Use of the ESI-2007 scale to evaluate the 2003 Boumerdès earthquake (North Algeria)
Annals of Geophysics, 2016 In this study, we applied the environmental seismic intensity (ESI-2007) scale to a major recent Algerian earthquake. The ESI-2007 scale is an effective tool to assess the seismic hazard and has been applied to onshore earthquakes.
