An Earthquake Catalog for the Lebanese Region
ABSTRACTThe present work aims at establishing an earthquake catalog for seismic hazard assessment in Lebanon. This catalog includes two different parts: historical earthquakes and instrumental earthquakes. The first part of the article describes the work done on the period 31 B.C.E. to the end of the nineteenth century.

A comparison of the governance landscape of earthquake risk reduction in Nepal and the Indian State of Bihar [PDF]
On 25 April 2015, a Mw 7.8 earthquake struck central Nepal, killing more than 8,700 people. An earthquake of this magnitude has long been anticipated in Nepal and the neighbouring northern Indian state of Bihar, which straddle the active Himalayan ...

Structural Damage Evaluation: Theory and Applications to Earthquake Engineering [PDF]
The further development of performance-based earthquake engineering (PBEE) is on the current agenda of the earthquake engineering community. A part of assessing the seismic performance of civil engineering structures involves estimation of seismic damage.

Simple statistics for complex Earthquake time distributions [PDF]
Here we investigated a statistical feature of earthquake time distributions in the southern California earthquake catalog. As a main data analysis tool, we used a simple statistical approach based on the calculation of integral deviation times (IDT ...

A Technology for Seismogenic Process Monitoring and Systematic Earthquake Forecasting
Earthquakes are a severe natural phenomenon that require continuous monitoring, analysis, and forecasting to mitigate their risks. Seismological data have long been used for this purpose, but geodynamic data from remote sensing of surface displacements ...

Comprehensive Earthquake Catalogs and Seismicity Parameters from Incomplete Earthquake Catalogs of Guilan Region, Iran [PDF]
Statistics of human losses and financial casualties in Guilan province as one of the most populated and strategic areas in the north of Iran have doubled the importance of having knowledge about earthquake and strategies to reduce its effect. In order to investigate seismic hazard analysis, earthquake records along with selecting the proper distance of

AN ARTIFACT IN THE KAMCHATKA EARTHQUAKE CATALOG: STUDY AND ELIMINATION [PDF]
According to the available data from the Kamchatka Regional Catalog, in the southwestern part of the Kamchatka region, deep earthquakes systematically occurred away from the main seismic focal zone. The paper shows that these anomalous events in the catalog are an artifact caused by the ambiguity of solutions for the hypocenters of earthquakes, which ...
