early warning systems are key components of strategies to reduce risk. this research, by adopting a systematic approach in the management of the risk of desertification and by including previously developed models and systems, offers an integrated efficient structure in terms of early warning for the risk of desertification as a pilot system for semi-arid areas of west golestan province in iran...

The on-site earthquake early warning system is under development for the area near the earthquake epicenter to provide information such as earthquake magnitude, the arrival time and the intensity of the strong shaking for free field as well as the structural response, etc. The real-time strong motion signals recorded from Taiwan Strong Motion Instrumentation Program (TSMIP) were used to train n...

Landslide monitoring and early warning systems are the most successful countermeasures to reduce fatalities and economic losses from landslide hazards. The traditional strategies such as GPS and extensometers are relatively expensive and difficult to be installed in steep, high mountains. In this study, a MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical Systems) based multivariate wireless monitoring sensor unit...

Earthquake early warning (EEW) systems that issue warnings prior to the arrival of strong shaking are essential in mitigating earthquake hazard. Currently operating EEW systems work on point-source assumptions and are of limited effectiveness for large events, for which ignoring finite-source effects result in magnitude underestimation. Here, we explore the concept of characterizing rupture dim...

[1] Effective tsunami early warning for coastlines near a tsunamigenic earthquake requires notification within 5–15 minutes. We have shown recently that tsunamigenic earthquakes have an apparent rupture duration, T0, greater than about 50 s. Here we show that T0 gives more information on tsunami importance than moment magnitude, Mw, and we introduce a procedure using seismograms recorded near a...

Global Positioning System (GPS) has been proved to be a powerful tool for measuring co-seismic ground displacements with an application to seismic source inversion. Whereas most of the tsunamis are triggered by large earthquakes, GPS can contribute to the tsunami early warning system (TEWS) by helping to obtain tsunami source parameters in near real-time. Toward the end of 2012, the second phas...

Earthquake is one of the major natural calamity. So prediction of the reach of earthquake event to the various locations could result in minimizing the disaster due to it. This system contains the design of sensor system and the techniques used for detection and processing of the received signals in real time. In this system, an earthquake which is also known as a tremor or temblor is the resul...

To demonstrate the feasibility of earthquake early warning (EEW) in California, we have developed and implemented the CISN ShakeAlert demonstration system. A Decision Module combines estimates and uncertainties determined by three algorithms implemented in parallel, τc-Pd Onsite, Virtual Seismologist, and ElarmS, to calculate and report at a given time the most probable earthquake magnitude and...

Abstract Indonesia has high level of seismic activity, so determining magnitude an earthquake is important in the Earthquake Early Warning System. In System, parameter must be estimated earlier, that warnings can disseminated before S and surface waves arrive. previous studies machine learning technology used to recognized events extract hidden information with massive datasets. This study was ...
