Prof. Ambraseys played a very positive and crucial role in the initiation of the Bulletin of Earthquake Engineering ten years ago. He attended the EAEE Executive Committee Meeting held in Lisbon on September 16, 2000 and supported the publication of a new technical journal as the official journal of EAEE. As the Editorial Board of BEE, we believe it would be very appropriate to dedicate this issue to our great mentor, colleague and great researcher, Professor Nicholas Ambraseys. He recently submitted two manuscripts to be published in BEE. The first one “Assessment of the long-term seismicity of Athens from two classical columns” was published in the V.10 N.6 (2012). The second one “Ottoman archives and the assessment of the seismicity of Greece 1456–1833” is in the review stage.enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/restrictedAccessEditorial1113400031406470000210.1007/s10518-013-9422-yGeotechnical engineering & Applied earth sciencesEnvironmental engineering/BiotechnologyCivil engineeringGeophysics/GeodesyHydrogeologyStructural geology2-s2.0-84872966122
