The points with normal, anomalously low, and anomalously high shaking intensities are recognized in the spatial distribution of macroseismic effects from the 1991 Racha earthquake, Greater Caucasus. Distribution of these points in the epicentral area is not random. Comparison between this distribution and the results of local tomography reveals that seismic wave velocities do not increase in the upper layers (from 0 to 3 km) beneath the points with anomalously high intensity, while a sharp increase in velocity is observed in the depth interval from 6 to 9 km. An original method of b-value mapping is suggested. Application of the method demonstrates that anomalously low intensities correlate to high b-values. This likely reflects higher intensity attenuation associated with higher b-value. 相似文献

Macroseismic intensity data plays an important role in the process of seismic hazard analysis as well in developing of reliable earthquake loss models. This paper presents a physical-based model to predict macroseismic intensity attenuation based on 560 intensity data obtained in Iran in the time period 1975–2013. The geometric spreading and energy absorption of seismic waves have been considered in the proposed model. The proposed easy to implement relation describes the intensity simply as a function of moment magnitude, source to site distance and focal depth. The prediction capability of the proposed model is assessed by means of residuals analysis. Prediction results have been compared with those of other intensity prediction models for Italy, Turkey, Iran and central Asia. The results indicate the higher attenuation rate for the study area in distances less than 70 km. 相似文献

Geological and macroseismic effects of the Muya, 1957 earthquake and palaeoearthquakes in Baikal region 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2

Intensity of the Muya, 1957 earthquake is assessed in localities based on macroseismic data and in epicentral area based on
effects in natural environment; it is analyzed how these assessments correspond to each other and to instrumental location
of epicenter, hypocentral depth, and magnitude; it is evaluated, how seismodislocations of the Muya earthquake could serve
as control of palaeoseismostructure parameters in this region. Spatial distribution of macroseismic effect confirms relatively
deep source (20–22 km). Deep source agrees with anomalously short surface rupture length (not more than 25 km); only a part
of the source exposed on the surface. Comparison with length of palaeoseismostructures shows that it is a regional feature.
Epicentral intensity based on surface ruptures is assed X degrees in ESI2007 scale. Ignoring geological effects will underestimate
epicentral intensity up to two degrees. Source mechanism with three sub-sources is in agreement with segmentation of surface
ruptures. Sub-sources are of strike-slip type with small normal component; essential normal slip at surface is probably not
representative for the source and is due to accommodation of strike-slip movement along with a system of sub-parallel en echelon
ruptures under tension. 相似文献

Macroseismic intensity, a useful measure of earthquake effects, is still applied in a wide range of seismological applications
like seismic hazard assessments, attenuation relationships, etc. Isoseismals represent the spatial distribution of macroseismic
intensities, and their shapes depend on source properties, lithosphere structures, tectonic line orientations, site geology,
and topography. The applications ask for both the higher number of isoseismal maps, and their standardization and homogenization.
The point kriging gridding method for an automatic computer drawing of isoseismal maps was delivered. Smoothing rates and
numerical parameters used in the kriging algorithm were tested on macroseismic data of Greek earthquakes representing different
tectonic and geomorphological regimes. The optimum kriging default option was defined. Its application for four Greek earthquakes
is presented and discussed from the viewpoint of a broad use in recent macroseismology.

