A new consistent and high-precision earthquake catalogue for the Taupō Volcanic Zone, New Zealand

Seismica
The Taupō Volcanic Zone is a ~300 km long, volcanically active region in the North Island of Aotearoa New Zealand. As well as hosting numerous active volcanoes, it is also one of the most seismically active parts of the country.

How cold is too cold? A theoretical analysis of the optimal trigger for index insurance for frost damage to crops

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Crop insurance is undoubtedly an extremely valuable element in protecting agricultural businesses, but in many cases standard indemnity‐based products have had very low uptake due to high transaction costs elevating premiums to unaffordable levels.

Relocating a Cluster of Earthquakes Using a Single Seismic Station [PDF]

Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 2013
Coda waves arise from scattering to form the later arriving components of a seismogram. Coda‐wave interferometry (CWI) is an emerging tool for constraining earthquake source properties from the interference pattern of coda waves between nearby events. A new earthquake location algorithm is derived which relies on coda‐wave‐based probabilistic estimates

Relocation and Magnitude for Earthquakes in the Outer Arabian Platform of Iraq

The Iraqi Geological Journal, 2023
In this study, a large seismological dataset from the Mesopotamian Network (MP) and the Iranian Seismological Center (IRSC) was analyzed to relocate earthquakes with magnitude Mw ≥ 4 for the period between August 2014 and April 2021 that occurred in the Outer Arabian Plateform of Iraq. The Computer Programs in Seismology (CPS) was used for this purpose.

The effect of extreme wildfire exposure on energy poverty: Evidence from Australia's Black Saturday bushfires

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This study assesses the effects of the 2009 Black Saturday Bushfires (BSB), which primarily occurred in rural regions of Victoria and represent the deadliest bushfire event in Australia's history, on household energy poverty. Using a linear panel event‐study, an entropy‐balanced event‐study, and a staggered difference‐in‐differences (DiD ...

Physical Properties in the Northern Ecuador Subduction Zone Appear to Contribute to the Occurrence of Moderate-to-Strong Earthquakes and Aftershock Propagation

Remote Sensing
Megathrust faults in subduction zones often serve as seismogenic environments for destructive earthquakes. To verify whether the material properties of subduction zones influence aftershock propagation and earthquake magnitude, we investigated the ...

The psychosocial toll of Dublin III on asylum seekers in the Netherlands

American Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Dublin III Regulation determines which EU Member State is responsible for examining asylum claims, but its implementation carries significant consequences for those subjected to it. This study examines how Dublin III, as implemented in the Netherlands, affects asylum seekers' psychosocial wellbeing using Silove′s Adaptation and Development
