The GSHAP Global Seismic Hazard Map

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 1999
The Global Seismic Hazard Assessment Program (GSHAP), a demonstration project of the UN/International Decade of Natural Disaster Reduction, was conducted in the 1992-1998 period with the goal of improving global standards in seismic hazard assessment ...

State of the art of seismic risk and loss assessment in structures [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2021
Earthquakes are known as one of the disasters that have fatal consequences for human safety. However, inevitably, the earthquake itself is not the leading cause of the losses suffered by humans, both material and soul.

Interpreting intraplate tectonics for seismic hazard : a UK historical perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

Seismic Rigoletto: Hazards, risks and seismic roulette applications

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Neo-Deterministic Seismic Hazard Assessment (NDSHA), dating back to the turn of the Millennium, is the new multi-disciplinary scenario- and physics-based approach for the evaluation of seismic hazard and safety–guaranteeing “prevention rather than cure.”

Assessing infrequent large earthquakes using geomorphology and geodesy in the Malawi Rift [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

The 2013 European Seismic Hazard Model: key components and results [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The 2013 European Seismic Hazard Model (ESHM13) results from a community-based probabilistic seismic hazard assessment supported by the EU-FP7 project “Seismic Hazard Harmonization in Europe” (SHARE, 2009–2013).

Probabilistic seismic hazard assessments for Myanmar and its metropolitan areas

open access: yesGeoscience Letters, 2023
Although Myanmar is an earthquake-prone country, there has not been proposed an official national seismic hazard map. Thus, this study conducted a probabilistic seismic hazard assessment for Myanmar and some of its metropolitan areas.

Fault System-Based Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Assessment of a Moderate Seismicity Region: The Eastern Betics Shear Zone (SE Spain)

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Including faults as seismogenic sources in probabilistic seismic hazard assessments (PSHA) has turned into a common practice as knowledge of active faults is improving.
