We conducted a new approach of mine water‐deep geological storage, the results showed that the hydrogeological feasibility of Baotashan coarse sandstone (BCS) was impressive and useful for real project. The effective porosity of BCS aquifers ranged from 1.36% to 3.46% and the capacity of mine water geological storage was 0.455–1.266 Mm3 for 1 km2 in ...

Models for reproducing the damage scenario of the Lorca earthquake [PDF]
A damage scenario modelling is developed and compared with the damage distribution observed after the 2011 Lorca earthquake. The strong ground motion models considered include five modern ground motion prediction equations (GMPEs) amply used worldwide.

An Earthquake Source Sensitivity Analysis for Tsunami Propagation in the Eastern Mediterranean [PDF]
Accurate earthquake source parameters are essential input to tsunami hazard assessment and mitigation, including early warning systems. It is difficult to make accurate assumptions of earthquake source parameters where the tectonic setting is complex. To

Embracing Data Incompleteness for Better Earthquake Forecasting [PDF]
We propose two methods to calibrate the parameters of the epidemic-type aftershock sequence (ETAS) model based on expectation maximization (EM) while accounting for temporal variation of catalog completeness. The first method allows for model calibration on long-term earthquake catalogs with temporal variation of the completeness magnitude, $m_c$. This

Scenario for a Short-Term Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Assessment (PSHA) in Chiayi, Taiwan
Using seismic activity and the Meishan earthquake sequence that occurred from 1904 to 1906, a scenario for short-term probabilistic seismic hazards in the Chiayi region of Taiwan is assessed.

Renormalization of earthquake aftershocks [PDF]
Together with the Gutenberg-Richter distribution of earthquake magnitudes, Omori's law is the best established empirical characterization of earthquake sequences and states that the number of smaller earthquakes per unit time triggered by a main shock decays approximately as the inverse of the time ($1/t^p$, with $p \approx 1$) since the main shock ...