The 23 April 1909 earthquake, with epicentre near Benavente (Portugal), was the largest crustal earthquake in the Iberian
Peninsula during the twentieth century (M
w = 6.0). Due to its importance, several studies were developed soon after its occurrence, in Portugal and in Spain. A perusal
of the different studies on the macroseismic field of this earthquake showed some discrepancies, in particular on the abnormal
patterns of the isoseismal curves in Spain. Besides, a complete list of intensity data points for the event is unavailable
at present. Seismic moment, focal mechanism and other earthquake parameters obtained from the instrumental records have been
recently reviewed and recalculated. Revision of the macroseismic field of this earthquake poses a unique opportunity to study
macroseismic propagation and local effects in central Iberian Peninsula. For this reasons, a search to collect new macroseismic
data for this earthquake has been carried out, and a re-evaluation of the whole set has been performed and it is presented
here. Special attention is paid to the observed low attenuation of the macroseismic effects, heterogeneous propagation and
the distortion introduced by local amplifications. Results of this study indicate, in general, an overestimation of the intensity
degrees previously assigned to this earthquake in Spain; also it illustrates how difficult it is to assign an intensity degree
to a large town, where local effects play an important role, and confirms the low attenuation of seismic propagation inside
the Iberian Peninsula from west and southwest to east and northeast. 相似文献

--A study of the intensity distribution of the earthquake of December 5th 1456, which affected a large area of central and southern Italy was carried out, verifying, through a recently proposed methodology, the two hypotheses assumed by different authors for one single seismic event and three distinct and close ones. This methodology is based on a vectorial modelling of the macroseismic intensity distribution which aims at determining the epicentre and the principal (minimum and maximum) attenuation directions.¶The study was structured, considering each of the two assumed hypotheses, in a set of tests obtained for the macroseismic field and the intensity map, by analysing different configurations of the observed intensity distribution.¶The results obtained are in agreement with the hypothesis of the time coexistence of three distinct seismic events, for which the calculated epicentres and the principal attenuation directions are compatible with the observed intensity distribution and with the tectonic trend of the Apennine region, respectively. 相似文献

We model the macroseismic damage distribution of four important intermediate-depth earthquakes of the southern Aegean Sea subduction zone, namely the destructive 1926 M?=?7.7 Rhodes and 1935 M?=?6.9 Crete earthquakes, the unique 1956 M?=?6.9 Amorgos aftershock (recently proposed to be triggered by a shallow event), and the more recent 2002 M?=?5.9 Milos earthquake, which all exhibit spatially anomalous macroseismic patterns. Macroseismic data for these events are collected from published macroseismic databases and compared with the spatial distribution of seismic motions obtained from stochastic simulation, converted to macroseismic intensity (Modified Mercalli scale, IMM). For this conversion, we present an updated correlation between macroseismic intensities and peak measures of seismic motions (PGA and PGV) for the intermediate-depth earthquakes of the southern Aegean Sea. Input model parameters for the simulations, such as fault dimensions, stress parameters, and attenuation parameters (e.g. back-arc/along anelastic attenuation) are adopted from previous work performed in the area. Site-effects on the observed seismic motions are approximated using generic transfer functions proposed for the broader Aegean Sea area on the basis of VS30 values from topographic slope proxies. The results are in very good agreement with the observed anomalous damage patterns, for which the largest intensities are often observed at distances >?100 km from the earthquake epicenters. We also consider two additional “prediction” but realistic intermediate-depth earthquake scenarios, and model their macroseismic distributions, to assess their expected damage impact in the broader southern Aegean area. The results suggest that intermediate-depth events, especially north of central Crete, have a prominent effect on a wide area of the outer Hellenic arc, with a very important impact on modern urban centers along northern Crete coasts (e.g. city of Heraklion), in excellent agreement with the available historical information. 相似文献

Ground motion prediction equations (GMPE) in terms of macroseismic intensity are a prerequisite for intensity-based shake
maps and seismic hazard assessment and have the advantage of direct relation to earthquake damage and good data availability
also for historical events. In this study, we derive GMPE for macroseismic intensity for the Campania region in southern Italy.
This region is highly exposed to the seismic hazard related to the high seismicity with moderate- to large-magnitude earthquakes
in the Appenninic belt. The relations are based on physical considerations and are easy to implement for the user. The uncertainties
in earthquake source parameters are accounted for through a Monte Carlo approach and results are compared to those obtained
through a standard regression scheme. One relation takes into account the finite dimensions of the fault plane and describes
the site intensity as a function of Joyner–Boore distance. Additionally, a relation describing the intensity as a function
of epicentral distance is derived for implementation in cases where the dimensions of the fault plane are unknown. The relations
are based on an extensive dataset of macroseismic intensities for large earthquakes in the Campania region and are valid in
the magnitude range M
w = 6.3–7.0 for shallow crustal earthquakes. Results indicate that the uncertainties in earthquake source parameters are negligible
in comparison to the spread in the intensity data. The GMPE provide a good overall fit to historical earthquakes in the region
and can provide the intensities for a future earthquake within 1 intensity unit. 相似文献

