Recent seismological developments relating to earthquake Hazard
Main Article Content
Abstract
The recent sesimological evidence is discused as it relates to estimating earthquakes strong motion, potential slip at various points along a fault, long term seismic pattern, earthquake statistics, and earthquake Hazard.
