TL;DR: The 2016 M w ǫ 7.8 Kaikōura earthquake continued a notable decade of damaging earthquake impacts in New Zealand as mentioned in this paper, including two fatalities, tsunami, tens of thousands of landslides, the collapse of one residential building, and damage to numerous structures and infrastructure.

The 2010–2011 Canterbury Earthquake Sequence: Environmental effects, seismic triggering thresholds and geologic legacy
Mark Quigley,Mark Quigley,Matthew W. Hughes,Brendon Bradley,Sjoerd van Ballegooy,Catherine M. Reid,Justin Morgenroth,Travis W. Horton,Brendan Duffy,Brendan Duffy,Jarg R. Pettinga +10 more
TL;DR: The 2010-2011 Canterbury Earthquake Sequence (CES) as discussed by the authors is one of the best recorded historical earthquake sequences, including the moment magnitude (M w ) 7.1 Darfield earthquake and M w 6.2, 6.0, 5.9 and 5.8 aftershocks.

Expert judgement and uncertainty quantification for climate change
TL;DR: The need for formalized approaches to unifying numerical modelling with expert judgement is highlighted in order to facilitate characterization of uncertainty in a reproducible, consistent and transparent fashion and recommend indicators or signposts that characterize successful science-based uncertainty quantification.
Journal ArticleDOI
Operational Earthquake Forecasting Can Enhance Earthquake Preparedness
TL;DR: The front end of an operational earthquake forecasting system should be an interface for continually providing forecasting information that is timely, authoritative, and properly conditioned to serve multiple end users, including the general public.

Statistical Models for Earthquake Occurrences and Residual Analysis for Point Processes
TL;DR: Several classes of stochastic models for the origin times and magnitudes of earthquakes are discussed and the utility of seismic quiescence for the prediction of a major earthquake is investigated.

Liquefaction Resistance of Soils: Summary Report from the 1996 NCEER and 1998 NCEER/NSF Workshops on Evaluation of Liquefaction Resistance of Soils
T. L. Youd,Izzat M. Idriss +1 more
TL;DR: In 1996, a workshop sponsored by the National Center for Earthquake Engineering Research (NCEER) was convened by Professors T. L. Youd and I. M. Idriss with 20 experts to review developments over the previous 10 years as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Space-Time Point-Process Models for Earthquake Occurrences
TL;DR: Several space-time statistical models are constructed based on both classical empirical studies of clustering and some more speculative hypotheses, and the goodness-of-fit of the models, as measured by AIC values, is discussed for two high quality data sets, in different tectonic regions as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this article, a stochastic finite-fault model was used to predict ground motion for hard-rock and soil sites in eastern North America (ENA), including estimates of their aleatory uncertainty (vari- ability).
