Advances and limitations of the Environmental Seismic Intensity scale (ESI 2007) regarding near-field and far-field effects from recent earthquakes in Greece: implications for the seismic hazard assessment

Geological Society Special Publication, 2009
Abstract The new Environmental Seismic Intensity scale (ESI 2007), introduced by INQUA, incorporates the advances and achievements of palaeoseismology and earthquake geology and evaluates earthquake size and epicentre solely from the earthquake environmental effects (EEE). This scale is tested and compared with traditional existing scales for

Earthquake-triggered landslides and Environmental Seismic Intensity: insights from the 2018 Papua New Guinea earthquake (Mw 7.5)

All Earth, 2023
On the 25 February 2018, an earthquake of magnitude Mw7.5 struck the region of Porgera in Papua New Guinea (PNG), triggering numerous landslides. Planetscope images are used to derive a partial inventory of 2941 landslides in a cloud-free area of 2686 ...

Testing the Environmental Seismic Intensity Scale on Data Derived from the Earthquakes of 1626, 1759, 1819, and 1904 in Fennoscandia, Northern Europe

Geosciences, 2020
Earthquake environmental effects (EEEs) were compiled for the earthquakes of 1626, 1759, 1819, and 1904 in the Fennoscandian Peninsula, northern Europe. The principal source of information was the contemporary newspaper press. Macroseismic questionnaires

New Perspectives in the Definition/Evaluation of Seismic Hazard through Analysis of the Environmental Effects Induced by Earthquakes

Geosciences, 2020
The application of the Environmental Seismic Intensity (ESI) scale 2007 to moderate and strong earthquakes, in different geological context all over the word, highlights the importance of Earthquake Environmental Effects (EEEs) for the assessment of ...

Perceived environment of ethnic diversity as a determinant of organisational identification in the public sector: A mediation-moderation analysis [PDF]

, 2019
Purpose: As public sector managers implement the policy of employing people that broadly reflects the social make up of a local society, there is a need to ensure that employees have a positive perception of ethnic diversity.

A Study of Interstellar Gas and Stars in the Gravitationally Lensed Galaxy `The Cosmic Eye' from Rest-Frame Ultraviolet Spectroscopy [PDF]

, 2009
We report the results of a study of the rest-frame UV spectrum of the Cosmic Eye, a luminous Lyman break galaxy at z=3.07331 gravitationally lensed by a factor of 25.

Dissecting the Gaseous Halos of z~2 Damped Ly$\alpha$ Systems with Close Quasar Pairs [PDF]

, 2014
We use spectroscopy of close pairs of quasars to study diffuse gas in the circumgalactic medium (CGM) surrounding a sample of 40 Damped Lya systems (DLAs).

Master equation for the probability distribution functions of forces in soft particle packings [PDF]

, 2014
Employing molecular dynamics simulations of jammed soft particles, we study microscopic responses of force-chain networks to quasi-static isotropic (de)compressions. We show that not only contacts but also interparticle gaps between the nearest neighbors

Spatially Resolved Patchy Lyman-$\alpha$ Emission Within the Central Kiloparsec of a Strongly Lensed Quasar Host Galaxy at z = 2.8 [PDF]

, 2017
We report the detection of extended Lyman-$\alpha$ emission from the host galaxy of SDSS~J2222+2745, a strongly lensed quasar at $z = 2.8$. Spectroscopic follow-up clearly reveals extended Lyman-$\alpha$ in emission between two images of the central ...

Prompt Formation of Organic Acids in Pulse Ozonation of Terpenes on Aqueous Surfaces [PDF]

, 2010
A major atmospheric process, the gas-phase ozonation of terpenes yields suites of products via a cascade of chemically activated intermediates that ranges from primary ozonides to dioxiranes.
