QUAKES manages the regional seismograph network in Queensland and two international seismic stations and uses supercomputer facilities to develop approaches to enable realistic computer simulations of geophysical phenomena such as seismic waves, fracture, and earthquakes. The Queensland University Advanced Centre for Earthquake Studies (QUAKES) is a world-class research centre investigating the physics of earthquakes through the use of computer simulations. QUAKES performs fundamental geophysical research with the aim of developing comprehensive methodologies for forecasting earthquakes and to improve understanding of the earthquake mechanism. As the headquarters of the APEC Cooperation for Earthquake Simulation (ACES), QUAKES is leading advances in geophysical simulation in collaboration with institutions in China, Japan, USA, and Australia.
