Determination of parameters of historical earthquakes based on macroseismic data

Российский сейсмологический журнал [Russian Journal of Seismology], 2020
The paper attempts to determine the main parameters of historical earthquakes of the Carpathian region based on macroseismic data, using the macroseismic field equation, indirect parameters, and complex comparison with modern earthquakes. So far, the main source of information about the parameters of historical earthquakes in the Carpathian region has ...

Observational Seismic Fragility Models for Unreinforced Masonry Buildings Based on Building‐by‐Building Damage Data From the 2012 Emilia Earthquakes

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 54, Issue 11, Page 2927-2946, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Over recent decades, Italy has been affected by multiple earthquakes, revealing the significant vulnerability of existing structures. These seismic events have resulted in notable human and economic losses, emphasising the importance of evaluating the impact of one or more seismic events on various building types.

Intensity assignments from historical earthquake data: issues of certainty and quality

Annals of Geophysics, 1998
The use of macroseismic data in assessing parameters for historical earthquakes for use in seismic hazard assessment has thrown more attention on the way in which these data are treated.

Ground Motion Estimates Updated by Building Damage

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 54, Issue 11, Page 2981-2997, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Classical ShakeMap relies on a conditional Gaussian random field approach to earthquake shaking estimation, where the mean and covariance matrix are derived from a ground motion model, a correlation model for intra‐event residuals, and the recordings from seismic monitoring stations.

From historical earthquake records to intensity value: some results of a study

Annals of Geophysics, 1995
The use of historical records to assess macroseismic intensity involves problems seldom evidenced. This paper deals with the problems connected with the use of macroseismic scales, with particular attention to MSK 81 and the EMS 92, in the case of two ...

A seismic vulnerability index method for masonry schools in the province of Yazd [PDF]

, 2014
School facilities in Iran, in particular masonry schools, have shown poor performance during past earthquakes and can be identified as the most vulnerable buildings to the earthquakes.

The role of instrumental versus macroseismic locations for earthquakes of the last century: a discussion based on the seismicity of the North-Western Apennines (Italy)

Annals of Geophysics, 2005
Many seismological observatories began to record and store seismic events in the early years of the twentieth century, contributing to the compilation of very valued databases of both phase pickings and waveforms.

Back to the Source: Connecting the Seismological Observations of Le Teil Earthquake (Mw 4.9, 2019/11/11, France) to the Local Geology

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract The spatial distribution of seismicity in active fault zones depends primarily on the geometry of the fault networks. However, recent advances suggest that seismic activity may also be controlled by the rheology of the geological units surrounding fault zones. In the present work, we use seismological and geological analyses to investigate the

The 1356 Basel earthquake: an interdisciplinary revision [PDF]

, 2017
Within historical times one of the most damaging events in intra-plate Europe was the 1356 Basel earthquake. Given its significance for assessing regional seismic hazard in central Europe, an interdisciplinary project was launched in 2005 to re-explore ...

Millennial Slip‐Rates Variability of Along‐Strike Active Faults in the Italian Southern Apennines Revealed by Cosmogenic 36Cl Dating of Fault Scarps

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract We present slip versus time histories derived from in situ 36Cl cosmogenic dating for three active normal faults in the southern Apennines, Italy. In this region the total extensional strain is accommodated by either a small number of faults located across strike from each other or, in places, a single fault where no other active faults exist ...
