The effect of seamount subduction on the formation of Holocene marine terraces
Earth, Planets and SpaceMarine terraces have long been a subject of paleoseismology, revealing the rupture history of megathrust earthquakes. However, the crustal deformation mechanisms responsible for their formation remain inadequately explained by conventional kinematic ...

Competing Effects of Mountain Uplift and Landslide Erosion Over Earthquake Cycles
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2019 Large earthquakes can construct mountainous topography by inducing rock uplift but also erode mountains by causing landslides. Observations following the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake show that landslide volumes in some cases match seismically induced uplift,

Stability Analysis of GNSS Stations Affected by Samos Earthquake
Applied SciencesAn earthquake cycle can cause meters of displacement on the surface and at Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) stations. This study focuses on the identification of GNSS stations that have significant displacement because of a Mw 7.0 earthquake ...

Crustal deformation in Hong Kong: Insights from GNSS observations and geophysical models
International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and GeoinformationThis study investigates crustal deformation in Hong Kong using the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) observations from 19 stations and a range of geophysical models. We examine horizontal and vertical land motions (VLM) recorded by GNSS from 2001

Unveiling nonlinear site response through time-frequency analysis of earthquake records
Geophysical Journal InternationalIt is well known that nonlinear site effects may arise in soils during strong ground motion. This translates into a decrease in propagation velocity, shift of resonance frequencies, increased material damping, and lessened ground motion amplification ...
