The primary environmental effects induced by earthquakes as well as the secondary effects (sensu Environmental Seismic Intensity - ESI 2007 scale) must be considered for a more correct and complete evaluation of seismic hazards, at both regional and local scales. This Special Issue aims to collect all contributions that, using different methodologies, integrate new data produced with multi-disciplinary and innovative methods. These methodologies are essential for the identification and characterization of seismically active areas, and for the development of new hazard models, obtained using different survey techniques. The topic attracted a lot of interest, 19 peer-reviewed articles were collected; moreover, different areas of the world have been analyzed through these methodologies: Italy, USA, Spain, Australia, Ecuador, Guatemala, South Korea, Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia, Russia, China, Japan, and Nepal.Research & information: generalbicsscactive faultamalgamationArctic-Asian seismic beltattenuationAustralian earthquakescatalog incompletenesscoseismic landslidesCPOcrustal modelcyclic triaxial testsDICdigital elevation model (DEM)disasterearth observation (EO)earthquakeearthquake archaeological effects (EAEs)earthquake cataloguesearthquake environmental effectsearthquake environmental effects (EEEs)earthquake forecastingearthquake hazardearthquake hazardsearthquake mechanismearthquake-induced landslideEcuadorEEE databaseemergency shelterESI 2007 scaleESI scaleESI scale 2007ESI-07 scaleexpert estimatefault barrierfully probabilistic techniquegeographic information systems (GIS)geological controlgeoriskGMPEground effectsground-shaking mapGuatemalahistorical and recent earthquakesin situ testsintensity mapsIntraplate earthquakeintraplate regioninventory mapinversionKyrgyzstanlaboratory testslandslideLate Cenozoic deformationliquefactionmachine learningmacroseismic intensitymass movementsmaximum possible magnitudes of earthquakesmicrotremor H/V spectral ratioMMImodel selectionNewmark's methodone class classificationpaleoearthquakepaleoliquefactionpaleoseismogenic structurePedernales earthquakePohang earthquakepotential seismicityprobabilistic seismic hazardregional segmentreverse earthquakeriskSakhalin Islandseismic hazardseismic scenariosseismic zoningseismotectonic deformationshear-wave velocity structuresite amplificationsoil liquefactionSouth KoreaSpainspatial resolutionStructure-from-Motionsuitability analysissurface ruptureSuusamyr earthquakeTien ShanUlaanbaatarweighted coefficientResearch & information: generalPorfido Sabinaedt299986Alessio GiulianaedtGaudiosi GermanaedtNappi RosaedtPorfido SabinaothAlessio GiulianaothGaudiosi GermanaothNappi RosaothBOOK9910557694203321New Perspectives in the Definition3026815UNINA
