Microzonation of Greater Bangkok Using Microtremor Technique

open access: yes, 2009
Bangkok, the capital city of Thailand, is located at a remote distance from seismic sources. However, it has a substantial risk from these distant earthquakes due to the ability of the underlying soft clay to amplify ground motions. Seismic microzonation

Seismic microzonation studies for Lisbon

open access: yes
Lisbon has a moderate to high seismic risk due to its seismicity, socioeconomic importance and dense urbanisation. Its complex geomorphological structure may aggravate soil amplification and cause higher structural damage.

Microzonation of Bucharest: State-of-the-Art

open access: yes, 2004
The 1940 (Mw 1⁄4 7.7) and 1977 (Mw 1⁄4 7.4) Vrancea earthquakes (Romania) inflicted heavy damage and casualties in Bucharest and the statistics indicate a recurrence interval of 25 years for Mw ‡ 7.0 events.
