Earthquakes: Future shock in California
Duncan Agnew1
Abstract
For California, probabilistic principles can be applied to the short-term forecasting of further ground-shaking following an earthquake. How such predictions will be used by the public remains to be seen.
"What can we expect next?" — this question is foremost in the minds of the public and news media following any widely felt earthquake.
