Site Amplification Analysis of Dushanbe City Area, Tajikistan to Support Seismic Microzonation
Geosciences, 2021 Being a country exposed to strong seismicity, the estimation of seismic hazard in Tajikistan is essential for urbanized areas, such as the rapidly growing capital city Dushanbe. To ensure people’s safety and adequate construction work, a detailed seismic

Assessing infrequent large earthquakes using geomorphology and geodesy in the Malawi Rift [PDF]
, 2015 In regions with large, mature fault systems, a characteristic earthquake model may be more appropriate for modelling earthquake occurrence than extrapolating from a short history of small, instrumentally observed earthquakes using the Gutenberg–Richter ...

Valuation of extinction parameters of anisotropic macro-seismic wave intensities
Геофизический журнал, 2014 A method is proposed for calculating the parameters of macroseismic intensity decay of anisotropic fields. Macroseismic field are described by the model of Blake-Shebalin to the attenuation depending on the azimuth direction «epicenter-point-score ...

Interpreting intraplate tectonics for seismic hazard : a UK historical perspective [PDF]
, 2012 It is notoriously difficult to construct seismic source models for probabilistic seismic hazard assessment in intraplate areas on the basis of geological information, and many practitioners have given up the task in favour of purely seismicity-based ...
