Telah dilakukan analisis percepatan tanah maksimum gempa bumi di Kota Manado menggunakan metode Donovan dan McGuire. Kota Manado merupakan bagian dari lengan utara Pulau Sulawesi terletak pada batas pertemuan beberapa lempeng besar sehingga wilayah ini sangat rawan akan goncangan gempa bumi. Upaya mitigasi perlu dilakuakn sejak dini untuk memperkecil dampak resiko gempa bumi tersebut. Salah satu upaya mitigasi adalah memetakan percepatan tanah maksimum (peak ground acceleration) di permukaan. Penentuan variasi nilai percepatan tanah maksimum menggunakan metode Donovan dan metode McGuire. Data yang digunakan adalah data hypocenter gempa yang dikumpulkan dari dua katalog yakni data USGS dan ANSS selama selang pengamatan Februari 1963 sampai Agustus 2017 meliputi radius 500 km dari Kota Manado. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa percepatan tanah maksimum di Kota Manado menggunkan metode Donovan sekitar 42.12 gal sampai dengan 51.82 gal sedangkan metode Mc Guire diperoleh nilai percepatan tanah sekitar 59.13 gal sampai 72.53 gal.The peak ground acceleration analysis in Manado city has been done using Donovan and McGuire method. Manado City is part of the north arm of Sulawesi Island located at the boundary of several major plate meetings so that this region is very prone to earthquake shocks. Mitigation efforts need to be done early to minimize the impact of the earthquake risk. One mitigation effort is to map the peak ground acceleration on the surface. Determination of peak ground acceleration variation using the Donovan and McGuire method. The data used are earthquake hypocenter data collected from two catalogs namely USGS and ANSS data during the observation interval February 1963 to August 2017 covering a radius of 500 km from Manado City. The result of the analysis shows that the peak ground acceleration in Manado City uses Donovan method about 42.12 gal up to 51.82 gal while Mc Guire method obtained the peak ground acceleration a value of  about 59.13 gal to 72.53 gal.

The Impact

An important key to determining the disaster risk is exposure. It is truly dynamic in space and time due to the expansion and change of the settlements. A seismic hazard is an earthquake disaster that can deliver damage to the physical environment. Hence, it is required to analyse the objects exposed by an active earthquake source in the Bandung Basin. The exposed objects that experience the most impact due to the shock of the earthquake are residential buildings. The West Bandung Regency was opted as our study area due to the high-risk zone for earthquake waves based on seismic hazard calculation. This paper tried to analyse the seismic exposure as the impact of earthquake waves around the Bandung Basin on physical buildings in the West Bandung Regency using a geospatial analytics approach. The result shows that the location area with many damaged buildings correlates with the spatial distribution of surface peak ground acceleration.

El Servicio Sismológico Nacional (SSN) reportó un sismo el día 7 de septiembre de 2017 con Mw 8.2 a una profundidad de 59 km y otro con Mw 7.1 y profundidad de 57 km el 19 de septiembre, curiosamente a 32 años del sismo interplaca de 1985 (M 8.1). Ambos eventos presentaron similitudes en cuanto al tipo de fallamiento (normal), profundidad y la placa tectónica donde se originó la ruptura. Para estudiar lo que concierne al impacto de estos sismos en el estado de Veracruz, se obtuvieron los valores máximos observados de aceleración y velocidad (PGA y PGV) durante ambos sismos en cada una de las estaciones de la Red Sísmica de Banda Ancha de Veracruz (RSBAV) y dos estaciones de banda ancha del Servicio Sismológico Nacional (SSN). Estos fueron relacionados con algunos daños reportados en esta entidad (para Xalapa con apoyo de una encuesta vía web), permitieron observar la atenuación con la distancia y analizar el contenido de frecuencias dominantes a partir de los registros de aceleración.Palabras clave: Placas tectónicas; sismo intraplaca; magnitud; intensidad; aceleración AbstractThe National Seismological Ser­vice (SSN) reported one earthquake on 7 Sep­tember 2017 with Mw 8.2 at a depth of 59 km. Another earthquake, with Mw 7.1 and depth of 57 km, occurred on September 19, curiously 32 years after the interplate earthquake of 1985 (Mw 8.1). Both recent events presented similarities as to the fault type (normal), depth and the tectonic plate where the rupture origina­ted. We study the impact of these earthquakes in the state of Veracruz, by obtaining the peak ground acceleration and velocity (PGA and PGV) at stations of the Veracruz Broadband Seismic Network (RSBAV) and two broadband stations of the National Seismological Servi­ce (SSN) during both earthquakes. We relate them to some damages reported in the Vera­cruz state (for Xalapa city with the support of a web survey), observe the attenuation with distance, and analyze the content of dominant frequencies from the records of acceleratio.Keywords: Tectonic Plates; intraplate earth­quake; magnitude; intensity; acceleration

