NW Pacific --Here we demonstrate forecast effectiveness: displayed earthquakes (108 events) occurred after smoothed seismicity forecast had been calculated.
SW Pacific --Here we demonstrate forecast effectiveness: displayed earthquakes (170 events) occurred after smoothed seismicity forecast had been calculated.
1080 events (10 times the actual number of events in 2004-06) have been simulated, using the forecast density. Some points overlap; in low activity area we specified some low-level density to avoid surprises.

Forecast with CMT vs PDE catalogs • The CMT catalog has moment-tensor solutions, hence focal mechanisms can be forecasted. • However, the present method can be extended only for subduction zones. • The PDE catalog has lower magnitude threshold (4.8 vs 5.8 for CMT). The present methodology can be used for global forecast. • A program can be easily designed to issue within a few minutes long- and short-term forecasts with the PDE catalog at the arbitrary spatial window.
