The comparison of macroseismic intensity scales [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Seismology, 2009
The number of different macroseismic scales that have been used to express earthquake shaking in the course of the last 200 years is not known; it may reach three figures. The number of important scales that have been widely adopted is much smaller, perhaps about eight, not counting minor variants.

Attenuation Relationship of Macroseismic Intensities in Central Europe [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 2009
Abstract Two intensity-attenuation models for central Europe are presented in terms of mean relations and probability distributions of their variability. They are based on 14,714 intensity data points (IDP) of 31 earthquakes located in Germany, France, the Netherlands, and the Czech Republic.

Evaluation of macroseismic intensity, strong ground motion pattern and fault model of the 19 July 2019 Mw5.1 earthquake west of Athens

open access: yesJournal of Seismology, 2021
This paper presents a joint analysis of instrumental and macroseismic data regarding the 19 July 2019, Greece Mw5.1 earthquake occurred west of Athens. This earthquake ruptured a blind, south-dipping normal fault, 23 km WNW of the center of Athens, while

Macroseismic intensity hazard maps for Italy based on a recent grid source model

open access: yesBulletin of Earthquake Engineering, 2022
Seismic hazard maps from probabilistic seismic hazard analysis or PSHA collect, at different sites, the values of the (site-specific) ground motion intensity measures of interest that, taken individually, have the same exceedance return period. For large-

The damaging character of shallow 20th century earthquakes in the Hainaut coal area (Belgium) [PDF]

open access: yesSolid Earth, 2022
The present study analyses the impact and damage of shallow seismic activity that occurred from the end of the 19th century until the late 20th century in the coal area of the Hainaut province in Belgium.

Relationships between macroseismic intensity and peak ground acceleration and velocity for the Vrancea (Romania) subcrustal earthquakes

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 2021
The goal of this paper is to develop a new empirical relationship between observed macroseismic intensity and strong ground motion parameters such as peak ground acceleration (PGA) and velocity (PGV) for the Vrancea subcrustal earthquakes.

Looking for undocumented earthquake effects: a probabilistic analysis of Italian macroseismic data [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2023
A methodology to detect local incompleteness of macroseismic intensity data at the local scale is presented. In particular, the probability that undocumented effects actually occurred at a site is determined by considering intensity prediction equations (

Re-evaluation of the macroseismic effects produced by the March 4, 1977, strong Vrancea earthquake in Romanian territory

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 2013
In this paper, the macroseismic effects of the subcrustal earthquake in Vrancea (Romania) that occurred on March 4, 1977, have been re-evaluated.

Considerations on using MCS and EMS-98 macroseismic scales for the intensity assessment of contemporary Italian earthquakes

open access: yesBulletin of Earthquake Engineering, 2023
The concept of macroseismic intensity arose with the purpose of measuring the strength of an earthquake by the effects it causes on buildings, people, and domestic furnishings.

The 2017, MD = 4.0, Casamicciola Earthquake: ESI-07 Scale Evaluation and Implications for the Source Model

open access: yesGeosciences, 2021
On 21 August 2017 at 20:57 (local time) a very shallow (H = 1.2 km), moderate (Md = 4.0), earthquake hit the volcanic island of Ischia (Southern Italy), causing the death of two people.
