Enhancing California Seismic Testing Strategies for Global Impact
This paper focuses on improving seismic testing methods in California to establish reference models and enhance global models. It discusses incorporating ComCat into CSEP, versioning, short-term testing, time-based versus event-based approaches, retrospective testing, and collaboration between USGS and CSEP. The study aims to address catalog issues and test variations for a more comprehensive understanding of seismic activity.

Presentation Transcript
2012 Priorities • Incorporation of ComCat into CSEP (Benz, Maechling, Schorlemmer) • How to handle versioning? • Improve short-term testing (Michael, Werner, Liukis, Field, Schorlemmer) • Time-based or event-based? • Set up retrospective testing for California (Michael, Field, Hauksson, Felzer) • From when? Catalog issues? • Establish California reference models (Jackson, Schorlemmer, Jackson, Field, Michael) • Which ones? Other regions? • Test STEP variations & components (Gerstenberger?) • Who will conduct analysis? • Test UCERF branches & components (Field, Jackson) • Which ones? How? • Establish global models and physics-based models (Jackson, Parsons) • Test component hypotheses? • Technical link between USGS and CSEP (Jones, Blanpied) • Who, from where?
