Recognizing the Italian zones most prone to next large earthquakes: possible approaches and present chances
Main Article Content
Abstract
The defense from earthquakes in Italy would be considerably favoured by knowing where the next strong shocks will most probably occur. However, to obtain this information a well-defined and widely accepted method is not yet available. This work discusses the approaches so far proposed and tries to estimate the relative chances of providing reliable indications on this problem. Particular attention focusses on the methodology based on the concept of «strain migration».
