Abstract: In 1995, the authors of an influential report concluded that southern California had an ‘earthquake deficit’ —that is, a model of seismicity predicted that twice the number of earthquakes of magnitude 6 to 7 should have occurred than was evident from a catalogue going back to 1850. That deficit now disappears with a re-evaluation of both the model and the catalogue.
