In for a penny: An empirical study of earthquake experience and non‐pharmaceutical intervention effectiveness in the Marche region

Annals of Public and Cooperative Economics, Volume 97, Issue 2, Page 469-501, June 2026.
Abstract This study investigates whether prior exposure to natural disasters influenced individual compliance with non‐pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs), specifically lockdown measures, during the Corona Virus Infectious Disease 2019 (COVID‐19) pandemic. Focusing on the Marche region of Italy, which experienced a severe earthquake in 2016, we exploit

Improving deep learning for earthquake detection and localization with big data and high-performance computation in Hawai’i

Machine Learning. Earth
Earthquake and volcano monitoring depend on earthquake detections and locations. With the continuous expansion of seismic networks and the surge in earthquake data volume, deep-learning-based approaches have been developed and achieved better performance

Seismic moment tensor catalog for southern Alaska [PDF]

, 2015
The files here are part of the PhD thesis work by Vipul Silwal. This supplement will be cited in a manuscript to be submitted. A seismic moment tensor catalog of 106 events was generated using body waves and surface waves.

Natural Time, Nowcasting and the Physics of Earthquakes: Estimation of Seismic Risk to Global Megacities

, 2017
This paper describes the use of the idea of natural time to propose a new method for characterizing the seismic risk to the world's major cities at risk of earthquakes. Rather than focus on forecasting, which is the computation of probabilities of future

Map and Archival Evidence of the Historical Avulsion of the Brahmaputra River

The Geographical Journal, Volume 192, Issue 2, June 2026.
Short Abstract One of the world's great rivers, the Brahmaputra, avulsed—changed course—significantly sometime between the dates of 1765 and 1830. These are the dates of surveys by James Rennell (grey) and Richard Wilcox (black), both under the direction of the East India Company; no other surveys between these dates can refine the estimate of the ...

Earthquake networks based on similar activity patterns

, 2012
Earthquakes are a complex spatiotemporal phenomenon, the underlying mechanism for which is still not fully understood despite decades of research and analysis. We propose and develop a network approach to earthquake events.

Rate‐Dependent Incompleteness of Earthquake Catalogs [PDF]

Seismological Research Letters, 2016
Important information about the earthquake generation process can be gained from instrumental earthquake catalogs, but this requires complete recordings to avoid biased results. The local completeness magnitude Mc is known to depend on general conditions such as the seismographic network and the environmental noise, which generally limit the ...

Seismic Precursors to the Blatten, Switzerland Landslide Revealed by Unsupervised Machine Learning

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.
Abstract The transition from stable to unstable states in geological systems, such as landslides and fault zones, remains poorly understood. Seismic precursors and foreshocks related to the transition, if present, are often difficult to observe, and their interpretation remains challenging.

Distinct Yet Adjacent Earthquake Sequences near the Mendocino Triple Junction: 20 December 2021 Mw 6.1 and 6.0 Petrolia, and 20 December 2022 Mw 6.4 Ferndale

The Seismic Record
Two earthquake sequences occurred a year apart at the Mendocino Triple Junction in northern California: first the 20 December 2021 Mw 6.1 and 6.0 Petrolia sequence, then the 20 December 2022 Mw 6.4 Ferndale sequence.

Law for the distance between successive earthquakes

, 2003
Discovery of a new law for three dimensional spatial distance between the foci of successive earthquakes is reported. Analyzing the seismic data taken between 1984 and 2001 in southern California, it is found that the cumulative distribution of the ...
