The 1940 Vrancea Earthquake. Issues, Insights and Lessons Learnt Proceedings of the Symposium Commemorating 75 Years from November 10, 1940 Vrancea Earthquake
These proceedings include most of the available information on this major seismic event and its consequences. With an estimated moment magnitude of 7.7 and a heavy toll in terms of human and economic losses, it ranks as the largest intermediate-depth earthquake in Europe in the twentieth century. Ne...
