and (4) Reducing Seismic Risk.

The topical elements within these thematic areas cover a wide spectrum of activities including gathering basic data, compiling data into Community Models, developing physics-based models of earthquake rupture and ground motion characterization, improving probabilistic seismic hazard analysis and operational earthquake forecasting, and applying these results and models to help reduce seismic risk
