Deep Earthquakes Can Generate Larger Co‐Seismic Displacements Than Shallow Events

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 4, 28 February 2026.
Abstract We report the counter‐intuitive observation that a deep earthquake can generate larger co‐seismic displacements than a shallow event across a broad region (e.g., >4° from epicenter). This finding is based on a detailed comparative GNSS analysis of the co‐seismic displacement observations from two MW 8.3 events—the 2013 598.1 km‐deep Okhotsk ...

The mechanisms of spatial and temporal earthquake clustering

open access: yes, 2009
The number of earthquakes as a function of magnitude decays as a power law. This trend is usually justified using spring-block models, where slips with the appropriate global statistics have been numerically observed.

Spatiotemporal Characteristics of Tectonic Tremors in California

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 4, 28 February 2026.
Abstract California, as a transform plate boundary, provides a distinctive tectonic setting and an ideal natural laboratory for investigating tectonic tremors and the slow deformation associated with plate motion. By analyzing continuous seismic records across multiple stations with an envelope correlation method, we identified ∼83,000 tremor events ...

Recent Seismic Activity in the Azores Region [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This seismic activity in the Azores Region is characterized by sequences of low-magnitude events, usually with epicenter off-shore. These seismic sequences are sometimes triggered by larger events, felt by the population, that could produce significant ...

Networks as Renormalized Models for Emergent Behavior in Physical Systems

open access: yes, 2005
Networks are paradigms for describing complex biological, social and technological systems. Here I argue that networks provide a coherent framework to construct coarse-grained models for many different physical systems.

Seismological aspects of the Cairo earthquake, 12th October 1992

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 2000
On 12 October 1992 a significant earthquake (MB = 5.8) occurred southwest of Cairo in the vicinity of the Dahshour region. For the mainshock, an average moment release M 0 = 9.70E17 n-m; a fault length = 13.8 km; an average displacement = 0.22 m; a ...

Source rupture process, directivity and and Coulomb stress change of the 12 January 2010 (Port-au-Prince Haiti, Mw7.0) earthquake [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The Haiti earthquake occurred on Tuesday, January 12, 2010 at 21:53:10 UTC. Its epi- center was at 18.46 degrees North, 72.53 degrees West, about 25 km WSW of Haiti’s capital, Port-au-Prince, along the tectonic boundary between Caribbean and North ...

SPECIFIC FEATURES OF FIELDS OF STRESSES ASSOCIATED WITH AFTERSHOCK PROCESSES IN THE ALTAI-SAYAN MOUNTAINOUS REGION

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2015
The cataclastic method developed by Yu.L. Rebetsky is applied to reconstruct the recent field of stresses related to aftershock sequences of earthquakes that occurred in the Altai-Sayan mountainous region, specifically the Altai earthquake of 27 ...

对汶川地震余震序列中最大余震事件的讨论

open access: yesDizhen xuebao, 2018
本文针对2008年5月12日四川汶川MW7.9地震后的余震目录,采用2004年Shcherbakov和Turcotte提出的最大余震震级推断法,给出了最大余震震级的估计值。结果表明,采用现有的余震数据,在大震级区间可能存在一定数量的余震缺失,这造成了余震数据与Gutenberg-Richter定律曲线在大震级区间的差异,导致推断的最大余震震级与使用目录中的最大余震震级存在明显差异。利用震级与断层长度或地表破裂长度之间的经验关系可以看出,由灌县—江油断裂的破裂尺度得到的震级与推断最大余震震级基本一致 ...
