A possible combination of Earthquake Early Warning (EEW) and Neo-deterministic Seismic Hazard Assessment (NDSHA) is proposed to a new warning model. The aim is to provide a differentiated warning alert to various end-users based on the results of seismic hazard assessment evaluation. With the great attention and resources put into the…
The Corsica-Sardinia lithospheric block is commonly considered a region with very low seismicity. This hypothesis has recently been challenged by pattern recognition analysis of morphostructural evidence, for the identification of seismogenic nodes capable of M5 +, and the revised historical seismicity. All this made it possible to supply reliable seismic…
The July flooding disaster in Central Europe affecting developed industrial nations once again shows the limitations of post-disaster emergency management. Looking back to recent events like the COVID-19 pandemic, the latest flooding and remembering the failures to cope with big earthquake and tsunami disasters in the past any person of…
The book “Earthquakes and Sustainable Infrastructure: Neo-Deterministic (NDSHA) Approach Guarantees Prevention Rather Than Cure” edited by Giuliano F. Panza, Vladimir G. Kossobokov, Efraim Laor and Benedetto De Vivo, aims to communicate in one volume the “state-of-the-art” scientific knowledge on earthquakes and related seismic risks. PanzaetalElsevierBook
by Jens-Uwe Klügel, PhD Italy was hit again by a damaging earthquake during the night of August 24, 2016. Different values of magnitude have been assigned to the quake by different agencies ranging from M6 to M6.2. The estimated number of human losses is still unclear …
by Jens-Uwe Kluuml;gel, PhD ISSO members discussed several ideas how to get a better link between seismology and earthquake engineering. In compliance with our position paper we want to prepare the society to be prepared for the worst possible event that can be supported by science. A reasonable way to…
