Causality Lens™- Central America
Central America lies at one of Earth’s most dynamic structural frontiers- where the Cocos Plate drives beneath the Caribbean in a chain of deep, convergent forces.
The Causality Lens™ applies Subterrane’s proprietary gravitational and tectonic synthesis to this region, generating a 50-year earthquake forecast that reveals how stress, structure, and time interact as one continuum.
This release forms part of Subterrane’s global initiative to anchor long-term stability planning to the planet’s underlying physical architecture- from continental infrastructure to sovereign-scale resilience.
Subterrane Causality Lens™: Dual-Timescale Taiwan Earthquake Forecasting
This animation demonstrates Subterrane’s proprietary Causality Lens™ technology for multi-temporal seismic hazard assessment. The visualization compares two complementary forecasting approaches:
Left Panel – 50-Year Operational Forecast:
- Real-time stress accumulation modeling across Taiwan’s active fault network
- Physics-based earthquake probability calculations
- Dynamic magnitude-frequency relationships
- Operational seismic hazard assessment for infrastructure planning and disaster preparedness
Right Panel – 1-Million-Year Tectonic Model:
- Long-term fault interaction and crustal deformation patterns
- Structural evolution under persistent plate boundary forces
- Identification of emerging fault connectivity and seismic corridors
- Geological context for contemporary seismic hazards
Scientific Foundation:
Building upon Subterrane’s 2019 Taiwan research that identified the regional sinistral fault system controlling Chi-Chi earthquake dynamics, the Causality Lens™ integrates:
- Multi-scale fault connectivity analysis
- Stress transfer physics between fault segments
- Philippine Sea Plate convergence dynamics
- Empirical constraints from historical seismicity
Applications:
- Critical infrastructure resilience planning
- Insurance risk modeling
- Urban development guidelines
- Emergency response preparedness
- Long-term seismic hazard mapping
