Did They Feel It? Legacy Macroseismic Data Illuminates an Engimatic 20th Century Earthquake

open access: yesEarth and Space Science
The challenges and the importance of preserving legacy instrumental records of earthquakes are now well‐recognized (e.g., Richards & Hellweg, 2020, https://doi.org/10.1785/0220200053).

Models of the macroseismic field earthquakes and their influence on seismic hazard assessment values for Central Asia

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2020
Seismic intensity assessment in points of a macroseismic scale plays an important role for researching the seismic history of areas characterized by active seismicity, as well as for construction (and updating) of seismic zoning maps in various scales ...

Integrating macroseismic intensity distributions with a probabilistic approach: an application in Italy [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2021
The geographic distribution of earthquake effects quantified in terms of macroseismic intensities, the so-called macroseismic field, provides basic information for several applications including source characterization of pre-instrumental earthquakes and

Rothé’s legacy to the French Central Seismological Bureau (BCSF): a history of hegemony in French seismicity

open access: yesComptes Rendus. Géoscience, 2021
The French Central Seismological Bureau (BCSF) is celebrating its centenary this year. However, from the macroseismic studies point of view, which is the main activity of BCSF, it would be more accurate to celebrate its 92nd anniversary of activity. This

A thorough review of the 5 May 1990 Potenza (Southern Italy) earthquake: constraints from macroseismology and insights from hydrology [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences
The Potenza earthquake of 5 May 1990 (Mw 5.77) was a significant event for southern Italy, despite its moderate magnitude and limited damage. Previous macroseismic studies of this earthquake contained inconsistent and often exaggerated macroseismic ...

Macroseismic intensity-based catalogue of earthquakes in Ecuador

open access: yesStructural Mechanics of Engineering Constructions and Buildings, 2022
Earthquake magnitude catalogues and peak ground acceleration (PGA) maps for Ecuador may be found in several studies, however, there are rare works on the characterisation of the epicentral macroseismic intensities associated with earthquakes.
