Earthquake environmental effects and intensity assessment: the INQUA scale project
2007Earthquake Environmental Effects (EEEs) are any phenomena generated in the natural environment by a seismic event. An earthquake intensity scale (INQUA scale) based on EEEs was presented in MICHETTI et alii (2004). The use of this new scale, combined and integrated with traditional macroseismic scales, is recommended for many reasons including: i) the ...

In the last twenty years, the interest of scientific community towards Earthquake Environmental Effects (EEEs) has progressively increased especially in the frame of INQUA - International Union for Quaternary Research. In 2007 the ESI 2007 (Environmental Seismic Intensity scale) was published, a new intensity scale based only on EEEs resulting by a ...

The dreadful scenarios of effects caused by the recent catastrophic seismic events in very different parts of the world (from Eastern Asia to Chile and Haiti) are renewing the longlasting global debate among seismologists, geologists and engineers about the best practices and tools to achieve the most complete and reliable seismic hazard assessment. In

Re-evaluation of the 1976 Guatemala earthquake taking into account the environmental effects
2014The most destructive event in this region was the earthquake occurred on 4, February 1976 in Guatemala, associated with the Motagua fault, causing 23 000 deaths, and 77 200 injuries. This study attempts at reconstructing the coseismic effects on the environment, to better assess the intensities according to the ESI scale 2007.

Abstract The INQUA scale, based on coseismic environmental effects, appears to be a very promising tool to get long-term and reliable information on seismicity. However, it has to pass through comprehensive testing procedures. Results of the INQUA scale application to earthquake intensity calibration are presented, part of the worldwide testing of ...

The traditional approach for seismic intensity assessment based mostly on effects on humans and manmade structures often results poorly constrained, especially in the epicentral area of strong-to-large earthquakes (intensity degree >IX) when the intensity scales are afflicted by saturation, and in sparsely populated areas. The application of the recent
