Worse yet, even this triple disaster often did not fit the definition of the seismic event defined by the bond indentures.

(d) Seismic science

(iv) Seismic sources.

Before the disaster, Japan issued about 1.5 billion in earthquake related catastrophe bonds as a risk management device the debt is canceled if a precisely defined seismic event occurs.

Everyone feels that a seismic shift is under way.

In geology, it is important in the study of seismic waves.

Old nuclear power plants in seismic zones have a similar payoff structure.

The seismic sources would be launched in the same way as the penetrators.

For example, with regard to the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty, Japan has implemented, inter alia, human resources development programmes in developing countries by offering global seismic observation training and providing seismic observation instruments.

The sensor shall be capable to match a seismic signature to the intended target.

(d) To study seismic processes in the depths of the Sun by observing global oscillations.

A seismic shift is at hand, and America s recent fiscal follies may well be the tipping point.

Impacts of seismic activity on building in Malaysia has heighten interest since the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake.

In addition, if there are discontinuities between layers in the rock or sediment, seismic waves are reflected.

Seismic hazards may be significantly greater on reclaimed wetlands and on landfills than in other areas of an urban centre.

(c) Molniya SM study of the optical phenomena in the Earth's atmosphere and ionosphere associated with thunderstorms and seismic activity.

Similarly, the hosting of a centre for collaboration on seismic risk issues is planned by the Islamic Republic of Iran.

In this connection, Poland has expressed its readiness to include Polish seismic stations as auxiliary stations in the international monitoring system.

The deployment and use of this seismic network is considered one of the most challenging aspects of the Don Quijote mission.

(iii) Seismic Vibration cannot currently locate their targets precisely their use in conjunction with other sensors appears therefore to be indispensable.

Furthermore, risk assessment should be linked to individual plants risk factors, such as location in a seismic zone, secondary containment, safety redundancies, etc.