The use of shake maps in terms of macroseismic intensity in earthquake early warning systems as well as intensity based seismic hazard assessments provides a valuable supplement to typical studies based on recorded ground motion parameters. A requirement for such applications is ground motion prediction equations (GMPE) in terms of macroseismic intensity, which have the advantages of good data availability and the direct relation of intensity to earthquake damage. In the current study, we derive intensity prediction equations for the Vrancea region in Romania, which is characterized by the frequent occurrence of large intermediate depth earthquakes giving rise to a peculiar anisotropic ground shaking distribution. The GMPE have a physical basis and take the anisotropic intensity distribution into account through an empirical regional correction function. Furthermore, the relations are easy to implement for the user. Relations are derived in terms of epicentral, rupture and Joyner–Boore distance and the obtained relations all provide a new intensity estimate with an uncertainty of ca. 0.6 intensity units. 相似文献

A new approach to the problem of site seismic hazard analysis is proposed, based on intensity data affected by uncertainties. This approach takes into account the ordinal and discrete character of intensities, trying to avoid misleading results due to the assumption that intensity can be treated as a real number (continuous distribution estimators, attenuation relationships, etc.). The proposed formulation is based on the use of a distribution function describing, for each earthquake, the probability that site seismic effects can be described by each possible intensity value. In order to obtain site hazard estimates where local data are lacking, the dependence of this distribution function with the distance from the macroseismic epicenter and with epicentral intensity is examined. A methodology has been developed for the purpose of combining such probabilities and estimating site seismicity rates which takes into account the effect of uncertainties involved in this kind of analysis. An application of this approach is described and discussed. 相似文献

A method is suggested for the analysis of macroseismic intensity data in order to accurately determine an average attenuation structure of the upper part of the crust in an area. The method is based on a model which assumes that the observed intensities depend on source properties (radiation pattern, size, focal depth), geometrical spreading and anelastic attenuation. The method is applied to 13,008 intensity values, observed in corresponding sites of Greece and grouped (in 4228 groups), according to their spatial clustering in order to diminish observational errors and site effects. An average intensity attenuation coefficient,c=–0.0039±0.0016, corresponding to a quality factor, Q=350±140, is determined for the upper 20 km of the crust in this area. This value is relatively low, in good agreement with the relatively high heat flow and high seismic activity of this area. A byproduct of the present study is the determination, for each earthquake, of a macroseismic focal depth and of a macroseismic size, which is strongly correlatted with both the earthquake's magnitude and its seismic moment determined by independent methods. 相似文献

Seismic intensity, measured through the Mercalli–Cancani–Sieberg (MCS) scale, provides an assessment of ground shaking level deduced from building damages, any natural environment changes and from any observed effects or feelings. Generally, moving away from the earthquake epicentre, the effects are lower but intensities may vary in space, as there could be areas that amplify or reduce the shaking depending on the earthquake source geometry, geological features and local factors. Currently, the Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia analyzes, for each seismic event, intensity data collected through the online macroseismic questionnaire available at the web-page www.haisentitoilterremoto.it. Questionnaire responses are aggregated at the municipality level and analyzed to obtain an intensity defined on an ordinal categorical scale. The main aim of this work is to model macroseismic attenuation and obtain an intensity prediction equation which describes the decay of macroseismic intensity as a function of the magnitude and distance from the hypocentre. To do this we employ an ordered probit model, assuming that the intensity response variable is related through the link probit function to some predictors. Differently from what it is commonly done in the macroseismic literature, this approach takes properly into account the qualitative and ordinal nature of the macroseismic intensity as defined on the MCS scale. Using Markov chain Monte Carlo methods, we estimate the posterior probability of the intensity at each site. Moreover, by comparing observed and estimated intensities we are able to detect anomalous areas in terms of residuals. This kind of information can be useful for a better assessment of seismic risk and for promoting effective policies to reduce major damages. 相似文献