Sorong merupakan salah satu kota yang terletak di Provinsi Papua Barat. Daerah ini memiliki tingkat kerentanan yang tinggi terhadap ancaman bahaya gempa bumi karena lokasinya terletak di antara pertemuan lempengan tektonik dan beberapa sesar aktif. Tingkat kerawanan terhadap gempa pada daerah ini cukup tinggi. Pada September 2016, BMKG mencatat bahwa terjadi gempa bumi dengan skala magnitudo sebesar 6,8 SR (Skala Ritcher) dengan kedalaman 10 meter dari permukaan laut dan berjarak 31 km arah timur laut kota Sorong. Gempa ini bersifat merusak. Akibat gempa ini, sebanyak 62 orang terluka dan 257 rumah rusak. Untuk itu diperlukan suatu analisis terhadap percepatan tanah puncak (Peak Ground Acceleration) terbaru sebagai langkah mitigasi yang nantinya dapat digunakan untuk perencanaan gedung tahan gempa.Pengumpulan data gempa pada peneltian ini yaitu data gempa yang terjadi sekitar kota Sorong pada rentang waktu 1900-2017. Data gempa yang diambil adalah yang berpotensi merusak struktur yaitu dengan magnitudo (Mw) ≥ 5 dengan radius gempa 500 km dari kota Sorong dan memiliki kedalaman antara 0 - 300 km. Setelah diperoleh data gempa maka dibuat peta sebaran gempa di wilayah kota Sorong. Percepatan tanah puncak dihitung berdasarkan fungsi atenuasi matuscha (1980) dan menggunakan pendekatan metode Gumbel.Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa nilai percepatan tanah puncak (PGA) di wilayah kota Sorong pada periode ulang 2500 tahun atau menggunakan probabilitas terlampaui 2% dalam 50 tahun umur rencana bangunan diperoleh sebesar 708.9520 cm/dt2 atau 0.7227 g. Apabila melihat peta gempa SNI 1726-2012 yang menggunakan probabilitas yang sama maka nilai percepatan tanah puncak (PGA) ketika gempa bumi berkisar antara 0.4 g - 0.6 g. Nilai ini mengalami peningkatan yang berarti tingkat resiko terhadap gempa bumi pada wilayah kota Sorong meningkat.

We describe an approach to model liquefaction extent that focuses on identifying broadly available geospatial variables (e.g., derived from digital elevation models) and earthquake-specific parameters (e.g., peak ground acceleration, PGA). A key step is database development: We focus on the 1995 Kobe and 2010–2011 Christchurch earthquakes because the presence/absence of liquefaction has been mapped so that the database is unbiased with respect to the areal extent of liquefaction. We derive two liquefaction models with explanatory variables that include PGA, shear-wave velocity, compound topographic index, and a newly defined normalized distance parameter (distance to coast divided by the sum of distance to coast and distance to the basin inland edge). To check the portability/reliability of these models, we apply them to the 2010 Haiti earthquake. We conclude that these models provide first-order approximations of the extent of liquefaction, appropriate for use in rapid response, loss estimation, and simulations.

ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to characterize the soil macrofauna under different crop systems and compare them to the macrofauna under the native vegetation of a Cerrado/Caatinga ecotone in southwestern Piauí State, Brazil. The areas studied included areas under sweetsop cultivation (Annona squamosa L.), andropogon grass with three years of use, andropogon grass with six years of use, pivot-irrigated corn, Napier grass, and native vegetation. In each area, soil layers of 0-0.1, 0.1-0.2, and 0.2-0.3m, including the surface litter, were evaluated following the Tropical Soil Biology and Fertility Program (TSBF) recommendations. The soil macrofauna from the different land-use systems were identified to the family level, and the mean density of each taxon was calculated for each soil-management type and layer. The structure of the soil macrofauna was negatively altered under the different crops in comparison to the native Cerrado/Caatinga vegetation, with macrofaunal occurrence varying in the different soil layers. A correlation existed between the functional groups and the soil grain-size distribution and moisture. Napier grass cultivation favored greater soil macrofaunal abundance, with a predominance of families belonging to the orders Isoptera and Hymenoptera. Number of soil macrofaunal families under pivot-irrigated corn was more like the number observed with the native vegetation, and corn also had greater family diversity compared to the other crops studied. Therefore, pivot-irrigated corn can reduce the impact of anthropogenic land use on the diversity of soil macrofauna.
