| Abstract: | Indonesia is situated at the juncture of three major tectonic plates: the Eurasian, the Pacific and the Indo-Australian plates. As a result, many parts of the country are classified as being at a high risk of earthquake and tsunami disasters. In Indonesia, the Bureau of Meteorology and Geophysics (BMG) is the agency responsible for the monitoring of tectonic earthquakes and tsunamis induced by them. For this purpose, BMG operates seismic networks throughout Indonesia. In order to serve better, BMG will have to improve its monitoring system. Many agencies and universities in Indonesia have done research in the field of seismology, including seismotectonics, earthquake hazards, and so on. Joint research has been done with agencies/universities from abroad. Considering the fact that some earthquake prone areas in Indonesia suffer from frequent disasters, a study on earthquake prediction in some areas of interest would contribute to achieving some long-term goals of the Bureau. |
