Stories of relocation to the Waikato: Spaces of emotion and affect in the 2010/2011 Canterbury earthquakes, Aotearoa New Zealand

open access: yes, 2014
Emotion and affect are enmeshed in the lives of relocated Cantabrians. A project on the lived geographies of relocation disrupts the predominance of model based approaches in hazards and disaster literature.

Recent Crustal Deformation in West-Central South America [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
I use interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) to create maps of crustal deformation along the coast and within the volcanic arc of central South America. I image deformation associated with six subduction zone earthquakes, four volcanic centers,

From Corporate Social Responsibility to Organizational Resilience: The Role of Sustainability Control Systems and Governance Heterogeneity

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Corporate social responsibility (CSR) has increasingly been recognized as a strategic lever for enhancing organizational resilience. Although CSR literature is abundant, prior research has not fully explained how distinct CSR types, such as altruistic, promotional, and value‐creating, influence organizational resilience through sustainability ...

Earthquake relocation in the wester termination of the North Aegean Trough

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Greece, 2018
The area of North Aegean Trough exhibits complex tectonic characteristics as a consequence of the presence of complicated active structures. Exploitation of accurately determined earthquake data considerably contributes in the investigation of these structures and such accuracy is seeking through certain procedures.

Study on the failure mechanism of the shield excavation face in the sandy cobble stratum under different buried depths

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract One of the significant challenges faced in shield tunnel construction is the risk of collapse resulting from abrupt changes in soil conditions in advance of the working face, particularly within the sandy cobble stratum. This study aims to effectively manage these sudden variations and to further investigate the failure mechanisms associated ...

Relocation of Earthquakes in the Labrador Sea and southern Labrador

open access: yes, 1991
Ninety-eight earthquakes in Labrador and the Labrador Sea have been systematically relocated. Their revised locations show a good correlation between seismicity and geolog­ical structures. Most of the earthquakes occur on three structures: the extinct spreading ridge and associated transform faults in the Labrador Sea; the rifted continental margin off

COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS OF OKLAHOMA EARTHQUAKES: FROM EARTHQUAKE MONITORING TO 3D TOMOGRAPHY AND RELOCATION [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A better understanding of the basement, such as rock properties and faults orientation, is critical to study the earthquakes in central Oklahoma. The active seismicity in this region provides a great opportunity to study the velocity structures in the ...

Resonance‐induced restoration of rock permeability degraded by heavy components of crude oil

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Resonance‐induced changes occur in filtration properties of sedimentary rocks in crude paraffin oil flow under acoustic vibrations. Experimental data on (a) pressure drop; (b) permeability; (c) pressure at the rock inlet; and (d) pressure at the rock outlet are presented.
