Abstract. A special issue of the journal “Geology and Environment” on the topic: “Consequences and assessment of the threat of earthquakes” comes out two months after the catastrophic earthquakes in Southeast Turkey that occurred on February 6, 2023. The issue presents articles on the consequences of these earthquakes and takes steps towards a theoretical understanding the nature of earthquakes, developing methods for predicting earthquakes in the Baikal region and measures to reduce damage.
Keywords: earthquakes, earthquake forecasting, earthquake-resistant construction.
