9411998 Gordon The primary goal of this research is to estimate the full cost of business interruptions associated with the Northridge earthquake, the first moderate to large earthquake with an epicenter inside a large metropolitan area since the Long Beach earthquake of 1933. Little research has been conducted on the business interruption effects of a major earthquake as opposed to damage estimates to structures and lifelines. This is the first opportunity, then, to undertake an ex-post analysis if business interruptions resulting from a major urban earthquake. Since it involves the collection of perishable data, this project is being funded under NSF's Small Grants for Exploratory Research program. ***

9411998戈登这项研究的主要目标是估计与北岭地震有关的业务中断的全部成本，这是自1933年长滩地震以来第一次震中位于大都市地区的中到大地震。与对建筑物和生命线的损失估计相反，关于大地震的业务中断影响的研究很少。因此，如果一场大城市地震导致业务中断，这是进行事后分析的第一次机会。由于它涉及易腐烂数据的收集，该项目由美国国家科学基金会的探索性研究小额赠款计划资助。***
