The 11 June 1909, Provence (Lambesc) earthquake is

the strongest instrumental seismic event recorded in

French history. It destroyed several villages between

Aix-en-Provence and Salon-de-Provence and caused

46 deaths, a rather high death toll for such a sparsely

populated region at this time.

The 100 anniversary of this dramatic, though rare,

event provides the opportunity to organize a

conference on the “seismic risk assessment in regions

of moderate seismicity”.

Objectives and conference topics:

The objective of the “Provence’ 2009 conference” is to share works, views and experiences about seismic risk

assessment in moderate seismicity areas, with a special focus on the Western Mediterranean zone. The conference

intends to emphasize six main topics:

– Geodynamic of western Mediterranean area, geological and tectonic context,

– From earthquake science to seismic hazard assessment,

– Building and territory vulnerability within the Mediterranean context,

– Evolutions of earthquake engineering over the last century,

– Observation and instrumentation: new challenges,

– Coping with uncertainties: state of the art and experience feed-back,

– Societal aspects and economical issues.

The aim of the conference is to gather, around a common reflection, a wide community of actors coming from seismic

hazard sciences, juridical and socio-economical studies, earthquake engineering,…
