Earthquakes are a natural catastrophic phenomenon common in the Greek area, which scientists are called to face. The problem of dealing with earthquakes has many components and concerns human life, the built environment, and cultural heritage.
Geology plays a dominant role in understanding earthquakes, so the proper training of geoscientists in Seismic Geology is necessary, a subject to which the book you are holding contributes. Geology as a science can determine the position of the earthquake in the Earth's crust in relation to lithospheric plates, primary and secondary phenomena related to an earthquake, and the impact of active faults on the Earth's surface. The goal of geology is to provide answers to questions such as how many earthquakes have occurred in a seismic source (fault), what is the slip rate of an active fault, how often strong earthquakes occur, how much an active fault affects or can affect human activity.
Geological research can help approach three basic questions that are a dominant goal of any earthquake analysis effort. These questions concern the time, the location of an earthquake, and the distribution of its effects.
