Northridge Earthquake Research Conference and Report (to be held in Los Angeles in January 1997)

这个项目将把对1994年1月17日北岭地震进行调查的研究人员与其他研究人员和专业人士聚集在一起，在地震三周年之际在洛杉矶举行会议。会议将审议北岭地震研究的主要科学和技术成果，为评估和减少未来事件造成的地震危险而得出的重要结论，以及我们现有知识中需要通过新研究加以解决的关键差距。为加快研究成果的传播和利用，将汇编多卷本会议记录。这份文件将提供作为国家减少地震危险计划的一部分的研究的跨学科概述，以应对美国最具破坏性的地震。此外，研究摘要和其他北岭地震资料将在万维网上提供。

This project will bring together researchers who have conducted investigations on the January 17, 1994 Northridge earthquake with other researchers and professionals in a conference to be held in Los Angeles on the third anniversary of the earthquake. The conference will consider the main scientific and technical findings of the Northridge earthquake research, the important conclusions reached for assessing and reducing seismic hazards posed by future events, and critical gaps in our current knowledge that need to be addressed by new research. To accelerate the dissemination and utilization of research results, a multi-volume proceedings will be compiled. This document will provide an interdisciplinary overview of research undertaken as part of the National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program's response to the most damaging of U.S. earthquakes. Also, research summaries and other Northridge earthquake materials will be provided on the World Wide Web.
