Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 1, February 2026.This paper introduces a procedure to estimate moment magnitude (MW) in earthquake‐induced soil liquefaction probabilistic risk assessment. The method is based on using the historical seismicity modelled with a truncated Gutenberg‐Richter (G‐R) relation, jointly with an empirical model linking the MW to the maximum source‐to‐site distance at which soil ...

Twenty‐Five Years of Probabilistic Fault Displacement Hazard Assessment
Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 63, Issue 3, September 2025.Abstract Fault displacement hazard poses significant risks to critical infrastructure such as buildings, roads, and pipelines. While some structures can tolerate a certain degree of surface displacement, others, such as buildings, are far more vulnerable. Probabilistic Fault Displacement Hazard Assessment (PFDHA) quantifies the probability of exceeding

Softening and Recovery of Near‐Surface Layers During the 2024 M7.6 Noto Earthquake
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 4, April 2025.Abstract On 1 January 2024, a devastating MJ 7.6 earthquake occurred on the Noto Peninsula in Japan. When such a strong earthquake occurs, affected near‐surface soil layers behave nonlinearly and may undergo some structural changes driven by Flow Liquefaction, Cyclic Mobility, or Slow Dynamics phenomena.
