Download or read book An Earthquake Scenario Catalogue for Canada written by T.E. Hobbs and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As part of the national Canadian Seismic Risk Model, a collection of earthquake hazard and risk scenarios has been created and will be documented in a series of Open Files and other publications. This first document will help a user in interpreting and understanding raw scenario outputs, without any technical, pre-requisite skills. A future document will help orient a technical user seeking to run their own earthquake scenarios, by introducing the input files and a strategy for running the OpenQuake (OQ) Engine for Canadian earthquake scenarios. Other documents will help nontechnical users interact with the model and understand how it can be used for disaster risk reduction in Canada. Following the first release of scenarios, tentatively scheduled for June 2021, all files will be accessed through the OpenDRR GitHub project page as they become available: https://github.com/OpenDRR/earthquake-scenarios. The raw scenario outputs, formatted as comma-separated value (csv) files, contain information about economic losses, building damage, casualties, and other disruptive impacts. All of the impacts are referenced to a unique asset ID, which can be tied to census geographic divisions or latitude/longitude coordinates for plotting. This paper documents all outputs of these models with sufficient detail for a user to begin exploring the results"--Abstract, page 1.
Download or read book A Selection of Earthquake Scenarios for Government Planning Purposes in 2021 written by T. E. Hobbs and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This document describes three earthquake scenarios developed for government planning purposes in 2021. They were requested from Natural Resources Canada, which holds federal subject matter expertise on seismic hazard and risk, by Emergency Management British Columbia and the Government Operations Centre in Ottawa, and are presented in an Open File report to allow for appropriate review and documentation. While the events were developed for particular government agencies, the scenarios are relevant for other applications and hence their documentation may be useful to other emergency management, planning, and preparedness organizations, and to the broader public. This file presents a description of the impacts due to the following scenario earthquakes: a moment magnitude (Mw) 7.0 event in the Strait of Georgia near Vancouver, BC; a Mw 7.3 event on the Leech River Fault near Victoria, BC; and a Mw 7.5 event in Gatineau, QC, near the nation's capital. The seismic hazard and risk assessment is performed in the same manner as the National Seismic Risk Assessment, which leverages the current best understanding of: seismic sources and ground motions, site conditions, exposed assets, and fragility curves. In this document, sources will be cited as appropriate to support the scientific description of the events, but the text will generally be aimed at a non-technical audience"--Introduction, page 1.

Download or read book An Earthquake Catalogue for Seismic Events in the Norman Wells Region of the Central Mackenzie Valley Northwest Territories Using Waveform Data from Local Seismic Stations written by A. M. Farahbod and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The development of unconventional hydrocarbon resources in the Norman Wells region of the Central Mackenzie Valley, Northwest Territories, has been explored by the energy industry. In early 2014, Conoco-Philips Canada conducted two multi-stage test operations of hydraulic fracturing (HF) in the region. In this study, we combine seismic data from the Canadian National Seismograph Network, four new stations established by the Northwest Territories Geoscience Office in collaboration with Natural Resources Canada in the Norman Wells region, and a local dense array installed by Conoco-Philips Canada to study the seismicity distribution during the pre-HF, HF and post-HF periods"--Abstract, page 1.

Book excerpt: Containing the papers from the 11th International Conference on Computer Simulation in Risk Analysis and Hazard Mitigation 2018, this book will be of interest to those concerned with all aspects of risk management and hazard mitigation, associated with both natural and anthropogenic hazards. Current events help to emphasise the importance of the analysis and management of risk to planners and researchers around the world. Natural hazards such as floods, earthquakes, landslides, fires and others have always affected human societies. The more recent emergence of the importance of man-made hazards is a consequence of the rapid technological advances made in the last few centuries. The interaction of natural and anthropogenic risks adds to the complexity of the problems. The included papers, presented at the Risk Analysis Conference, cover a variety of topics related to risk analysis and hazard mitigation.
