Preliminary engineering analysis of the August 24th 2016, ML 6.0 central Italy earthquake records
Annals of Geophysics, 2016 An earthquake of estimated local magnitude (ML) 6.0 struck central Italy on the 24th of August (01:36:32 UTC) in the vicinity of Accumoli (close to Rieti, central Italy) initiating a long-lasting seismic sequence that also featured events of larger ...

The study of ground motion amplification based on an SMASS array site
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 There is a consensus in earthquake engineering that different soil structures have significant effects on ground motion. Three main methods can be used to study this issue: theoretical analysis, numerical simulation, and earthquake records analysis ...

The Challenge of Defining Upper Bounds on Earthquake Ground Motions [PDF]
Seismological Research Letters, 2004 Recent studies to assess very long-term seismic hazard in the United States and in Europe have brought the issue of upper limits on earthquake ground motions into the arena of problems requiring attention from the engineering seismological community. Few engineering projects are considered sufficiently critical to warrant the use of annual frequencies ...

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise The Chicxulub asteroid impact at the Cretaceous–Paleogene (K–Pg) boundary triggered a mass extinction 66 million years ago. Ferns thrived in the aftermath of the extinction, evidenced by the well‐documented “fern spore spike.” However, fern macrofossil records across the K–Pg boundary are less understood.

Inferring Earthquake Ground‐Motion Fields with Bayesian Networks [PDF]
Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 2017 Bayesian networks (BNs) have the ability to perform inference on uncertain variables given evidence on observed quantities, which makes them relevant mathematical tools for the updating of ground-motion fields based on strong-motion records or macroseismic observations.
