Earthquake prediction

Conference ·
OSTI ID:7061444
This book presents the papers given at a symposium on the forecasting of earthquakes. Topics considered at the symposium included earthquake precursors, aftershocks, seismicity, changes in gravity in epicenters before earthquakes, rock mechanics, seismology, stress fields due to offsets of inclined faults, computerized simulation, geophysical prediction methods, individual and group response to earthquake prediction, the economics of forecasting, the role of institutions, the communication of predictions and warnings, foreshocks, social impacts, the implementation of seismic safety legislation, political aspects, socio-economic factors, and administrative consequences of prediction.
