A New Catalogue and Insights into the 2022 Adriatic Offshore Seismic Sequence Using a Machine Learning-Based Procedure.

Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, 00143 Rome, Italy.
This paper presents a new catalogue of the 2022/2023 Adriatic Offshore Seismic Sequence obtained by machine learning-based processing. The procedure performs the automatic picking and association of phases starting from the analysis of the continuous waveforms recorded by 40 seismic stations of the Italian National Seismic Network and 5 stations of the SISMIKO emergency group network. The earthquakes were detected over a 3-month period, between 1 November 2022 and 31 January 2023.

Article Synopsis
- Italy faces significant challenges like natural disasters and migrant crises, prompting the need to assess public health training responsiveness to these issues.
- A survey conducted among public health residents in June 2023 revealed strong interest in emergency training, with a high percentage acknowledging its importance but noting a lack of dedicated courses.
- The findings emphasize the necessity for improved emergency training programs in Italy's public health schools to properly prepare professionals for crisis situations.

Knowing the location, the extent and the characteristics of any earthquake-induced environmental phenomenon is becoming an increasingly pressing need for civil protection agencies and local administrations. In particular, earthquake-triggered landslides are known for being among the most important sources of secondary hazard, as they may cause significant losses and may delay rescue operations across large areas. The combination of the relatively frequent seismic release with a very high landslide susceptibility makes the Italian territory especially prone to the occurrence of earthquake-induced landslides.

Catastrophe bonds (cat bond in short) are an alternative risk-transfer instrument used to transfer peril-specific financial risk from governments, financial institutions, or (re)insurers, to the capital market. Current approaches for cat bond pricing are calibrated on seismic mainshocks, and thus do not account for potential effects induced by earthquake sequences. This simplifying assumption implies that damage arises from mainshocks only, while aftershocks yield no damage.

Current seismic structural design makes use of a ground motion intensity that has a certain probability of being exceeded at a site of interest in a time interval or, equivalently, exceedance return period. The design intensities with the same return period are often collected in the form of maps deriving from probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) for each of the sites of interest. Probability theory underlying PSHA dictates that, in any time interval, design intensities are expected to be exceeded in a fraction of sites that depends on the return period the map refers to.
