Editorial: Challenges in seismology to our understanding of volcanic islands an...
Fontiela, J.; Silveira, G.; Dias, N.A.; Pimentel, A.; Ramalho, R; Sigloch, KVolcanic islands are some of the most intriguing geological features on Earth, yet the processes that lead to their formation and evolution remain largely enigmatic. Such islands exhibit complex, heterogeneous and anisotropic subsurface structures, characterized by pronounced and abrupt changes in seismic velocities, attenuation, anisotropy, and interfaces. Volcanic islands are amongst the planet’s largest and ...
High-density Seismic Network for Monitoring Alentejo Region (Portugal) and Miti...
Manso, M.; Bezzeghoud, M.; Borges, J. F.; Caldeira, B.; Fontiela, J.; Ayadi, A.The seismic sensor network Alentejo (SSN-Alentejo) developed by the Earth Sciences Institute (Instituto de Ciências da Terra, University of Évora) brings the largest high-density seismic sensor network ever deployed in Portugal. This novel network aims to improve the characterization of seismic activity in the region, through a high-resolution mapping of seismic clusters and known faults. Over the next two year...

Carrilho, F.; Custodio, S.; Bezzeghoud, M.; Oliveira, C. S.; Marreiros, C.; Vales, D.; Alves, P.; Pena, A.; Madureira, G.; Escuer, M.; Silveira, G.Portugal, located in the southwest region of the Eurasian plate, has been affected by several destructive earthquakes throughout its history, the most well-known being the 1755 Great Lisbon earthquake. The seismicity of the territory, both in the mainland and in the Azores and Madeira islands, has prompted the continuous development of seis- mic monitoring, from the first known macroseismic inquiry, following t...
International Meeting 40 Years of the 1980 Azores Earthquake, online meeting, 6...
Oliveira, C. S.; Fontiela, J.; Ferreira, M. A.; Bezzeghoud, Mourad; Nunes, J. C.; Rodrigues, F C.It is our great pleasure to organize the 40 Years of the 1980 Azores Earthquake (40|80) that will be held online between 6th and 7th October 2020. As we move the 40|80 completely online, we look forward to offering you the same vibrant programming, impactful networking, and opportunities to reflect and connect over the emerging and salient topics in our field. The theme of the 40|80 is to remind the 40 years of...
