| In 2001, a seism of magnitude 6.9 shook the town of Arequipa, leaving over one hundred people dead. |
|
| The need is huge as the temporary shelters built after the seism will probably not resist to the cyclonic season. |
|
| Surrounded by luxurious vegetation, its tall trees provide a refreshing shadow to the small houses cracked by the seism. |
|
| After the first crowd and panic movements, Rolph decided to leave on foot for his hometown, Leogane, the epicenter of the seism. |
|
| During the emercency period, NGOs have distributed more than 600,000 tarpaulins and 70,000 tents, visible in all areas affected by the seism. |
|
| It is ACTED which made the first emergency intervention five days after the seism. |
|
| Their conclusions were that the building was rather resistant to the earthquakes and that the pathology was not due to the seism. |
|
| Surveillance of seismic regions needs the high-precision positioning techniques such as GPS and the future GALILEO, to observe network distortion and warn about energy accumulation which can likely convert in a seism. |
|
| The choice of intervention zones will keep in mind as well the obvious utilization of the labor force of the migrant population following the seism. |
|
| Populations which stayed in the urban areas affected by the seism gathered in 918 spontaneous settlements where people sleep in handmade shelters. |
|
| This group included gravity, magnetic, radiometry, and thermometry and seism city. |
|
| Short before the seism of Ahmadabad in India, January 2001, we had diagnosed the buildings of the city centre and we were ready to return our report. |
|
| The first method, APE A Priori information for Earthquake damage mapping, concerns the generation of maps to address the detection and estimate of damage caused by a seism. |
|
| In remarks on the work of the Seism Monitoring authority in the Kingdom, the members called for making geological survey to Makkah-based holy Haram area. |
