“…Over the last two decades, several countries have built operational earthquake early warning (EEW) systems, including Japan (Hoshiba et al, 2008), Mexico (Espinosa-Aranda et al, 1995), Romania (Mărmureanu et al, 2011), Turkey (Erdik et al, 2003), Taiwan (Hsiao et al, 2011), and China (Peng et al, 2011). Other countries, such as the United States (Böse, Allen, et al, 2013), Italy (Satriano et al, 2011), and Switzerland (Behr et al, 2015), are currently developing systems or evaluating algorithms in their seismic real-time networks.…”
