The article traces and analyses the various dimensions of sporting rivalry between the three major cities – Portland, Seattle and Vancouver – located in Cascadia, a cross-border “bioregion” defined as much by a shared environment as by its discursive ...

Abstract We present a new 3D Hikurangi subduction interface model by using an implicit modeling approach that integrates seismic‐reflection profiles, relocated hypocenters, focal mechanism orientations, and tomographic interpretations. The model reveals along‐strike transitions in slow slip events (SSEs) that correlate with subduction interface ...

Tsunamigenic megathrust earthquakes along the Cascadia subduction zone present a major hazard concern. We can better prepare to model the earthquake source in a rapid manner by imbuing fault geometry constraints based on prior knowledge and by ...

Catalytic Hydrothermal Liquefaction of Polyethylene With Pt/C to Tune Product Selectivity
Pt/C‐catalyzed hydrothermal liquefaction of polyethylene in supercritical water enables time‐dependent control of product selectivity, producing paraffin‐rich oils at shorter reaction times and aromatic‐enriched products at longer times without external hydrogen. ABSTRACT Hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) represents a promising thermochemical pathway for

IODP Expedition 328: Early Results of Cascadia Subduction Zone ACORK Observatory
Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Expedition 328 was devoted to the installation of an “Advanced CORK” (Circulation Obviation Retrofit Kit) in the Cascadia subduction zone accretionary prism to observe the physical state and properties of the ...

Multi‐Hazard Shaking‐Tsunami Fatality Risk Estimation for Coastal Communities
ABSTRACT This study develops a multi‐hazard fatality risk model for a coastal community (Tofino) on Vancouver Island, Canada, subjected to earthquake‐tsunami threats from the Cascadia subduction megathrust events. The model incorporates variable population distributions and uncertain fatality rate models, in addition to other key model components, such

Research Priorities for Robust Climate Assessments in the United States
Abstract Scientific assessments play a critical role in synthesizing evidence to support evidence‐based decision‐making in many sectors and topics. For climate change, large‐scale assessments like the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and the United States (U.S.) National Climate Assessment (NCA) reports help many different users—from ...

Abstract Chlorite is thought to be one of the major water‐carrying phases in subduction zones, both within the slab and in the mantle wedge. Its presence has previously been linked to common seismological observations at subduction zones, including P and S wave anisotropy as well as high VP/VS ratios (>1.8) in the mantle wedge.
