.... The same law classified the Italian national territory according to geodynamic parameters and ground acceleration, identifying three different seismic hazard zones and a sizeable fourth area classified as not at risk. A year later, in 1975, a subsequent decree ( Government of Italy 1975 ) defined...

The Glen Strathfarrar graphite deposit is concentrated in folded rocks of the Glenfinnan Group and has been removed by blasting at the surface. Heddle, quoted in Horne & Hinxman’s (1914) Memoir for the area, states that ‘in 1818 five tons...

...Helene Joffe; Tiziana Rossetto; Christian Solberg; Cliodhna O'Connor Much research on people's seismic adjustment activity in highly seismic areas has assumed that low levels of adjustment are attributable to insufficient awareness of seismic risk. Empirical evidence for this assumption is weak...

... Abstract D r . P. A. R. N ell writes: Bradbury (1985) presented a brave attempt at a crustal-scale model of the Dalradian. New work in the critical area of Glen Lyon ( Nell 1984 ) suggests that Dr Bradbury’s model of Dalradian structure needs revision. The concept of a Knapdale–Tummel downbend...

Here we report on the ages of individual detrital micas and hornblendes from Ordovician rocks of the Rhinns of Galloway. Our initial objective is to determine possible source areas for the detrital...
