Abstract of the 148th meeting of CCEP

 The 148th meeting of the Coordinating Committee for Earthquake Prediction (CCEP) was held at the Kanto Regional Survey Department of the GSI on Aug. 19,2002. Universities and national research institutes reported and discussed the results of observations and investigations about seismic and crustal activities in Japan. Main topics of discussions are listed below.

• Seismic activities of Japan.
