Relaxation dynamics of aftershocks after large volatility shocks in the SSEC index

open access: yes, 2007
The relaxation dynamics of aftershocks after large volatility shocks are investigated based on two high-frequency data sets of the Shanghai Stock Exchange Composite (SSEC) index. Compared with previous relevant work, we have defined main financial shocks

Exceptionally Elongated Strike‐Slip Rupture Caused by the 2025 MW 7.8 Myanmar Earthquake

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract The interplay between fault geometry and rupture behavior remains poorly understood. The 2025 Myanmar earthquake ruptured the Sagaing fault, a major continental strike‐slip fault with simple geometry. We integrated geodetic and teleseismic observations to investigate its rupture process through finite‐fault kinematic inversions and back ...

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.

Frictional Heterogeneity Governs Slip Partitioning and Seismic Hazard in the 2023 Turkey Earthquake Doublet

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract Quantifying fault frictional properties is fundamental to understanding slip behavior and seismic hazard. We analyze 2 years of Sentinel‐1 SAR data following the 2023 Turkey earthquake doublet using Independent Component Analysis‐enhanced Small Baseline Subset‐InSAR, to resolve postseismic deformation and invert for afterslip on the East ...

Study on the attenuation relationship of the acceleration envelope parameters for the Wenchuan earthquake aftershocks

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
The seismic attenuation relationship between ground motion parameters (such as peak acceleration and response spectra value) and seismic parameters (such as magnitude and epicentral distance) is an important foundation for seismic hazard analysis and the

Power Law Distributions of Seismic Rates

open access: yes, 2004
We report an empirical determination of the probability density functions $P_{\text{data}}(r)$ of the number $r$ of earthquakes in finite space-time windows for the California catalog. We find a stable power law tail $P_{\text{data}}(r) \sim 1/r^{1+\mu}$

Dual Role of a Subducted Seamount in Megathrust Rupture Initiation and Rupture Barrier

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Using high‐resolution 3D tomography and a relocated 2010–2022 earthquake catalog, we identify a seamount at 20–25 km depth beneath the Mompiche–Cojimíes region in the coastal forearc of Ecuador. This provides a rare, well‐resolved example of seamount preservation at these depths. The seamount coincides with a low interseismic‐coupling corridor

Study on Coulomb Stress Triggering of the April 2015 M7.8 Nepal Earthquake Sequence

open access: yesInternational Journal of Geophysics, 2016
In April 2015, a M7.8 earthquake occurred less than one month before a M7.3 earthquake near Kodari, Nepal. The Nepal earthquake sequences also include four larger (M > 6) aftershocks. To reveal the interrelation between the main shock and the aftershocks,

The effect of lateral variations of friction on crustal faulting

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 1994
We propose that lateral variations in fault friction control the heterogeneity of slip observed in large earthquakes, We model these variations using a rate and state-dependent friction law, where we differentiate velocity-weakening into strong and weak ...

Record‐Wise Disaggregated Seismic Fragilities for Interconnected Systems

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 743-758, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Seismic risk assessment studies typically rely on fragility functions/curves to characterize the susceptibility of an asset or a class of assets to damage. These curves are essentially a summarization of responses evaluated on the basis of ground motions with record characteristics and intensities that may or may not be tied to a specific site
