Development of a seismic site-response zonation map for the Netherlands [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2022 Earthquake site response is an essential part of seismic hazard assessment, especially in densely populated areas. The shallow geology of the Netherlands consists of a very heterogeneous soft sediment cover, which has a strong effect on the amplitude of ...

Azimuth-Dependent Site Amplification
Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 1992 The strong motion accelerograms recorded at two stations of SMART-1 array have been analyzed to investigate azimuth-dependent site amplification. Fifteen earthquakes which triggered both accelerographs at rock site E02 and soil site E01 were selected for this study.

Exploring inferred geomorphological sediment thickness as a new site proxy to predict ground-shaking amplification at regional scale: application to Europe and eastern Türkiye [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System SciencesTo test whether a globally inferred sediment thickness value from geomorphological studies can be used as a proxy to predict earthquake site amplification, we derive site-amplification models from the relation between empirical amplification for sites ...

Gene amplification and insecticide resistance [PDF]
, 2011 Pesticide resistance in arthropods has been shown to evolve by two main mechanisms, the enhanced production of metabolic enzymes, which bind to and/or detoxify the pesticide, and mutation of the target protein, which makes it less sensitive to the ...

Analysis of strong-motion data of the 1990 Eastern Sicily earthquake
Annals of Geophysics, 1995 The strong motion accelerograms recorded during the 1990 Eastern Sicily earthquake have been analyzed to investigate source and attenuation parameters. Peak ground motions (peak acceleration, velocity and displacement) overestimate the values predicted ...

Machine learning based ground motion site amplification prediction
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023 Site condition impact on seismic ground motion has been a complex but important subject in earthquake hazard analysis. Traditional studies on site amplification effect are either based on site response via wave propagation simulation or regression ...
