Because of the deep glacial incision, the Lower Tagus Valley hosts a sedimentary record
since∼ 20 000cal BP, making this a unique site along the European Atlantic margin with …

This paper presents a synthesis of the neotectonic studies performed in mainland Portugal
that address the “recent”(post Piacenzian,~ 3 Ma) tectonic evolution of the Portuguese …

The probabilistic seismic hazard of Portugal is analyzed with a logic tree approach. A critical
part of the work was the review of the seismic catalog and the moment magnitude (M) …

It has been widely recognized, both in classical and in modern studies, that the Lisbon
earthquake of 1755 was a multiple event, composed of three shocks separated by a few …

This is the second paper of a series of two concerning strong ground motion in SW Iberia
due to earthquakes originating from the adjacent Atlantic area. The aim of this paper is to …

The seismic hazard of SW Iberia is composed of two contributions: offshore, large to very
large events on the plate boundary between Africa and Eurasia such as the Lisbon …

Publisher Summary Large compressional earthquakes in the upper crust and even larger
plate-boundary earthquakes in subduction zones produce surface deformation recorded by …

The Lower Tagus Valley in Portugal contains a well-developed valley-fill succession
covering the complete Late Pleistocene and Holocene periods. As large-scale stratigraphic …

The distribution of active faults in the Iberian Peninsula is not homogeneous, being mainly
present, but not only, in areas affected by the Alpine Orogeny. They are located in several …

[EN] We present the earthquake potential characterisation of the Alentejo-Plasencia Fault
(APF) in the intraplate area of the Iberian Peninsula. The APF displays clear deformation of …
