Klein: Role of Simple Models? Do these first?
-
Use this to test importance of friction laws etc.
-
look at hierarchy of overlapping models: slider, CA, full featured continuum simulation
-
robust features in simple models can either be wrong or irrelevant!
-
To get believable results, one must have multiple efforts

Whitcomb: Climate community has a multiscale activity where simulations at several scales are linked via boundary conditions
|
| 3 |
Before large scale simulations, need to clarify disagreements in basic simulations ?
|

Sammis: science is critical
-
science is simple and elegant
-
makes predictions
-
can be falsified
|
| 5 |
Large catalog of observations in need of modeling
-
data patterns (in seismicity) suggest there is something to predict
|

Lisa Grant, Kerry Sieh on integrating data with GEM
-
larger earthquakes are most important societally
-
data + models,GEMCI gives validated predictions
|
| 7 |
Many gaps in data space needed for GEM -- 10 year proposal from Kerry
|
| 8 |
They need good database technology (GEMXML)
