Abstract of the 188th meeting of CCEP

 The 188th meeting of the Coordinating Committee for Earthquake Prediction (CCEP) was held at the Kanto Regional Survey Department of the GSI on Nov. 19, 2010. At first, Observation data and research results about seismic activities and crustal deformations in Japan were reported and discussed. Moreover, "Plate Boundary" as intensive discussion subject were discussed. Finally, purport of next intensive discussion subject "Monitoring in the sea area" was explained.

• Deliberation about crusutal activity monitoring.

1.General crusutal activities.
