We compare site-specific response spectra and hazard maps from the recently-updated national seismic hazard model (2010 NSHM) and predecessor NSHM of 2002. The new model incorporates over 200 new onshore and offshore fault sources, and utilises newly-developed ...

As part of the Cuban system for landslide disaster management, a methodology was developed for regional scale landslide hazard assessment, which is a combination of different models. The method was applied in Guantánamo province at 1:100 000 scale. The analysis ...

The aim of the study was to apply hazard mapping methods which are used in Sweden, Norway and Canada for fine-grained soils, on the Åby test site and to evaluate the differences in-between them. In these countries the soil conditions are quite similar. During ...

A regional landslide hazards mapping initiative was initiated by the Geological Survey of Canada to provide information on the types and regional distribution of landslides along a proposed natural gas pipeline corridor in the Mackenzie Valley, Northwest Territories. ...

The purpose of this paper is to describe the procedures and thought processes used by coal mine geologists when determining various mineability and reserve extraction feasibility issues. The paper will also address underground geologic hazard mapping and prediction ...

The aim of the study was the development of a GIS tool, to be exploited eventually in the form of a WebGIS, as a decision support tool for flood hazard (and risk) assessment. The research was conducted in Laconia Prefecture in Peloponnesus. In this work, flood ...
