The Global Seismic Hazard Assessment Program (GSHAP)
Publication:
. p. 3-13
, The UN International Decade of Natural Disster Reduction (IDNDR)has endorsed, as an international demostration project, the International Lithodphere Program's proposal for a Global seismic Hazard Assessment (GSHAP). GSHAP embodies many of the strategies and priorities of the IDNDR; the principal targets are the developing countries located in active earthquake belts; the ultimate benefits will be national assessments of seismic hazards, available before the end of the decade in a standaedized form, that can be brought to the attention of national decision makers for the implementation of risk mitigation strategies. The five-year program, initiated in 1992, is coordinated ona global and regional level, with a regionalized scheme based on the establishment of nine Centres in all continents responsible for coordinating hazard activities in their region and in selected test areas of prime seismotectonic relevance.

global seismotectonics to global seismic hazard
Publication:
, The concept of globally consistent hazard has two central and inter-related problems : first in achieving a uniform hazard methodology, and second in ensuring that there is consistency in the availability and use of seismotectonic knowledge. Seismotectonics and seizmic hazard are two parallel "words" that do not simply correspond. Seismotectonics concerns the science of earthquake origins. Seismic hazard is a set of judgements made about earthquake recurence and earthquake ground motion based on the available seismotectonic knowledge. The two worlds comprise different philosophies, different concepts and different terminologies. This paper reviews the key elements of seismotectonic understanding and presents a rational way in which seismotectonic data can be transformed into a seismic source model. Seismotectonic audits are proposed to allow the knowledge base to be assessment and graded, thereby providing confidence limits on the resultant hazard maps. As hazard modelling is determined by the state of seismotectonic knowledge no single hazard methodology can be universal (AU).
