What is the difference between a seismogenic fault and a capable fault? 🤔 💥 Seismogenic fault: The source of an earthquake at depth. 🌍 Capable fault: A fault with potential for displacement at or near the surface. Want to connect the two? Check out PDF-Italy (seismofaults.eu/pdf-italy). 1/4

How to handle fault modelling when the dip is unknown? Can we rely on the Anderson's theory? G-DIP is a compilation of 597 fault plane dip values. Download the full dataset: 👇 www.seismofaults.eu/gdip Learn more at: doi.org/10.1093/gji/...

How many types of seismogenic sources do you know? Are they “real” faults? In the Database of Individual Seismogenic Sources (diss.ingv.it) are listed four types. Learn more at: 👇 diss.ingv.it/about/what-i... and diss.ingv.it/basic-defini... Explore other contents at: 👉 www.seismofaults.eu

📢 New mapper tool! Navigate through the datasets and choose the layers you want to map. The new tool can be accessed from both the menu Datasets and each single dataset tile on the homepage. Check out at 👉https://www.seismofaults.eu/

🚨 New database out! Database of Surface Faulting events in ITaly - SFIT 👇 www.seismofaults.eu/sfit SFIT is a compilation of published data on earthquake surface fault ruptures in Italy over the last century. doi.org/10.13127/sfi...

🚨New database out! 👉 seismofaults.eu/pdf-italy PDF-Italy integrates DISS (diss.ingv.it) and ITHACA (sgi.isprambiente.it/ithacaweb/de...) into a system of principal and distributed faulting, a framework commonly adopted in coseismic surface faulting hazard studies.

In the coming days, our services will be migrated to the new infrastructure, enabling us to provide an increasingly rich and efficient service. There may be brief interruptions to services or hosted websites.

Public Call for a Tsunami Researcher permanent position at Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia - INGV - Rome, Italy – Code: 8RIC-VS-01-2026 Link on InPA web site (in Italian) www.inpa.gov.it/bandi-e-avvi... applications must be submitted within 30 days from 21/1/2026

On December 29, starting at approximately 8:30 a.m., Seismofaults' servers will undergo maintenance. As a result, some of our services for #EFSM20 and #DISS, as well as our websites, may be unavailable. The work will be completed in a few hours.

We are excited to inform you that you can also consult the Greek Database of Seismogenic Sources directly from our homepage seismofaults.eu

New dataset out! Global Dip (G-DIP): a collection of earthquake fault dip angles. seismofaults.eu/gdip You can find the related paper here: doi.org/10.1093/gji/...

Global distribution of earthquake-fault dip angles This study presents a global survey and analysis of earthquake-fault dip angles, highlighting their significance in earthquake hazard assessments and the limitations of existing models based on Anderson's theory. 👉 doi.org/10.1093/gji/...

Global distribution of earthquake-fault dip angles

Summary. The dip angle is one of the fault parameters that most affect fault-related hazard analyses (ground shaking, tsunami) because it not only influenc

The European Databases of Seismogenic Faults (EDSF) installation operates under the EPOS TCS-Seismology work program and the EFEHR Consortium. EDSF distribute data about seismogenic faulting proposed by (or solicited to) the scientific community or stemming from project partnerships. seismofaults.eu

The European Fault-Source Model 2020 (EFSM20) is one of the main input datasets used for the 2020 update of the European Seismic Hazard Model (ESHM20). EFSM20 is now part of the portfolio of the EFEHR services. More info here: doi.org/10.13127/efs... doi.org/10.5194/nhes...
