Present‐Day Kinematics of Continental Greece and Balkans Revealed by Sentinel‐1 InSAR Data

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The Balkan Peninsula hosts the highest seismic activity in Europe, marked by numerous Mw6+ earthquakes in diverse tectonic settings. Assessing tectonic surface deformation is crucial to understand the forces controlling kinematics and, ultimately, constraining geodynamic models. However, because measuring slow velocity rates (a few mm/yr) with

Thermal and Structural Signatures Associated With Subducted Seamounts in Hyuga‐nada and Off Cape Muroto, Southwest Japan

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract We present heat flow estimates beneath the forearc slopes off Hyuga‐nada and Cape Muroto in the Nankai Trough, where the Philippine Sea plate subducts beneath the southwestern Japan. Using seismic reflection data, we identified Bottom Simulating Reflectors and derived heat flow ranging from 20 to >140 mW/m2.

Poroelastic effects associated with earthquakes on overpressured reverse and normal faults

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
Earthquakes in fluid-saturated rocks induce sudden changes in pore-pressures that can lead to appreciable postseismic deformation. However, earthquakes can also release fluids from overpressured parts of the crust, which can also contribute to additional

The 1997-1998 Umbria-Marche post-earthquakes investigation: Perspective from a decade of analyses and debates on the surface fractures

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 2008
The Umbria-Marche sequence represents the first case in Italy for which the surface effects of a moderate seismic event (5<M<6) were systematically investigated and documented.

The Spatiotemporal Evolution of Creep on the Southern San Andreas Fault Between 2015–2021

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The Southern San Andreas fault (SSAF) in the Coachella Valley experiences shallow creep and slow slip events (SSE), which re‐distribute stresses in the seismogenic zone and affect the potential of future earthquakes. Although average creep rates are relatively well‐constrained, untangling the details of spatiotemporal variation in creep along ...

Coseismic deformation due to the 2011 Tohoku-oki earthquake: influence of 3-D elastic structure around Japan

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2016
We investigated the effects of elastic heterogeneity on coseismic deformation associated with the 2011 Tohoku-oki earthquake, Japan, using a 3-D finite element model, incorporating the geometry of regional plate boundaries.

Interseismic Strain Accumulation and Partitioning in Hispaniola From GNSS and InSAR

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract We combine GNSS and InSAR observations to constrain the spatial distribution of strain across the northeastern Caribbean plate boundary, focusing on Hispaniola, to investigate strain partitioning and fault slip rates in an actively deforming tectonic setting with significant seismic hazard.

First Field Evidence of Coseismic Land‐Level Change Associated with the 25 December 2016 Mw 7.6 Chiloé, Chile, Earthquake

open access: yesBulletin of The Seismological Society of America (BSSA), 2018
Assessments of megathrust earthquake rupture patterns provide fundamental insights into the processes that control the seismic cycle along subduction zones.

Use of the ESI-2007 scale to evaluate the 2003 Boumerdès earthquake (North Algeria)

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 2016
In this study, we applied the environmental seismic intensity (ESI-2007) scale to a major recent Algerian earthquake. The ESI-2007 scale is an effective tool to assess the seismic hazard and has been applied to onshore earthquakes.
