The development of statistical seismology: A personal experience
Tectonophysics, 2006Abstract An account is given of the author's experiences in the development of statistical seismology as a tool for the description, understanding, and forecasting of earthquakes. The discussion is focussed on the formulation and use of stochastic models for earthquake occurrence.

Statistical methods in seismology
WIREs Computational Statistics, 2010AbstractOn July 16, 1945 the first nuclear weapon test (code named Trinity) began an evolution in warfare that led to the cold war where mutually assured destruction (MAD) prevented nuclear conflict between nations. The generation that fought the cold war understood the destructive power of a nuclear weapon—many had observed first hand the ruins of ...

Earthquakes are one of the natural disasters that pose a major threat to human lives and property. Earthquake prediction propels the construction and development of modern seismology; however, current deterministic earthquake prediction is limited by numerous difficulties.

The marriage of statistics and seismology
Journal of Applied Probability, 2001Daryl Daley has kindly invited me to write some prefatory words, autobiographical in character, to the collection of articles which follows. I am very happy to do this, but first let me express my appreciation of the efforts which Daryl, Peter Thomson, and the contributors have put into the making of this volume.

Statistical Seismology Science Gateway
2014Seismic hazard assessment and risk analysis are critical for human life since these fields study and model expected earthquakes to produce seismic hazard maps and to determine the risk of damage from potential earthquakes to buildings, dams, etc. The Statistical Seismology Science Gateway, built on the gUSE framework, holds a comprehensive set of tools

Foundations of Statistical Seismology
Pure and Applied Geophysics, 2010A brief account is given of the principles of stochastic modelling in seismology, with special regard to the role and development of stochastic models for seismicity. Stochastic models are seen as arising in a hierarchy of roles in seismology, as in other scientific disciplines.

The statistical study of precursory anomalies observed in Chinese Seismological Network
Acta Seismologica Sinica, 1998By using the precursory anomalies at fixed seismological stations or observational points in China, which are obtained every year from the Assembly of National Seismologic Consideration (ANSC) from 1988 to 1996, to study the relationship between the anomalies in a certain year and the earthquakes occurring in the Chinese mainland in the next year ...

Investigation of statistical seismology in Thailand-Laos-Myanmar borders
2023The purpose of this research is to understand more about the statistical seismology of the Thailand-Laos-Myanmar border in order to monitor earthquake activity and locate potentially dangerous area. The seismicity data was collected from the Thailand Meteorological Department.

Some Statistical Models for Seismological Discrimination
1975Seismological discrimination between earthquakes and explosions is generally based on a comparison of two seismic magnitudes. More or less detailed models of the statistical distribution of these are used and lead to somewhat different discrimination procedures.
