Reappraisal and Analysis of Macroseismic Data for Seismotectonic Purposes: The Strong Earthquakes of Southern Calabria, Italy

open access: yesGeosciences, 2023
In tectonically active areas, such as the Italian peninsula, studying the faults responsible for strong earthquakes is often challenging, especially when the earthquakes occurred in historical times. In such cases, geoscientists need to integrate all the

Exceptionally Elongated Strike‐Slip Rupture Caused by the 2025 MW 7.8 Myanmar Earthquake

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract The interplay between fault geometry and rupture behavior remains poorly understood. The 2025 Myanmar earthquake ruptured the Sagaing fault, a major continental strike‐slip fault with simple geometry. We integrated geodetic and teleseismic observations to investigate its rupture process through finite‐fault kinematic inversions and back ...

On the evolution of elastic properties during laboratory stick-slip experiments spanning the transition from slow slip to dynamic rupture [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The physical mechanisms governing slow earthquakes remain unknown, as does the relationship between slow and regular earthquakes. To investigate the mechanism(s) of slow earthquakes and related quasi-dynamic modes of fault slip we performed laboratory ...

Frictional Heterogeneity Governs Slip Partitioning and Seismic Hazard in the 2023 Turkey Earthquake Doublet

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract Quantifying fault frictional properties is fundamental to understanding slip behavior and seismic hazard. We analyze 2 years of Sentinel‐1 SAR data following the 2023 Turkey earthquake doublet using Independent Component Analysis‐enhanced Small Baseline Subset‐InSAR, to resolve postseismic deformation and invert for afterslip on the East ...

Source parameters of the great Sumatran megathrust earthquakes of 1797 and 1833 inferred from coral microatolls [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Large uplifts and tilts occurred on the Sumatran outer arc islands between 0.5° and 3.3°S during great historical earthquakes in 1797 and 1833, as judged from relative sea level changes recorded by annually banded coral heads.

Injection Induced Seismicity in Complex Fault Zone Architecture

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract Modeling of injection‐induced seismicity plays a significant role in understanding the seismic risks associated with different anthropogenic activities including sub‐surface energy harvesting and CO2 ${\text{CO}}_{2}$ sequestration. Here we investigate multi‐cycle modeling of induced seismicity in a complex fault zone hosting a primary fault ...

The May 2012 Emilia (Italy) earthquakes: preliminary interpretations on the seismogenic source and the origin of the coseismic ground effects

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 2012
On May 20, 2012, a Ml 5.9 earthquake (T1) occurred in the Emilia-Romagna Region of northern Italy. This was preceded by a Ml 4.1 foreshock on May 19, 2012, and followed by several aftershocks, including two Ml 5.1 events, both on the same day. On May 29,

Assessing the Yuli surface deformation from the 20220918 Chishang earthquake: an integrated RTK GNSS network approach

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2023
The 20220918 Chishang earthquake impacted the Yuli area in the Longitudinal Valley of eastern Taiwan. Longitudinal Valley is situated near the boundary of the Philippine Plate and Eurasian Plate boundary with frequent seismicity and historical ...

Evidence for postseismic deformation of the lower crust following the 2004 Mw6.0 Parkfield earthquake [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Previous studies have shown that postseismic relaxation following the 2004 Mw6.0 Parkfield, CA, earthquake is dominated by afterslip. However, we show that some fraction of the afterslip inferred from kinematic inversion to have occurred immediately ...
