Mapping Europe's Seismic Hazard [PDF]
Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2014 From the rift that cuts through the heart of Iceland to the complex tectonic convergence that causes frequent and often deadly earthquakes in Italy, Greece, and Turkey to the volcanic tremors that rattle the Mediterranean, seismic activity is a prevalent and often life‐threatening reality across Europe. Any attempt to mitigate the seismic risk faced by
