Intellectual Merit
|
The project provides a basis for testing systems for measuring transient deformations, and thus increasing our understanding of how crustal motion affects, and is affected by, earthquakes and the earthquake cycle. |
Broader Impacts
|
The ability to detect transient deformations has the potential for social impacts in so far as it might lead to prediction of earhtquakes. The software developed with SCEC support is made available for general use in modeling deformations from earthquakes and other sources. |
