The June 2012 special issue of volume 28 of Earthquake Spectra is devoted to the Mw 8.8 earthquake that struck offshore Maule, Chile, on 27 February 2010. The papers include contributions from EERI (Earthquake Engineering Research Institute) and GEER (Geotechnical Extreme Events Reconnaissance Association) reconnaissance team members, as well as from other individuals. The participation of Chilean researchers and engineers is especially appreciated because of the broad and deep knowledge they bring about Chilean practices and the effects of the earthquake.
