Abstract

The National Science Foundation announces that some additional funds for the 1978 fiscal year have been allocated to the Geophysics Program to augment its program of fundamental research on the nature of earthquakes. This increased support is in response to Option B of the September 1976 Newmark‐Stever report to the President's science adviser, entitled ‘Earthquake Prediction and Hazard Mitigation—Options for USGS and NSF Programs.’ The report is available from the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, D. C. 20402 (price $1.90, stock no. 038‐000‐ 00332‐1) and outlines an NSF‐USGS initiative in earthquake hazard reduction.
