Download or read book Earthquakes in the Mediterranean and Middle East written by Nicholas Ambraseys and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-10-22 with total page 2571 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines historical evidence from the last 2000 years to analyse earthquakes in the eastern Mediterranean and Middle East. Early chapters review techniques of historical seismology, while the main body of the book comprises a catalogue of more than 4000 earthquakes identified from historical sources. Each event is supported by textual evidence extracted from primary sources and translated into English. Covering southern Rumania, Greece, Turkey, Lebanon, Israel, Egypt, Jordan, Syria, and Iraq, the book documents past seismic events, places them in a broad tectonic framework, and provides essential information for those attempting to prepare for, and mitigate the effects of, future earthquakes and tsunamis in these countries. This volume is an indispensable reference for researchers studying the seismic history of the eastern Mediterranean and Middle East, including archaeologists, historians, earth scientists, engineers and earthquake hazard analysts. A parametric catalogue of these seismic events can be downloaded from www.cambridge.org/9780521872928.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The published evidence of reservoir-induced macroearthquakes is critically reviewed. The evidence is partitioned into three types: (a) evidence of a postimpoundment increase in seismicity, (b) correlation evidence that is composed of a plot of a reservoir variable and a seismicity variable and, in most cases, an auxiliary variable, time, and (c) evidence based on the slope of the magnitude-frequency relationship (b value evidence). The basic source for each of these types of evidence is a suitably edited catalog of earthquake occurrences. Recommendations are given regarding catalog preparation and editing. The types of evidence are examined to recognize the effects of common methods of data acquisition and treatment. Postimpoundment change in seismicity can be assessed using certain recommended statistical tests. Recommendations are made regarding construction and interpretation of correlation evidence. The interpretation of correlation evidence is subjective because the assumptions required to construct and interpret the evidence cannot be verified. Evidence based on the b value is shown to be useless as a discriminant to identify induced seismicity from normal seismicity. Eight cases of reservoir induced macroearthquakes are reviewed. These eight cases are: (a) Hoover/Lake Mead, (b) Kariba, (c) Kremasta, (d) Koyna, (e) Kurobe, (f) Manic 3, (g) Hsinfengkiang, and (h) Nurek.

Download or read book Archaeoseismology written by S. Stiros and published by British School at Athens. This book was released on 1996 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The papers in this volume, which have sprung from collaboration between archaeologists and seismologists, investigate the social, historical and physical effects of ancient earthquakes. Sites where archaeological and historical evidence of palaeoseismic events is investigated include Mycenae, Late Helladic III Kynos, 13th century BC Tiryns and Late Minoan Crete. Others adopt a scientific approach to the effects of earthquakes such as the uplift of Greek coastal sites, the disappearance of Dioscuria and Sebastopolis in Colchis and the collapse of the Mycenaean palace system.
