The use of Terrestrial Laser Scanning in characterizing active tectonic processes from postseismic slip to the long term growth of normal faults [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This thesis investigates two main hypotheses regarding uncertainty in the measurement of paleoseismic offsets used to estimate fault activity and paleoearthquake magnitudes on normal faults: (1) That variations in fault geometry have a significant effect

Sedimentary record of coseismic subsidence in Hersek coastal lagoon (Izmit Bay, Turkey) and the late Holocene activity of the North Anatolian Fault

open access: yes, 2011
This research was funded by the European Union in the framework of the REL.I.E.F. (Reliable Information on Earthquake Faulting) project (EVG1‐CT‐2002‐00069).

Multi‐Hazard Shaking‐Tsunami Fatality Risk Estimation for Coastal Communities

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
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

Measuring and Modeling Viscoelastic Relaxation of the Lithosphere with Application to the Northern Volcanic Zone, Iceland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Viscoelastic relaxation of the stress perturbation caused by an earthquake or diking event can produce measurable ground deformation over 100 km away from the source. We consider the role of viscoelastic relaxation in two different contexts.

Interseismic Creep Along the Enriquillo–Plantain Garden Fault, Haiti, Estimated From InSAR

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract The Enriquillo–Plantain Garden fault zone (EPGFZ) is a major left‐lateral strike‐slip fault in southern Haiti hosting several recent destructive earthquakes, including the 2021 MW 7.1 Nippes event with primary thrust‐slip. To investigate how strain is accommodated in the vicinity of the 2021 event, we analyzed Sentinel‐1 interferometric ...

Coseismic Underground Rupture, Geometry, Historical Surface Deformations, and Seismic Potentials of the 28 March 2019 Mw 5.04 Mangya Earthquake Fault [PDF]

open access: yesTectonics, 2020
AbstractThe 28 March 2019 Mw 5.04 Mangya earthquake damaged eight ongoing drilling boreholes in the oil‐production Yingxiong Ling (YXL) area, southwestern Qaidam of northern Tibet. The borehole damages provide an opportunity to measure directly the coseismic slips, the rupture area, and the seismic moment.

Crustal deformation in extensional regimes: Iceland, Nevada and SW Turkey [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
In 1991 a 23-point, 30 x 25 km, GPS geodetic network was established in the Hengill ridge-ridge-transform triple junction, SW Iceland. The GPS data were processed using the Bernese V3.2 software.

The Effect of Hydraulic Fracturing on the 2021 Ms 6.0 Luxian Earthquake as Revealed by Deformation and Numerical Simulations

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract This study investigates whether hydraulic fracturing contributed to the 2021 Ms 6.0 Luxian earthquake in the Sichuan Basin. Time‐series InSAR analysis of multi‐temporal Sentinel‐1 data reveals coseismic deformation associated with the 2021 Luxian earthquake and localized uplift near hydraulic fracturing platforms.

Using Space Geodesy to Constrain Variations in Seismogenic Behavior on Subduction Megathrusts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The concept of seismogenic asperities and aseismic barriers has become a useful paradigm within which to understand the seismogenic behavior of major faults.

Fluid‐Induced Magnetic Enhancement in Sandstone Friction Experiments: Implications for Coseismic Fault Temperature Estimates

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract Constraining peak temperature during seismic slip is essential for quantifying earthquake energy budgets and fault weakening. Rock magnetic methods provide a sensitive means of estimating shear‐induced coseismic temperature rise; however, the role of fluids in friction‐induced magnetic alterations remains poorly constrained.
