Contents:
Introduction -- Earthquake Early Warning Systems -- A Combined Geophysical/Engineering Approach of the Seismic Safety of Long-Span Bridges -- Earthquake Modelling in the Dead Sea Basin -- Nonlinear Seismology - The Seismology of the XXI Century -- Structure of the Upper Mantle beneath Northern Eurasia Derived from Russian Deep-Seismic PNE Profiles -- True-Amplitude Imaging -- Imaging of Orebodies with Vertical Seismic Profiling Data -- Tectonic Evolution of the Dead Sea Rift and its Effect on Civilization -- Escapades of the Aegean-Anatolian Block -- Real-Time Monitoring of the Slab Detachment in the SE-Carpathians -- Geodynamics and Seismicity of the Southeastern Carpathinas Inferred from Analytical to Three-Dimensional Modelling.
In: Springer eBooksSummary: The core of this book is based on the unique cooperation between earth scientists and civil engineers working in the field of strong earthquakes in the Vrancea region of Rumania and the capital city Bucharest. It goes on to review the results of deep seismic tomography from mantel pumes, deep lithospehric properties from Russian nuclear explosion data and high -resolution imaging in seismics. Finally, the third part of this book focusses on the effect of tectonics on plate motions and civilisation. .
