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

Macroseismic intensity-based catalogue of earthquakes in Ecuador
Structural 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.

Inferring the depth of pre-instrumental earthquakes from macroseismic intensity data: a case-history from Northern Italy. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2019 Determining the hypocentral depth of pre-instrumental earthquakes is a long-standing geophysical issue that still awaits to be elucidated. Using very well documented recent earthquakes we found that the depth of crustal and upper-mantle events correlates

Machine learning for prompt estimation of macroseismic intensity from seismometric data in Italy [PDF]
Scientific ReportsAfter an earthquake, it is crucial to rapidly and accurately estimate macroseismic intensity to guide rescue operations and assess potential damage. The Mercalli-Cancani-Sieberg intensity scale is used to qualitatively assess the ground shaking based on ...

Comparison of vulnerabilities in typical bridges using macroseismic intensity scales
Case Studies in Construction Materials, 2022 The macroseismic intensity scale in different regions is extensively assessed in the vulnerability assessment of building structures and is rarely used to quantify the damage characteristics of group bridges. To more accurately examine the differences in

Visualization of macroseismic parameters during examination of epicentral zones of strong earthquakes [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2021 The article discusses the fragile destruction of building materials during strong earthquakes, the features of the macroseismic effect of cracking expressed in the protective coatings of buildings; it is recommended to optimize the composition based on ...

1921–2021: 100 years of macroseismic studies at BCSF
Comptes Rendus. Géoscience, 2021 The French Central Seismological Bureau (BCSF) was set up in Strasbourg in July 1921 by a governmental decision. Since then, BCSF is in charge of the macroseismic survey for the French territories.
