Here at the PATA Days meeting in Guatemala, Franz Livio talked about a huge paleoseismology project targeting the Rieti Basin in Italy. He said we’d have the paper in order to appreciate all the details, and here we are – the paper has just been published. Of course there are many more really interesting studies that came out recently. Enjoy reading!
