This review starts with the 2004 Sumatra-Andaman earthquake and the associated Indian Ocean tsunami, then proceeds to offer long-term perspectives from earthquakes and tsunamis recorded geologically on the Pacic Rim. Histories of earthquakes and tsunamis, ...

In this paper is presented the preliminary paleoseismological trenching results of the active Kaparelli Fault (KF), which ruptured the surface during the 1981 Gulf of Corinth earthquake sequence. The aim of this study is to better understand the past earthquake ...

In this paper the submerged portions of the North Anatolia Fault system beneath the Marmara Sea were studied with high-resolution multibeam bathymetry, subbottom profiling and sediment cores. The major objectives were to learn about the seismic and tectonic ...

In this paper a new methodology is proposed for the geotechnical analysis of strength of paleoseismic shaking using liquefaction effects.

This paper is a study of paleoseismic data of the Calabria area by opening four trenches and finding evidence of several displacement events. The data presented in this paper imply the necessity to reassess the seismic hazard of the region, the local seismogenetic ...

<p>In this study has been conducted a paleoseismic investigation of serial fault rupture at one site along the 110-km rupture of the North Anatolian fault that produced the Mw 7.4 earthquake of 17 August 1999.</p>

It is completed new paleoseismic studies along the Owens Valley fault to determine the age of pre-1872 earthquakes, to better bracket Holocene slip rates, and to understand better the role of the Owens Valley fault in accommodating right-lateral shear within ...
