Community Modeling Environment (CME)
The SCEC Community Modeling Environment (CME) Project started in 2001 as a National Science Foundation (NSF) Information Technology Research (ITR) award to PI: Thomas Jordan, Bernard Minster, Carl Kesselman, and Reagan Moore. The CME collaboration applies advanced computer science technology to develop improved seismic hazard analysis. CME researchers develop structural models of California faults and geology, develop and validate rupture physics models, perform large-scale regional wave propagation simulations, collaborate with engineers studying engineering response to ground motions, and integrate computational improvements into probabilistic seismic hazard calculations.

Recent Earthquake Information
An important goal of SCEC earthquake research is to reduce the hazard from future earthquakes by developing physics-based predictive models of earthquake processes.
