Abstract of the 251th meeting of CCEP
The 251th meeting of the Coordinating Committee for Earthquake Prediction (CCEP) was held at the Kanto Regional Survey Department of the GSI on May 21, 2026. And the meeting was onsite and online confference. Firstly, the nationwide monitoring data of the seismic activity was reported. Secondary, the CCEP members discussed the intensive discussion subject ”Earthquake Research Utilizing Information Science” was explained. * The materials on this site are written in Japanese.
