On 8 September 2023, an Mw 6.8 earthquake struck the High Atlas Mountains in western Morocco, where the tectonic regime has been poorly investigated due to its remoteness and weaker seismicity compared to the northern plate boundary.

The 2001 M_w 7.6 Bhuj earthquake, low fault friction, and the crustal support of plate driving forces in India [PDF]
We present a source model for the 2001 M_w 7.6 Bhuj earthquake of northwest India. The slip distribution suggests a high stress drop (~35 MPa) and, together with the depth distribution of aftershocks, that the entire crust is seismogenic. We suggest that

Regularized Inversion of Coseismic Slip Distribution Based on Smoothness-Constrained Model
同震滑动的空间分布估计问题是不适定的,其反演结果存在非唯一性。为了获取稳定的同震滑动分布,本文采用了光滑模型约束的正则化反演方法。算法实施过程中,构建了断层面非均匀离散的滑动量分布光滑约束模型,并设计一种快速稳定的正则化因子求取方法;为了获得合理的滑动分布,采用了非负最小二乘求解方法。理论均匀滑动分布模型的反演试算,验证了反演算法的有效性和稳定性,且非负最小二乘方法能规避不合理的滑动分布。利用光滑约束反演方法反演了2005年Nias地震的同震滑动分布,并与前人的研究结果进行了对比分析。2005年Nias地震反演结果显示:断层面最大滑动量为12.8 m,这与Konca等反演得到的结果一致,且滑动分布所释放的地震矩为9.91 × 1012 Nm,其地震震级为Mw = 8.6,与USGS公布的结果一致 ...

Limited Shallow Slip in the 1938 MS 8.3 Alaska Peninsula Earthquake Rupture
The 1938 MS 8.3 and 2021 MW 8.2 earthquakes both ruptured within the Semidi segment of the Aleutian‐Alaska subduction zone. The large‐slip distribution of the 2021 event is well constrained within the depth range 25–45 km, with seaward tsunami ...

Slow Fault Slip Signatures in Coseismic Ionospheric Disturbances
Rise times of earthquake moment release influence the spectra of seismic waves. For example, slow fault movements in tsunami earthquakes excite larger tsunamis than expected from intensities of short-period seismic waves. Here we compare amplitudes of two different atmospheric waves, long-period internal gravity waves and short-period acoustic waves ...