This work intends to assess deterministic seismic hazard and risk analysis in terms of the maximum expected intensity map of the Egyptian Nile basin sector. Seismic source zone model of Egypt was delineated based on updated compatible earthquake catalog in 2015, focal mechanisms, and the common tectonic elements. Four effective seismic source zones were identified along the Nile basin. The observed macroseismic intensity data along the basin was used to develop intensity prediction equation defined in terms of moment magnitude. Expected maximum intensity map was proven based on the developed intensity prediction equation, identified effective seismic source zones, and maximum expected magnitude for each zone along the basin. The earthquake hazard and risk analysis was discussed and analyzed in view of the maximum expected moment magnitude and the maximum expected intensity values for each effective source zone. Moderate expected magnitudes are expected to put high risk at Cairo and Aswan regions. The results of this study could be a recommendation for the planners in charge to mitigate the seismic risk at these strategic zones of Egypt. 相似文献

A procedure is proposed for the reconfiguration of the macroseismic planes relative to earthquakes that, being characterized by a reduced number of points of observed intensity due to a lack of information, or having the epicenter very close to the coastline, are characterized by an incomplete distribution of observed intensity levels. The design of a plurality of virtual areas, through which a distribution of intensity consistent with an anisotropic model of attenuation is depicted, allows a reliable determination of macroseismic parameters of the same seismic event. 相似文献

A comparative study of risk assessment methodologies based on macroseismic intensity and response spectrum approaches is presented. To facilitate the comparative study, a spreadsheet-based software tool ‘SeisVARA’ is developed for the estimation of earthquake risk, in which the seismic hazard can be specified either in terms of macroseismic intensity, or peak ground acceleration in combination with the spectral shape and soil amplification model of various earthquake building codes, or in terms of inelastic response spectra using the ‘next generation attenuation relationships’. A comparison of these different approaches is conducted for a typical city in northern India. In addition, the effect of different parameters, e.g., level of PGA, spectral shape, source-site parameters, and soil amplification models, is studied. It is observed that not only the different approaches result in widely varying damage and loss estimates, but also the variation of parameters within a given approach can result in considerable differences. 相似文献

The macroseismic field of the Balkan area 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
A catalogue of 356 macroseimic maps which are available for the Balkan area was compiled, including information on the source parameters of the corresponding earthquakes, the macroseismic parameters of their strength and their macroseismic field. The data analysis of this catalogue yields new empirical relations for attenuation, which can be applied for the calibration of historical events, modelling of isoseismals and seismic hazard assessment. An appropriate analysis allowed the separation and estimation of the average values of the geometrical spreading, n, and anelastic attenuation factor, c, for the examined area which were found equal to –3.227 ± 0.112 and –0.0033 ± 0.0010. Scaling relations for the focal macroseismic intensity, If, and the epicentral intensity I0, versus the earthquake moment magnitude were also determined for each Balkan country. A gradual decrease of the order of 0.5 to 1 intensity unit is demonstrated for recent (after 1970) earthquakes in Greece. Finally the depths of the examined earthquakes as they robustly determined (error <5 km) on the basis of macroseismic data were found to have small values ( 10 km). However large magnitude earthquakes show higher focal depths ( 25 km), in accordance with an increase of the seismic fault dimensions for such events. 相似文献
