The Greater Tehran area is the most important city of Iran and hosts about 20% of the country population. Despite the presence of major faults and the occurrence of historical earthquakes, nowadays the seismicity is relatively quite low and this enhances

Abstract Determining marsquake magnitudes is essential for assessing seismic activity on Mars, yet previous estimates neglect three‐dimensional (3D) scattering effects. The exceptionally long‐lasting coda of the largest recorded marsquake, S1222a, provides a unique opportunity to quantify how crustal heterogeneities affect waveform propagation and ...

Low-rise reinforced concrete (RC) frames with brick masonry infill walls up to five stories high have been used for housing construction in Nepal since the late 1980s. Many buildings of this type were damaged and/or collapsed in the 25 April 2015 Gorkha

Fault‐Controlled Plumbing System Beneath Lipari Volcanic Island Revealed by Seismic Matrix Imaging
Abstract Lipari Island hosts an active magmatic–hydrothermal system, but its deep plumbing architecture remains poorly resolved due to strong seismic scattering. We apply passive seismic matrix imaging to public vertical‐component cross‐correlation functions from the dense 2018 Lipari nodal array, recovering relative‐reflectivity structures to ∼10 km ...

Spatially heterogenous Holocene slip rates drive seismic sequence variability on normal faults
Spatial variations in long-term (e.g. Holocene) slip rates along faults are a source of uncertainty in fault-based seismic hazard assessment (SHA), but their effect on seismicity rates and magnitude-frequency distributions remains underexplored.

Abstract The Pamir, located at the northwestern margin of the Tibetan Plateau, is undergoing E–W extension within its interior, accommodated by micro‐block motions along major fault systems; however, the mechanisms governing this modern block kinematics remain elusive.

Abstract Estimating Mercury's radial contraction is key to understanding the planet's geodynamic evolution. Contraction has been inferred from mapped shortening structures, whose heterogeneous distribution contradicts the isotropic contraction expected from global cooling.

Abstract We present a new 3D Hikurangi subduction interface model by using an implicit modeling approach that integrates seismic‐reflection profiles, relocated hypocenters, focal mechanism orientations, and tomographic interpretations. The model reveals along‐strike transitions in slow slip events (SSEs) that correlate with subduction interface ...

The role of epsilon for the identification of groups of earthquake inputs of given hazard
Response spectra have been used in the years not only to obtain estimations of the seismic response for given dynamic system in response spectral analysis, but also as a useful reference for the identification of design time-history inputs (when time ...

Hillslope memory and spatial and temporal distributions of earthquake-induced landslides [PDF]
Large earthquakes commonly trigger widespread and destructive landsliding. However, current approaches to modeling regional-scale landslide activity do not account for the temporal evolution of progressive failure in brittle hillslope materials ...
