The Seismogenic Thickness of Venus

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract Growing evidence that volcanism is currently ongoing on Venus suggests that the sister planet of the Earth may also be seismically active. Given the success of seismic measurements on Mars and the Moon to reveal the interior structure of these bodies, seismic investigations on Venus are a natural next step.

SEISMOGEODYNAMIC FACTOR IN TRIGGERING OF DEBRIS FLOWS ON THE SOUTHERN SLOPES OF THE KODAR RIDGE

Геодинамика и тектонофизика, 2017
Potential triggering of mudflows by geodynamic and seismotectonic factors was assessed for the NE flank of the Baikal rift system, specifically for the junction area of the SW segment of the Chara depression, the Kodar ridge and the Muya-Chara inter ...

The Inter‐Cratonic Neoproterozoic Katangan Basin of Central Africa: Rift Basin Formation, Orogenic Inversion and Potential Fluid Pathways

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract The tectono‐stratigraphic development of continental basins is critical to an understanding of continental tectonics and the formation of metal deposits. The Neoproterozoic, inter‐cratonic Katangan copper basin of Central Africa records a tectono‐stratigraphic evolution and the generation of potential metal transporting fluid pathways ...

Yuan：Research on the Fen-wei rift valley

地震科学进展
The 1303 M8.0 Hongtong earthquake in Yuan Dynasty revealed a series of tectonic and kinematic peculiarities in the Fen-wei rift system. Seismic activity in the region is characterized by quasi-periodicity, southward movement and northward jumping, and ...

Investigation of Migrating Seismicity in the Lithosphere of the Baikal Rift Zone

Doklady Earth Sciences, 2019
The study of migrating seismicity was carried out according to data on 52700 earthquakes of representative energy classes KР ≥ 8, which occurred in the lithosphere of the Baikal Rift Zone (BRZ) from 1964 to 2013. M = 2143 quasilinear chains of earthquakes are distinguished and the basic laws of the space-time and energy distribution are established. In

Deciphering a Quantitative Relationship Between Rifting and Crustal Melt Fraction: Insights From the Incipient Okavango Rift Zone

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 12, 28 June 2025.
Abstract Rifting and magmatism are fundamental geological processes in the evolution of the lithosphere; however, quantitative investigations of their relationship are rare. The Okavango Rift Zone (ORZ) is in the early stages of rifting and magmatic activity and thus is an ideal locale to study this relationship.

Deep and Clustered Microseismicity at the Edge of Southern New Zealand's Transpressive Plate Boundary

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 5, May 2025.
Abstract Deep (>∼ ${ >} \sim $20 km) crustal seismicity is typically associated with cold Precambrian lithosphere. However, previous studies have reported that the depth above which 90% of seismicity occurs (D90) in the Southland region of New Zealand is 30–35 km, even though it is situated in relatively young Mesozoic crust at the eastern edge of the ...

Monitoring the behavior of wild animals under seismic impact: prospects for the use of camera traps within the reserved territories of the Southern Baikal Region

Вестник Камчатской региональной ассоциации "Учебно-научный центр". Серия: Науки о Земле
Documenting the behavioral responses of wild animals using camera traps during a strong or moderate earthquake requires an extremely favorable set of circumstances.

SPATIAL VARIATIONS OF SEISMIC WAVE ATTENUATION IN THE SOUTH BAIKAL BASIN AND ADJACENT AREAS (BAIKAL RIFT)

Геодинамика и тектонофизика, 2019
Our detailed study of the crust and upper mantle of the South Baikal basin focused on seismic coda and seismic S-waves attenuation and estimated seismic quality factor (QS and QC), frequency parameter (n), attenuation coefficient (δ), total attenuation ...

Small hollows in the Baikal Rift Zone

Geography and Natural Resources, 2013
Large grabens, or rift valleys, are of the utmost significance in the neotectonic structure of the Baikal Rift Zone. It is also the home for numerous small hollows which are distinguished by their morphological diversity, structural positions and special features of neogeodynamics.
