Strong Shaking From Past Cascadia Subduction Zone Earthquakes Encoded in Coastal Landforms
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 2, 28 January 2025.Abstract Strong earthquakes along subduction zones are often devastating events, but sparse records along some tectonic margins limit our understanding of seismic hazards. Constraining shaking intensities is critical, especially in subduction zones with infrequent but large‐magnitude earthquakes like the Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ), where the lack ...

Clues to the identification of a seismogenic source from environmental effects: the case of the 1905 Calabria (Southern Italy) earthquake [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2009 The 8 September 1905 Calabria (Southern Italy) earthquake belongs to a peculiar family of highly destructive (I<sub>0</sub>=XI) seismic events, occurred at the dawning of the instrumental seismology, for which the location, geometry and size ...

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

The effect of preloading on the liquefaction cyclic strength of mixtures of sand and silt
, 2015 International audienceThe paper studies the effect of preloading on the liquefaction cyclic strength of silty sands in the free field condition. This effect first is investigated by cyclic shear tests where horizontal shear stress oscillated about a zero

Hydrothermal liquefaction for energy recovery from high-moisture waste biomass [PDF]
, 2012 Hydrothermal liquefaction is promising technology for converting high-moisture waste biomass into energy dense “biocrude” oil that can be used for direct combustion or refined for transportation grade fuels.
