Beyond Deaths and Dollars: Modeling Requirements to Support Equity‐Focused Disaster Risk Management

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 1, February 2026.
The disaster risk modeling framework has long focused on quantifiable impact metrics to assess a hazard's potential direct effects, such as fatalities (deaths) and economic losses (dollars). Over time, as the framework has expanded to inform both public and private applications, additional impact metrics that more directly consider the societal roots ...

Revised History of Pleistocene Vertical Motions in NE Sicily and Southern Calabria, Italy, From 40Ar/39Ar Dating and Fault Zone Morphology

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Long‐term rates of crustal uplift in southern Calabria and NE Sicily are incompletely understood due to limited information about the age of marine terraces at 1.0–1.3 km above sea level (asl). This study provides a new constraint on high‐elevation terrace ages through integrated analysis of geochronology, stratigraphy, shoreline modeling, and

Attenuating intensities

Annals of Geophysics, 1996
The study presents a methodology in which fractile distances for a given macroseismic intensity are used as a point measure on which to do attenuation characterization.

SPATIAL DISTRIBUTION OF FELT INTENSITIES FOR PORTUGAL EARTHQUAKES [PDF]

The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2019
Macroseismic intensity is a parameter of the severity of ground movement evaluated in terms of the effects that earthquakes produce on people, buildings and the environment, constituting an extremely important information source for the seismologist and ...

Geological and Historical‐Based Approaches to Define Scenario Earthquake: Case‐Studies and Application at Municipality‐Scale in Italy

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 54, Issue 15, Page 3828-3845, December 2025.
ABSTRACT This study compares two approaches for determining earthquake magnitude (M) and source‐to‐site distance (R) to assess seismic scenarios in Italy. The first method relies on geological criteria from the Italian seismogenic sources database (DISS3.3.0), while the second method uses historical earthquakes from the DBMI‐CPTI15 Italian catalogue ...

The Te Puninga Fault, Hauraki Plains: a new seismic source in the low seismicity northern region of New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 609-627, December 2025.
ABSTRACT In this study, we provide the first field‐based assessment of the seismic potential of the Te Puninga Fault, Hauraki Plains, Waikato region. Initially considered to be part of the nearby Kerepehi Fault, our new mapping and field data suggest the Te Puninga Fault is independent.

A predictive model for household displacement duration after disasters

Risk Analysis, Volume 45, Issue 12, Page 4289-4317, December 2025.
Abstract According to recent Household Pulse Survey data, roughly 1.1% of households were displaced due to disasters in the United States in recent years. Although most households returned relatively quickly, 20% were displaced for longer than 1 month, and 14% had not returned by the time of the survey.

Reassessment of the historical seismic activity with major impact on S. Miguel Island (Azores) [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2003
On account of its tectonic setting, both seismic and volcanic events are frequent in the Azores archipelago. During the historical period earthquakes and seismic swarms of tectonic and/or volcanic origin have struck S.

Attenuation of Macroseismic Intensity for Crustal Romanian Earthquakes: Calibrating the Bakun-Wentworth’s Method

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environment, 2019
The purpose of the present study is to elaborate a new model of the macroseismic intensity attenuation using all observed intensities data for the crustal earthquakes in Romania and then, based on this relationship, to calibrate the Bakun-Wentworth ...
