2010 Annual Meeting: El Mayor-Cucapah Science Coordination Meeting

Organizer: Ken Hudnut
Dates: Wednesday, September 15, 2010 (1:00-5:00pm)
Location: Horizon Ballroom, Hilton Palm Springs Resort, Palm Springs, CA

CICESE colleagues will meet in an open forum with the SCEC community to review status and plans for ongoing studies of the El Mayor - Cucapah earthquake. For each main topic area of seismology, geology and geodesy, there will be an overview of the status of studies conducted so far, followed by discussion on remaining scientific priorities, planning and coordination for upcoming research. Approximately one hour will be devoted to each topic area (with time at the beginning for an overview, and at the end for general discussion). The objective is to further develop and to extend the successful collaboration and cooperation that has already led to many insights about this important earthquake, to ensure that crucial data continue to be acquired, and to help coordinate on joint efforts such as upcoming SCEC proposals. If you are actively engaged in research on this earthquake, or planning to study it, please plan to participate. Real-time language interpretation and translation will be available as needed. For any questions, please contact Ken Hudnut, USGS Southern California Regional Coordinator; (626) 583-7232, hudnut@usgs.gov.
