Industrial technical accidents caused by natural disasters are defined as Natech accidents,
such as earthquakes and landslides, which can cause tremendous damage to industrial …

We present the first detailed study of earthquake detection capabilities of the Italian National
Seismic Network and of the completeness threshold of its earthquake catalog. The network …

We model the spatial and temporal pattern of seismicity during a sequence of moderate‐
magnitude normal faulting earthquakes, which struck in 1997 the Umbria‐Marche sector of …

The importance of tsunami hazard assessment has increased in recent years as a result of
catastrophic consequences from events such as the 2004 Indian Ocean and 2011 Japan …

The recent elevated rate of large earthquakes has fueled concern that the underlying global
rate of earthquake activity has increased, which would have important implications for …

We use the Dieterich (1994) physics‐based approach to simulate the spatiotemporal
evolution of seismicity caused by stress changes applied to an infinite population of …

We investigate the temporal evolution of background seismicity rate in the Umbria-Marche
sector of the northern Apennines that was struck by the 1997–1998 Colfiorito seismic …

We discuss various statistical distributions of earthquake numbers. Previously, we derived
several discrete distributions to describe earthquake numbers for the branching model of …

The distribution of earthquakes in time and space is seldom stationary, which could hinder a
robust statistical analysis, particularly in low‐seismicity regions with limited data. This work …

This book is the first comprehensive and methodologically rigorous analysis of earthquake
occurrence. Models based on the theory of the stochastic multidimensional point processes …
