Record-breaking earthquake precursors.

Record-breaking earthquake precursors. - 130 p.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of California, Davis, 2011.

I introduce a framework for an earthquake forecasting system based on a generalized form of accelerating moment release (AMR), a record-breaking interoccurrence interval metric, and canonical scaling laws. The forecasting method is independent of historical seismicity, requires no "training'' period, and is universially applicable to any catalog, given sufficient data resolution. Pre-seismic acceleration, the phenomenon associated with AMR methods in which the rate of small earthquakes systematically increases in advance of a large earthquake, has in the past been demonstrated to be a possible earthquake precursor. The challenge, however, of selecting a catalog (anticipating the spatial, temporal, and magnitude extents of an incipient earthquake) without a priori knowledge of an event's epicenter and magnitude has frustrated attempts to forecast earthquakes using AMR methods. I circumvent the problem of catalog selection by showing that the parameter space of the method can be constrained by canonical scaling relations and empirically measurable values.
