Earthquakes are sudden and destructive natural events caused by tectonic movements in the Earth’s crust. Although they cannot be predicted with certainty, rapid and reliable detection is essential to reduce loss of life and property.

Earthquake detection by computer
A new computer model has been developed that describes the way rock formations dilate under stress. This computer, used in conjunction with laboratory observations of rock deformation, has provided ‘the first significant step toward predicting the place, time and even magnitude of an impending earthquake,’ according to J.T.

Redescription of the Triassic cynodont Cistecynodon parvus and reassessment of its phylogeny
Abstract Cynodontia is an important subclade of Therapsida that first occurred in the late Permian. It includes extinct subclades which are the non‐mammaliaform cynodonts and Mammaliaformes, with the latter ultimately giving rise to crown mammals. The systematics of non‐mammaliaform cynodonts has been extensively studied and is relatively well‐resolved,

Earthquake Magnitude Detection Utilizing a Novel Hybrid Earth–Transformer–LSTM Architecture
One of the complicated and demanding tasks in seismology is the reliable detection of earthquakes. The key challenge is that the detection models must be applied to a specific region, and models trained on one region may not perform as well in others ...

针对微震事件易受噪声干扰等特点,本文将STA/LTA方法和基于方差的AIC方法(var-AIC)相结合,在震相到时初步拾取的基础上,使用台站的德洛内(Delaunay)三角剖分及台站间最大走时差约束来减少噪声干扰的影响. 利用到时进行地震定位之后,根据台站预测到时,在设定的时间窗内对地震震相进行更精细的分析. 特别是针对微震事件信噪比低的特点,设计了基于偏振分析的拾取函数,根据窗内STA/LTA方法和var-AIC方法的拾取结果自动选择合适的值作为震相到时.

Fiber-optic earthquake detection [PDF]
Seismology The seismic networks used to detect earthquakes are limited spatially because they require expensive seismometers to be placed, monitored, and maintained. Lindsey et al. show how fiber optics can be used for seismic recording, using a technique known as distributed acoustic sensing (DAS). Three examples show how DAS can detect ground motions—

ABSTRACT Medieval and early modern drowned villages in the intertidal zone of the Scheldt estuary (the Netherlands) constitute intriguing yet largely understudied components of north‐western Europe's underwater cultural heritage. Despite their high archaeological potential as time capsules of past settlement landscapes, research has remained limited ...
