The recent 2007 Portugal earthquake (Mw=6.1) in the seismotectonic context of the SW Atlantic area [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
An event of magnitude Mw 6.1(EMSC) occurred on 12/02/2007 at 10:35 UTC off coast of South-Western Portugal. The earthquake had its epicentre in the eastern Horseshoe Abyssal Plain, at 175 km South-West of San Vicente Cape (Figure 1).

Forecasting the full distribution of earthquake numbers is fair, robust and better [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Forecasting the full distribution of the number of earthquakes is revealed to be inherently superior to forecasting their mean. Forecasting the full distribution of earthquake numbers is also shown to yield robust projections in the presence of "surprise" large earthquakes, which in the past have strongly deteriorated the scores of existing models.

Fluid‐Driven Seismicity in the Baihetan Reservoir Area Revealed by 3D Seismic Tomography Based on Dense Seismic Arrays

open access: yesEarth and Space Science
After impounding the Baihetan Water Reservoir in a historically seismically active area, numerous earthquakes occurred, but it is uncertain if they are connected to the impoundment.

Earthen construction: structural vulnerabilities and retrofit solutions for seismic actions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Earthen structures present very appealing characteristics regarding a more sustainable practice with the preservation of our natural resources. However, when subjected to earthquake ground motions, this type of construction may present a deficient ...

Advancements in deep tectonics and dynamic mechanisms beneath the eastern Tibetan Plateau—Inspirations from the 9th and 10th WTGTP Workshops

open access: yes地球与行星物理论评
The Tibetan Plateau, known as the "Roof of the World" , is one of the most tectonically complex areas on Earth. Its deep tectonics and dynamical mechanisms have been the focus of intense research in the fields of deep geophysics and continental dynamics.
