Double difference earthquake location with graph neural networks

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space
Double difference earthquake relocation is an essential component of many earthquake catalog development workflows. This technique produces high-resolution relative relocations between events by minimizing differential measurements of the arrival times ...

Seismicity and Surface Deformation in Kamanjab Inlier, Northern Namibia

open access: yesSeismica
The last two decades have seen the onset of felt earthquakes, including occasionally damaging events, in the Kamanjab Inlier, a block of Paleoproterozoic crystalline basement in northern Namibia. The Geological Survey of Namibia (GSN) and the Council for

Relocation of the 1999 Chi-Chi Earthquake in Taiwan

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2000
The 1999 Chi-Chi earthquake in Taiwan represented the island’s largest inland seismic event of the last century. This earthquake severely struck the western-middle part of the island. Abundant high-resolution digital seismic data were recorded by two seismic networks operated by the Central Weather Bureau (CWB). In this paper, we combined data from two

Ensemble‐based soil liquefaction assessment: Leveraging CPT data for enhanced predictions

open access: yesCivil Engineering Design, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 23-35, March 2025.
Abstract This study focuses on predicting soil liquefaction, a critical phenomenon that can significantly impact the stability and safety of structures during seismic events. Accurate liquefaction assessment is vital for geotechnical engineering, as it informs the design and mitigation strategies needed to safeguard infrastructure and reduce the risk ...

Evidence for Anthropogenic Surface Loading as Trigger Mechanism of the 2008 Wenchuan Earthquake

open access: yes, 2011
Two and a half years prior to China's M7.9 Wenchuan earthquake of May 2008, at least 300 million metric tons of water accumulated with additional seasonal water level changes in the Minjiang River Valley at the eastern margin of the Longmen Shan.

Structural heterogeneity in the megathrust zone and mechanism of the 2011 Tohoku-oki earthquake (Mw 9.0) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The great 2011 Tohoku-oki earthquake (Mw 9.0) and its 339 foreshocks and 5,609 aftershocks (9–27 March 2011) were relocated using a three-dimensional seismic velocity model and local P and S wave arrival times.

High resolution catalog of the Luxian (Sichuan, China) MS6.0 earthquake sequence and analysis of the seismogenic structuresKey points

open access: yesEarthquake Science
The epicenter of the Luxian MS6.0 earthquake on September 16, 2021, was located in the southern Sichuan Basin, which is a historically seismically quiescent area.

Constraints on Complex Faulting during the 1996 Ston–Slano (Croatia) Earthquake Inferred from the DInSAR, Seismological, and Geological Observations

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
This study, involving remote sensing, seismology, and geology, revealed complex faulting during the mainshock of the Ston–Slano earthquake sequence (5 September, 1996, Mw = 6.0). The observed DInSAR interferogram fringe patterns could not be explained by

Relocation of earthquakes west of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, 1965–1983

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Earth Sciences, 1992
In the tectonically complex region of young plate interaction west of Vancouver Island, 360 earthquakes have been relocated. The earthquakes occurred in the years 1965 – 1983, when the Canadian seismograph network in the region did not significantly change configuration, and are in the magnitude range 3–5. A traveltime model was derived and applied to

Blasting effects of cross‐fault deep‐buried excavation on adjacent existing tunnel stability

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Based on the theoretical analysis of cylindrical wave propagation in a deep rock mass in the fault with a filling layer, the calculation method of peak particle velocity caused by wave propagation in the existing tunnel is established. The viscoelastic characteristics of a rock mass are examined in the analysis.
