Sustainable development in urban areas requires a wide variety of current and theme-based information for efficient management and planning. In addition, researching the spatial distribution of earthquake (EQ) clusters is an important step in reducing seismic risks and EQ losses through better assessment of seismic hazards, therefore it is desirabl...
Efficient handling and planning for the urban regions’ sustainable development require a vast range of up-to-date and thematic information. Besides, obtaining an uncontaminated catalog of seismic activity is desirable to study the earthquake (EQ) clusters spatial allocation, which is a key role in mitigating seismic hazards and alleviating EQ losse...
Earthquake catalogs are often contaminated by man-made crustal activities such as quarry blasts. That is the case in northern Egypt, where many of cement quarries were working so long time ago since the beginning of the twentieth century (1911). Therefore, it is necessary and essential to separate these quarry blast events from the earthquakes for...
The present study aims to demarcate the active fault orientation in the upper crust of Dahshour Seismic Zone (DSZ) in Northern Egypt, and its relation to the regional tectonics. High-resolution earthquake relocations and focal mechanism solutions were determined using the double-difference location method and the forward modelling of the amplitude...
On 12th October 1992, a damaging earthquake of magnitude Mw= 5.8 took place in
Dahshour region, 25 km SW of Cairo city. It attracts the attention of the Egyptian society
due to the severe damage accompanied with it and the long period of its aftershocks
occurrence. Efforts must be practiced to understand the nature of the source of this area
and it...
In the early morning hours on Wednesday November 08, 2006 at 04:32:10(GMT) a small earthquake of ML 4.1 has occurred at southeast Beni-Suef, approximately 160km SEE of Cairo, northern Egypt. The quake has been felt as far as Cairo and its surroundings while no casualties were reported. The instrumental epicentre is located at 28.57°N and 31.55°E. S...
