New constraints on extensional tectonics and seismic hazard in northern Attica, Greece: the case of the Milesi Fault [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Northern Attica in Greece is characterized by a set of north dipping, subparallel normal faults. These faults were considered to have low tectonic activity, based on historical earthquake reports, instrumental seismicity, and slip rate estimates.

Late Holocene Tsunami Deposits at Salt Creek, Washington, USA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We interpret two thin sand layers in the estuarine marsh at Salt Creek, on the southern shore of the Strait of Juan de Fuca, as the products of tsunamis propagated by earthquakes at the Cascadia subduction zone.

Shallow Rupture of the 2011 Tarlay Earthquake (M_w 6.8), Eastern Myanmar [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We use L‐band Advanced Land Observation Satellite PALSAR data to infer the distribution of subsurface fault slip during the Tarlay earthquake (M_w 6.8) in eastern Myanmar.

Clues to the identification of a seismogenic source from environmental effects: the case of the 1905 Calabria (Southern Italy) earthquake [PDF]

open access: yesNatural 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 ...

Gazing at the Solar System: Capturing the Evolution of Dunes, Faults, Volcanoes, and Ice from Space [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Gazing imaging holds promise for improved understanding of surface characteristics and processes of Earth and solar system bodies. Evolution of earthquake fault zones, migration of sand dunes, and retreat of ice masses can be understood by observing

Transpressional Rupture Cascade of the 2016 M_w 7.8 Kaikoura Earthquake, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Large earthquakes often do not occur on a simple planar fault but involve rupture of multiple geometrically complex faults. The 2016 M_w 7.8 Kaikoura earthquake, New Zealand, involved the rupture of at least 21 faults, propagating from southwest to ...

Multi-methodological approach for assessing surface faulting and paleoliquefaction history in central Italy: applicative implications for seismic microzonation studies in the Quaternary L’Aquila basin

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
Surface faulting and liquefaction are two earthquake-related effects to be considered in geological hazard assessment studies, particularly in application cases involving the construction or reconstruction of strategic buildings.

Earthquake-induced deformation structures in lake deposits: A Late Pleistocene to Holocene paleoseismic record for Central Switzerland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Zusammenfassung.: In den bis zu 15,000 Jahre alten Sedimenten von vier Seen in der Zentralschweiz wurden Spuren von drei starken historischen und mindestens sieben prähistorischen Erdbeben gefunden.

Quality control for next-generation liquefaction case histories [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The Next-Generation Liquefaction (NGL) database is an open-source, global database of liquefaction and non-ground failure case-histories. The database is part of a multi-year research effort with the main goal of developing improved procedures to ...
