Insights on the role of local site effects on damage distribution in the Izmir metropolitan area induced by the October 30, 2020 Samos earthquake Open
On the 30th of October 2020, a 6.6 magnitude earthquake occurred 14 km north of Samos Island, causing 119 casualties (117 in Izmir,
\nTu ̈ rkiye, and 2 in Samos, Greece) and significant damage in the 3rd biggest city of Tu ̈ rkiye, Izmir. Al…

Instantaneous limit equilibrium back analyses of major rockslides triggered during the 2016–2017 central Italy seismic sequence Open
Among the almost 1400 landslides triggered by the shocks of the 2016–2017 central Italy seismic sequence, only a limited number, all classifiable as rockslides, involved volumes larger than 1000 m3. Four of these failures, including the th…
