Re ´sume Únpetit essaim de sismicite ´a eu lieu en mai 2004 a `proximite ´imme ´diate du massif de l'Agly, dans les Pyre ´ne ´es, ou `s'est produit le se ´isme de Saint-Paul-de-Fenouillet (18 fe ´vrier 1996, M L = 5.2). La localisation fine des e ´ve ´nements de cet essaim, gra ˆce aux enregistrements de stations temporaires rapidement mises en place, et la comparaison avec la re ´partition des re ´pliques de fe ´vrier 1996 ont permis de mettre en e ´vidence une structure tectonique active, inconnue jusqu'alors. Le se ´isme de fe ´vrier 1996 peut e ˆtre re ´interpre ´te ´a `la lumie `re de ces nouvelles informations.
In the frame of the DO-SMS project (created within the European SUDOE partnership), a new landslide hazard mapping method is experimented on the French "Pays Basque" coast. Based on a physical landslide modelling and integrated into a software named ALICE®, its aim is to propose a quantitative classification of landslide hazard by calculating a probability of occurrence of landslides on each point of the studied area. The method highlights a useful tool to gain time and efficiency in hazard mapping.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
