
متن کاملDetermining the extent of building destruction after an earthquake using satellite imagery and fuzzy logic (Case study of Sarpol-e-Zahab region)
Background and objective: Earthquake is one of the most destructive natural disasters. Earthquakes occur in urban areas, destroying buildings and injuring people living in them. Urban center buildings are among the features that are exposed to many hazards during an earthquake. One of the first measures taken after an earthquake is relief. Locating damaged buildings can speed up relief efforts....
متن کاملRecent Developments in Understanding Natural-Hazards-Generated TEC Perturbations: Measurements and Modeling Results
Natural hazards including earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and tsunamis have been significant threats to humans throughout recorded history. Global navigation satellite systems (GNSS; including the Global Positioning System (GPS)) receivers have become primary sensors to measure signatures associated with natural hazards. These signatures typically include GPS-derived seismic deformation measure...
متن کاملPreliminary Work on an Early Warning and Rapid Response Program for Moderate Earthquakes
Warning of imminent ground shaking due to a large earthquake would be useful to a variety of agencies. This kind of ground-motion prediction is possible in southern California for events with magnitude less than 6, where path effects dominate. The 28 June 1991 Sierra Madre earthquake is presented as a test case for this concept. A single-station inversion of the record from the Pasadena station...
