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

open access: yesGeological 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)

open access: yesAll 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

open access: yesGeosciences, 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

The size of the area affected by earthquake induced rockfalls: Comparison of the 1998 Krn Mountains (NW Slovenia) earthquake (Mw 5.6) with worldwide data

open access: yesActa Geographica Slovenica, 2019
The 1998 Krn Mountains Mw 5.6 earthquake had widespread effects on the natural environment, among which rockfalls prevail. All rockfalls were evaluated to estimate the total affected area. The 180 km2 area (r=7.6 km) was established and compared with two

Soft-sediment deformation structures induced by seismic activity in the San Pedro el Alto area, Acambay graben, Mexico

open access: yesRevista Mexicana de Ciencias Geológicas, 2018
Soft-sediment deformation structures identified in lacustrine sediments of the San Pedro el Alto area, within the Acambay graben, Mexico, can be attributed to Pleistocene-Holocene seismic events.

Kineochelins-A New Group of Siderophores From an Antarctic Bacterium. [PDF]

open access: yesMicrob Biotechnol
Genome‐guided analysis of an Antarctic Actinokineospora strain led to the discovery of kineochelins, a new group of siderophores involved in iron sequestration and microbial competition. Kineochelin production inhibits co‐occurring bacteria and clinically relevant yeasts, highlighting Antarctic microorganisms as promising sources of bioactive natural ...
