Statewide california earthquake center, 2024-2026PROJECT period: 2 1 2024 through 1 31 2026PROJECT purpose: california s pacific-north america plate boundary, with its complex network of active faults…
This project expects to deliver several key tools for understanding and mitigating the effects of earthquakes in california. First, comprehensive statewide community earth models will integrate diverse data to offer a detailed picture of the state s earthquake landscape. These models will inform multi-cycle earthquake simulations, revealing long-term fault behavior and potential hazards. Large earthquake scenarios will depict possible consequences in different regions, guiding emergency response planning and public education. The project will leverage the community models to refine physics-based psha using the cybershake platform, generating more accurate hazard maps for california. The project also aims to improve earthquake forecast models, for better prediction capabilities. All developed models and simulation results will be accessible to researchers, policymakers, and the public through sustainable platforms. Finally, the project will actively disseminate hazard information through workshops, outreach programs, and online resources, ultimately increasing societal resilience to earthquakes.
Intended beneficiaries
The project will provide valuable knowledge for diverse stakeholders. Scientists benefit from improved data and models for research, engineers gain accurate hazard maps and earthquake scenarios to design resilient infrastructure, and emergency response agencies refine preparedness plans with realistic simulations.
Subrecipient activities
Scec will manage a competitive annual process for small research projects to achieve proposed goals and milestones. These collaborations among institutions facilitated through scec will be funded via subawards with specific recipients determined annually after the annual planning process and with USGS input.
