Seismic Hazard vs. Seismic Risk
Seismological Research Letters, 2009The world is full of uncertainties, ranging from climate change, financial markets, natural disasters, terror attacks, and personal health to the measurements of the most fundamental elements of all: time and space. Dealing with uncertainty is a given in life, and any decision is always made under a certain degree of uncertainty.

This chapter highlights the significance of Ground Motion Prediction Equations to estimate the seismic hazard at a region based on earthquake magnitude and source to site distance. A glimpse of both deterministic and probabilistic approaches for hazard assessment is presented along with a discussion on the logic tree framework.

This section deals with the seismic hazard computation process. It should be noted that, in cases where the seismic hazard to be calculated includes site-specific soil amplifications, this process may include two steps: hazard calculation for reference rock conditions and subsequent site response analysis to combine the local soil response with the ...

This chapter gives an overview of how earthquakes lead to different hazards affecting a site, and how probabilistic hazard estimates are evaluated in seismic assessment and retrofit projects. It describes the characteristics of an earthquake that lead to ground shaking at a site, including source, wave passage and site effects, and quantitative metrics

A rapid increase of injection‐induced earthquakes (IIE) is often linked to a higher level of seismic hazard. In this study, we compare the geodetically defined moment rate to seismicity distribution in western Canada where significant IIE are observed ...
