The problem of evaluation of the maximum possible regional earthquake magnitude (M
max) is reviewed and analyzed. Two aspects of this topic are specified: statistical, and …

Previous studies showed evidence that the Sorgenfrei-Tornquist Zone (STZ) in northern
Denmark is seismically active and fuelled the demand for further analyses of the fault …

In seismically-active regions, mapping active and potentially-active faults is the first step to
assess seismic hazards and site selection for paleoseismic studies that will estimate …

Significant loss of life and property has occurred as a result of many destructive earthquakes
in both historical and instrumental periods in Turkey, which is located on the Alpine …

Abstract We present the Malawi Active Fault Database (MAFD), an open‐access (https://doi.
org/10.5281/zenodo. 5507190) geospatial database of 113 fault traces in Malawi and …

Seismic hazard maps are crucial for earthquake mitigation and mostly rely on probabilistic
seismic hazard analysis (PSHA). However, the practise and value of PSHA are under …

Paleoearthquake studies that inform seismic hazard rely on assumptions of sediment
transport that remain largely untested. Here, we test a widespread conceptual model and a …

Abstract The Northern Apennines thrust front in the Po basin exhibits active blind thrusts and
associated anticlines, with some anticline crests either emerging or shallowly buried …

Seismic hazard is frequently characterised using instrumental seismic records. However, in
regions where the instrumental record is short relative to earthquake repeat times …

Central America is a seismically active region where six tectonic plates (North America,
Caribbean, Cocos, Nazca, Panama, and South America) interact in a subduction zone with …
