Mapping finite-fault earthquake slip using spatial correlation between seismicity and point-source Coulomb failure stress change

Seismica
Most earthquake energy release arises during fault slip many kilometers below the Earth’s surface. Understanding earthquakes and their hazard requires mapping the geometry and distribution of this slip.

The 2025 Mw 7.6 Aomori‐Oki Megathrust Sequence and a Slip‐Parallel Seismic Belt to the Trench

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract The 2025 Mw 7.6 Aomori‐Oki earthquake nucleated near the 1968 Mw 8.3 Tokachi‐Oki rupture area. Our waveform inversion reveals large slip (>1 m) extending ∼40 km northward from the hypocenter, overlapping the inferred 1968 northern asperity. Minor secondary slip (0.2–0.6 m) was resolved ∼60 km updip, and high‐precision relocations show that ...

Role of a Hidden Fault in the Early Process of the 2024 Mw7.5 Noto Peninsula Earthquake

Geophysical Research Letters
The 2024 Mw 7.5 Noto Peninsula, Japan, earthquake was initiated within the source region of intense swarm activity. To reveal the mainshock early process, we relocated the earthquake hypocenters and found that many key phenomena, including the mainshock ...

Diminishing high‐frequency directivity due to a source effect: Empirical evidence from small earthquakes in the Abruzzo region, Italy

Geophysical Research Letters, 2016
The aim of this study is to investigate the directivity effects of ~250 aftershocks (magnitudes 3–5.5) of the Mw 6.1 2009 L'Aquila earthquake (central Italy).

Earthquake Rate Variability in the Auckland Volcanic Field Within a Long‐Duration Self‐Consistent Earthquake Catalogue

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
Eruptions in the Auckland Volcanic Field in Aotearoa New Zealand have not occurred since seismic monitoring began in Aotearoa New Zealand, but it is generally presumed that future eruptions from the Auckland Volcanic Field will be preceded by elevated rates of seismicity.

Real-Time Foreshock–Aftershock–Swarm Discrimination During the 2025 Seismic Crisis near Santorini Volcano, Greece: Earthquake Statistics and Complex Networks

Geosciences
The advanced determination of the type (foreshock–aftershock–swarm) of an ongoing seismic cluster is quite challenging; only retrospective solutions have thus far been proposed.

A scoping review on the mental health of disaster responders for natural disasters in Japan

Psychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences Reports, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
This scoping review synthesized 55 studies (1997–2025) on the mental health of disaster responders in Japan following natural disasters. Mental health outcomes varied by occupation, with higher prevalence among healthcare workers, local government employees, and nuclear power plant workers, and lower prevalence among firefighters and JGSDF personnel ...

Dynamic behaviour of a concrete building under a mainshock–aftershock seismic sequence with a concrete damage plasticity material model

Geomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2016
The aim of this paper was to investigate the dynamic response of a concrete structure subjected to a mainshock–aftershock seismic sequence. In the dynamic analysis, three components of the registered mainshock and aftershock were taken into account.

Teaching Through Trauma: English Teachers Navigating Affective Regimes in Post‐Earthquake Türkiye

TESOL Quarterly, Volume 60, Issue S1, Page S79-S103, June 2026.
Abstract This study explores how English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers in post‐earthquake Türkiye narrated their experiences of loss, survival, and teaching within state‐imposed affective regimes. Drawing on an affective–discursive analysis of Ministry of National Education (MoNE) documents and media texts, the study first investigates how ...

Fluid‐Driven Cohesive Strengthening: Critical Role of Reaction Kinetics as the Determinant for Frictional Stability

AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Following an earthquake, faults lock and regain strength via a combination of healing mechanisms that include pressure solution, contact growth, and cementation. Fault healing dictates strength recovery during the seismic cycle and is therefore a key factor controlling earthquake recurrence intervals, stress drop, and other source properties ...
