2015年4月25日，尼泊尔戈尔卡附近发生里氏7.8级地震。地震及其余震造成超过8，790人死亡，22，300人受伤; 50万所房屋被毁;数百个历史和文化古迹被毁或严重受损（NPC 2015）。引发的山体滑坡阻断了道路网络，其他生命线受到严重影响。首都加德满都和周围的山谷盆地都受到了破坏，但受灾最严重的地区是尼泊尔中部的农村地区，那里的一些城镇损失严重。恢复工作进展缓慢，但在重建和修复丢失和损坏的建筑物和基础设施方面正在取得进展。这本地震谱特刊提供了一个关于廓尔喀地震的研究论文汇编。它们分为五个主题：（1）地震学，地面运动和岩土工程问题;（2）生命线;（3）建筑物;（4）文化遗产结构;（5）社会科学和公共政策相关主题。本概述概述了地震的主要方面，并重点介绍了特刊文件的调查结果。
On 25 April 2015, a Mw7.8 earthquake struck near Gorka, Nepal. The earth-quake and its aftershocks caused over 8,790 deaths and 22,300 injuries; a half a million homes were destroyed; and hundreds of historical and cultural monuments were destroyed or extensively damaged (NPC 2015). Triggered landslides blocked access to road networks, and other lifelines were significantly impacted. Damage occurred in the capital of Kathmandu and the surrounding valley basin, but the most heavily affected areas were in more rural regions of central Nepal where losses to some towns were severe. Recovery has been slow, but progress is being made in rebuilding and repairing lost and damaged buildings and infrastructure. This Earthquake Spectra special issue provides a compendium of research papers on the Gorkha earthquake. They are organized into five topics: (1) seismology, ground motion, and geotechnical issues; (2) lifelines; (3) buildings; (4) cultural heritage structures; and (5) social science and public policy related topics. This overview summarizes key aspects of the earthquake and highlights findings from the special issue papers.
