		| Scope | Modern earthquake science requires rigorous experimentation. Earthquake predictability studies (e.g. Collaboratory for the Study of Earthquake Predictability) emphasize the importance of testing earthquake forecast models so far. Japan, California, New Zealand and other regions are currently operating or developing regional centers for such tests, and the findings may yield a better understanding not only of the models' basic features but also of particular physical aspects of earthquake occurrence. We solicit presentations about forecast models, their components, and their performance, in particular statistical models. Especially, we would like to discuss problems in forecasting large earthquakes such as recent devastating events in Japan and New Zealand. |
