During 2017–2018, the National Seismic Hazard Model for the conterminous United States
was updated as follows:(1) an updated seismicity catalog was incorporated, which includes …

As recently as 2015, it was common in the scientific literature to find assertions that the risk

Abstract The 2013 European Seismic Hazard Model (ESHM13) results from a community-
based probabilistic seismic hazard assessment supported by the EU-FP7 project “Seismic …

Preparation of natural hazards maps are vital and essential for urban development. The
main scope of this study is to synthesize natural hazard maps in a single multi-hazard map …

The development of most unconventional oil and gas resources relies upon subsurface
injection of very large volumes of fluids, which can induce earthquakes by activating slip on …

Since its inception in the 1960s, probabilistic seismic-hazard analysis (PSHA)(Cornell, 1968;
McGuire, 2004, 2008) has emerged as the principal methodology for assessing the potential …

Multi-hazard assessment modeling comprises an essential tool in any plan that aims to
mitigate the impact of future natural disasters. For a particular area they can be generated by …

Earthquake early warning (EEW) is a relatively new strategy for reducing disaster risk and
increasing resilience to seismic hazard in urban settings. EEW systems provide real-time …
