Exciting news! We're transitioning to the Statewide California Earthquake Center. Our new website is under construction, but we'll continue using this website for SCEC business in the meantime. We're also archiving the Southern Center site to preserve its rich history. A new and improved platform is coming soon!

Community Near-Fault Observatory - Breakout Session
Subsurface Fault Zone Structure
Convened by Pieter-Ewald Share and Frank Vernon

Register: https://zoom.us/meeting/register/tJEkf-2spjMvHNNHzWyPhTPguZyzQgk0b8Ax

Geophysical data collected within rupture zones of significant earthquakes are essential for testing and developing further models of earthquake processes. This breakout session is one in a series of sessions intended to gather input from the broader earthquake science community on key research areas, science questions, and the data and experiments needed to address them in the near-fault zone. At this session we will hear from:

  • Elizabeth Cochran (USGS)
  • Ellis Vavra (UCSD)
  • Nate Onderdonk (CSULB)

 This event will be held in Zoom Meeting format and will feature presentations along with time for Q&A and discussion. A recording will be made available on YouTube after the event. Previous breakout sessions are available here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLvd8fqCFf8CWyzf BuUzOLZS7DcHddj1w. We welcome others to get in touch if they would like to present at or organize a breakout session in the future.

For background on the community near-fault observatory concept, please watch this presentation (~15 minutes): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wkS7SdSYqrs.
