The recent 2007 Portugal earthquake (Mw=6.1) in the seismotectonic context of the SW Atlantic area [PDF]
, 2007 An event of magnitude Mw 6.1(EMSC) occurred on 12/02/2007 at 10:35 UTC off coast of South-Western Portugal. The earthquake had its epicentre in the eastern Horseshoe Abyssal Plain, at 175 km South-West of San Vicente Cape (Figure 1).

Rupture of the 1949 Khait Earthquake on a Cryptic Fault: Implications for Earthquake Hazard
Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 10, October 2025.Abstract The 1949 Mw 7.6 Khait earthquake, Tajikistan, was one of the most destructive of the Pamir—Tien Shan region, killing over 7,000 people by building collapse and landsliding. It occurred at the transition between the Pamir and Tien Shan mountain ranges, which converge along the narrow Vashkh river valley.

Use of combined scaling of real seismic records to obtain code-compliant sets of accelerograms: application for the city of Bucharest [PDF]
, 2012 A recently proposed method for scaling real accelerograms to obtain sets of code-compliant records is assessed. The method, which uses combined time and amplitude scaling, corroborated with an imposed value of an instrumental, Arias type intensity ...

Correlation between macroseismic intensities and seismic ground motion parameters
Annals of Geophysics, 1997 We propose correlation relations between the macrosesimic intensity felt in Italy and displacement, velocity, acceleration, design ground acceleration obtained from synthetic seismograms modelling the ground motion generated by past seismicity. The results are in good agreement with empirical relations given by other authors and compare quite well with

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 54, Issue 11, Page 2927-2946, September 2025.ABSTRACT Over recent decades, Italy has been affected by multiple earthquakes, revealing the significant vulnerability of existing structures. These seismic events have resulted in notable human and economic losses, emphasising the importance of evaluating the impact of one or more seismic events on various building types.

National borders earthquakes: an attempt at intensity maps unification
Annals of Geophysics, 1994 In this paper the problem of unification of macroseismic maps across national borders is discussed. Up to now some attempts in this way have been carried out, evidencing the difficulties present in such analysis.

Ground Motion Estimates Updated by Building Damage
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 54, Issue 11, Page 2981-2997, September 2025.ABSTRACT Classical ShakeMap relies on a conditional Gaussian random field approach to earthquake shaking estimation, where the mean and covariance matrix are derived from a ground motion model, a correlation model for intra‐event residuals, and the recordings from seismic monitoring stations.

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 ...
