Within the framework of the transversal action seismicity of Résif, the organizing committee and the office of Résif announce the 2nd Workshop Résif – Aléa sismique, on January 29, 30 and 31, 2018 in Montpellier (Genopolys center).

This workshop will cover the following two themes :

  • Process and deformation rate at the origin of seismicity in metropolitan France, modelling and comparison with geophysical and geological data
  • National Reference Shakemaps: objectives, data, methods and tools in the national and international context
