Earthquake forecasts move from theory to design questions

Seismologists from UC Berkeley and Stanford warn predictions remain probabilistic but push engineering focus toward ground motion and building safety. Data from the San Andreas fault network shows microquakes and magnetometer readings hinting at prequake activity, while policy efforts fund laboratories and large instrument arrays to study mechanisms and strengthen structures.

Seismologists Discuss Earthquake Prediction Progress

Breiner reports piezomagnetic observations linking rapid ground motion to later creep and local quakes along the San Andreas fault. Dr. Eaton notes research networks aim to locate quake regions, while Grantz warns of funding needs to better predict damage patterns in a decade. Scientists stress safe building over exact timing.
