Ground effects of the 18 October 1992, Murindo earthquake (NW Colombia), using the Environmental Seismic Intensity Scale (ESI 2007) for the assessment of intensity [PDF]
, 2009 The macroseismic intensity of the 18 October 1992 Murindo-Atrato earthquake that affected the northwestern states of Colombia (Choco\ub4 and Antioquia) is reassessed using the newly developed INQUA Environmental Seismic Intensity Scale (ESI 2007) which ...

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.This article aims at exploring and validating the use of 3D physics‐based simulated ground motions as seismic input for the derivation of seismic fragility curves based on nonlinear dynamic numerical analyses. Fragility curves are computed for a set of pre‐code (i.e., designed only for vertical loads), reinforced concrete building types representative ...

Investigation of the Relationship of Earthquakes and Underground Waste Disposal in The El Dorado Area, Arkansas [PDF]
, 1991 From December, 1983 to September, 1989 twelve small earthquakes were recorded for the El Dorado, Arkansas area. Magnitudes of these earthquakes were well below damaging levels.

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract Earthquakes in intraplate regions are often scattered and difficult to associate with specific geological structures, requiring detailed surveys to identify active faults. Improving knowledge of local seismicity in these areas is essential for accurate seismic hazard assessment and for safe planning of economic activities that could affect ...

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.

USGS “Did You Feel It?”—Science and Lessons From 20 Years of Citizen Science-Based Macroseismology
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020 The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) “Did You Feel It?” (DYFI) system is an automatic method for rapidly collecting macroseismic intensity (MI) data from internet users’ shaking and damage reports and for generating intensity maps immediately following felt

Integrating strong-motion recordings and twitter data for a rapid shakemap of macroseismic intensity
, 2020 Rapid estimation of the intensity of seismic ground motions is crucial for an effective rapid response when an earthquake occurs. To this end, maps of updated grond-motion fields (or shakemaps) are produced by using observations or measurements in near ...
