The analysis of a large number of macroseismic fields of past and recent<br />earthquakes in Southern Italy allows a wider check of a previous interpretative<br />model of the anisotropy of the regional macroseismic field, in the context of a

Web-based macroseismic intensity study in Turkey – entries on Ekşi Sözlük [PDF]
Abstract. Ekşi Sözlük is one of the most visited websites in Turkey. Registered users of the website share their knowledge about any topic. In this study, we collect the user entries on the topic of 20 earthquakes in Turkey and the surrounding area. Entries with city and district level information are converted to intensity values.

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

Post‐Event Ground Motion Estimation using Graph Neural Networks
Accurate ground motion (GM) estimates are essential for forensic analysis of structural damage following major earthquakes when direct recordings at the location(s) of interest are unavailable. Contemporary post‐event GM estimation methods often leverage nearby observations to constrain estimates of intensity measures (IMs); however, existing ...

Critical considerations on the evaluation of macroseismic effects
The definition of some of the standards used for evaluating local effects<br />and optimizing the relative macroseismic procedures are critically<br />considered, also from the different interpretative points of view to have<br />come ...

Macroseismic observations can be useful to study pre-instrumental earthquakes when paleoseismological analysis are not viable for various reasons (e.g., erosion or lack of sedimentation).

Validation of ShakeMaps Created From Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) Velocities
Ground velocity observations generated through a time difference of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) phase observables and orbits have been shown to be comparable to seismic recordings without clipping during intense ground motions. Computing GNSS velocities is also computationally scalable and increases the density of ground motion ...

Observations of strong ground motion during large earthquakes are generally made with strong-motion accelerometers. These observations have a critical role in early warning systems, seismic engineering, source physics studies, basin and site ...

Review article: Review of fragility analyses for major building types in China with new implications for intensity–PGA relation development [PDF]
The evaluation of the seismic fragility of buildings is one key task of earthquake safety and loss assessment. Many research reports and papers have been published over the past 4 decades that deal with the vulnerability of buildings to ground motion ...

Active Tectonics of the Eastern and Southern Alps ‐ Crustal Response to Deep Processes? A Review
Abstract Owing to the low N‐S convergence rates between Adria and Europe, crustal deformation rates in the Alps and its forelands are low. Active tectonics are, therefore, difficult to study, especially as non‐tectonic landscape forming processes can erase or modify the tectonic surface imprint. Large‐scale and dense seismological data recently offered
