Seismic stratigraphy of the Ontong Java Plateau [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
The Ontong Java Plateau, a large, deep-water carbonate plateau in the western equatorial Pacific, is an ideal location for studying responses of carbonate sedimentation to the effects of changing paleoceanographic conditions.

Geospatial Assessment of the Post-Earthquake Hazard of the 2017 Pohang Earthquake Considering Seismic Site Effects

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2018
The 2017 Pohang earthquake (moment magnitude scale: 5.4) was South Korea’s second strongest earthquake in decades, and caused the maximum amount of damage in terms of infrastructure and human injuries. As the epicenters were located in regions with

Seismic Soil Characterization to Estimate Site Effects Induced by Near-Fault Earthquakes: The Case Study of Pizzoli (Central Italy) during the Mw 6.7 2 February 1703, Earthquake

open access: yesGeosciences, 2021
Many of the urban settlements in Central Italy are placed nearby active faults and, consequently, the ground motion evaluation and seismic site effects under near-fault earthquakes are noteworthy issues to be investigated. This paper presents the results

Combining Earthquake Ground Motion and Ambient Vibration Recordings to Evaluate a Local High-Resolution Amplification Model—Insight From the Lucerne Area, Switzerland

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Amplification factors are often estimated using empirical methods based on earthquake ground motion; however, especially in low-seismicity urban areas, recording a statistically representative number of high-quality signals may take years.

Geospatial Big Data-Based Geostatistical Zonation of Seismic Site Effects in Seoul Metropolitan Area

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2017
Seismic site effects are influenced mainly by geospatial uncertainties corresponding to geological or geotechnical spatial variance. Therefore, the development of a geospatial database is essential to characterize site-specific geotechnical information ...

The Importance of Assessing the Geological Site Effects of Ancient Earthquakes from the Archaeoseismological Point of View

open access: yesEng, 2023
Earthquakes have and continue to, occur worldwide, though some places are affected more than others by earthquake-induced ground shaking and the same earthquake can cause more damage in one area than in nearby locations due to site-specific geological ...

Seismic vulnerability maps of Timisoara historical center based on fragility curves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The seismic vulnerability assessment on a territorial scale requires the application of simplified procedures. Data collection is usually carried out by adopting external inspections; for this reason the knowledge gained for the considered buildings is ...

Seismic effects in archaeological sites: archaeoseismological cataloguing and quantification

open access: yesBoletín Geológico y Minero, 2018
The analysis of the damage caused by seismic events in archaeological sites provides significant information about ancient and historic earthquakes that can improve seismic hazard analysis. In this paper a methodological analysis to quantify the deformation of structural damage recorded in archaeological sites is proposed.
