Importance of forearc topography for the triggering of aftershocks of megathrust earthquakes: insights from mechanical models and the Tohoku-Oki and Maule earthquakes [PDF]
Aftershocks of megathrust earthquakes at subduction zones may be driven by stresses arising from the topography of the forearc. However, the effect of topographic stresses on aftershock triggering is quantitatively not well understood and has been ...

Coulomb stress changes and magnitude-frequency distribution for Lake Van region
The tectonic structure of Türkiye is under the influence of Arabian, Eurasian, African, and Anatolian plates. Lake Van region, located in eastern Türkiye, has been exposed to many devastating earthquakes in historical and instrumental periods. In this paper, using regional earthquakes, the tectonic stress variation of Lake Van region was investigated ...

Coulomb Stress Change of Mw 7.5 Palu-Donggala Earthquake, Sulawesi (28 September 2018)
The Mw 7.5 Palu earthquake that occurred in Palu-Central Sulawesi, Indonesia, on September 28, 2018, accompanied by the tsunami and liquefaction caused casualties and building damage in the city of Palu and its surroundings. One month later, a series of earthquakes swarm occurred in Mamasa, West Sulawesi.
