Caltech Seismological Laboratory. The Caltech Seismological Laboratory is an arm of the Division of Geological and Planetary Sciences of the California Institute of Technology. Known as "the Seismo Lab", it has been a world center for seismology research since the 1920s, and was for many decades a go-to source for rapid (and quotable ...
US Geological Survey, Seismological Laboratory of Caltech. Dr Lucy Jones in 1994. Lucile M. Jones (born 1955) is an American seismologist and public voice for earthquake science and earthquake safety in California. [1] One of the foremost and trusted public authorities on earthquakes, [2] Jones is viewed by many in Southern California as "the ...
Berkeley Seismological Laboratory. The Berkeley Seismological Laboratory (BSL) is a research lab at the Department of Geology at the University of California, Berkeley. It was created from the Berkeley Seismographic Stations, a site on the Berkeley campus where Worldwide Standard Seismographic Network instruments were first deployed in 1959.
California Institute of Technology. Kate Hutton, nicknamed the Earthquake Lady, Dr. Kate, or Earthquake Kate, is a former staff seismologist at the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, California, where she monitored Southern California's earthquake activity for 37 years. [1]
Earthquake prediction is a branch of the science of seismology concerned with the specification of the time, location, and magnitude of future earthquakes within stated limits, [1] [a] and particularly "the determination of parameters for the next strong earthquake to occur in a region". [2] Earthquake prediction is sometimes distinguished from ...
United States Geological Survey. Susan Elizabeth Hough[pronunciation?] (born March 20, 1961 [1]) is a seismologist at the United States Geological Survey in Pasadena, California, and scientist in charge of the office.

According to noted seismologist Dr. Lucy Jones of Caltech in Pasadena, the Midland Fault where the quake originated is a notable northwest-striking fault, among a system of rifts that “bound the ...
Kerry Sieh. Kerry E. Sieh is an American geologist and seismologist . Sieh's principal research interest is earthquake geology, which uses geological layers and landforms to understand the geometries of active faults, the earthquakes they generate, and the crustal structure their movements produce. His early work on the San Andreas fault led to ...
