Magnitude estimation of the 1900 earthquake in Venezuela based on its coseismic effects

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2020
AbstractThe 29 October, 1900, earthquake occurred in Venezuela triggered six landslides and six liquefactions located in the center-north region of Venezuela and La Tortuga island. Due to the location of the coseismic effects, the barycenter and the focal depth related to this earthquake, it was possible to calculate the magnitude by using several ...

The spatial response pattern of coseismic landslides induced by the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake to the surface deformation and Coulomb stress change revealed from InSAR observations

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation, 2020
The 2008 Mw 7.9 Wenchuan earthquake triggered plenty of coseismic giant landslides, which resulted in almost one third of total fatalities and economic losses during the event.

Effects of superficial layers on coseismic displacements for a dip-slip fault and geophysical implications [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Journal International, 1999
We study the effect of a superficial layer overlying a half-space on the surface displacements created by a dip-slip dislocation on a planar rectangular fault using a 2-D finite element model. The effect of the density and Poisson’s ratio is negligible.

Multimodal method for landslide risk analysis

open access: yesMethodsX, 2019
Quantitative landslide risk analysis is a key step in creating appropriate land use policies. However, regional scale landslide hazard and risk studies are traditionally based on a single, infinite-slope style of failure, belying the differing ...

Dueling dynamics of low-angle normal fault rupture with splay faulting and off-fault damage

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Despite a lack of modern large earthquakes on shallowly dipping normal faults, Holocene Mw > 7 low-angle normal fault (LANF ...

Analysis of coseismic effect on temperature in the Three Gorges well network

open access: yesGeodesy and Geodynamics, 2015
AbstractThrough the Three Gorges well network, we examine different coseismic changes in water temperature caused by local earthquakes since 2008, and offer a mechanistic explanation. The relations between the coseismic changes in water temperature and the parameters of distant and local earthquakes are deduced.

Sedimentary response of a structural estuary to Holocene coseismic subsidence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
: Stratigraphic evidence for coseismic subsidence has been documented in active-margin estuaries throughout the world. Most of these studies have been conducted in subduction zone or strike-slip settings; however, the stratigraphic response to coseismic

InSAR-constrained parallel elastic finite element models for fault coseismic dislocation inversion: a case study of the 2016 MW 5.9 Menyuan earthquake

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
The study of fault coseismic dislocation distribution is crucial for understanding fault stress release, fault sliding behavior, and surface deformation during seismic events.

‘Conjugate’ coseismic surface faulting related with the 29 December 2020, Mw 6.4, Petrinja earthquake (Sisak-Moslavina, Croatia)

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
We provide here a first-hand description of the coseismic surface effects caused by the Mw 6.4 Petrinja earthquake that hit central Croatia on 29 December 2020.

Coseismic Offsets due to Intermediate Depth 16 April 2013 Southeast Iran Earthquake (M-w 7.8)

open access: yes, 2014
The 16 April 2013 southeast Iran earthquake (M-w 7.8) is the second major earthquake in the region, including the Makran subduction zone, since 1945. This intraslab earthquake, within the subducting Arabian plate, occurred as a result of normal faulting ...
