  2. Stochastic models of earthquake occurrence and forecasting • Long-term models for earthquake occurrence, optimization of smoothing procedure and its testing (Kagan and Jackson, 1994, 2000). • Empirical branching models (Kagan, 1973a,b; Kagan and Knopoff, 1987; Ogata, 1988, 1998; Kagan, 2006). • Physical branching models – propagation of earthquake fault is simulated (Kagan and Knopoff, 1981; Kagan, 1982).

  16. Long-term Forecast Efficiency Evaluation • We simulate synthetic catalogs using smoothed seismicity map. • Likelihood function for simulated catalogs and for real earthquakes in the time period of forecast is computed. • If the `real earthquakes’ likelihood value is within 2.5—97.5% of synthetic distribution, the forecast is considered successful. Kagan, Y. Y., and D. D. Jackson, 2000. Probabilistic forecasting of earthquakes, Geophys. J. Int., 143, 438-453.

  17. Here we demonstrate forecast effectiveness: displayed earthquakes occurred after smoothed seismicity forecast had been calculated.

  18. Kossobokov, 2006. Testing earthquake prediction methods: ``The West Pacific short-term forecast of earthquakes with magnitude MwHRV \ge 5.8", Tectonophysics, 413(1-2), 25-31. See also Kagan & Jackson, TECTO, 2006, pp. 33-38.

  19. . Likelihood ratio – information/eq Similarly we obtain likelihood function for the null hypothesismodel (Poisson process in time) Information content of a catalog : (bits/earthquake) characterizes uncertainty reduction by use of a particular model. Kagan and Knopoff, PEPI, 1977; Kagan, GJI, 1991; Kagan and Jackson, GJI, 2000; Helmstetter, Kagan and Jackson, BSSA, 2006

  20. Conclusions • We present an earthquake forecast program which quantitatively predicts both long- and short-term earthquake probabilities. • The program is numerically and rigorously testable. • It is ready to be implemented as a technological solution for earthquake hazard forecasting and early warning.
