A Comparative Study of the Sumatran Subduction-Zone Earthquakes of 1935 and 1984 [PDF]
A M_s 7.7 earthquake struck the western, equatorial coast of Sumatra in December 1935. It was the largest event in the region since the two devastating giant earthquakes of 1833 and 1861.

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
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

Fluid-driven seismicity in a stable tectonic context: The Remiremont fault zone, Vosges, France [PDF]
Some relocated seismic events, which have small magnitudes (ML < 4.8), are found to align along a 40 km-long fault zone flanking the southern Vosges Massif to the west. It joins to the south with the epicentral area of the historical 1682 earthquake (Io =

Geophysical implications from relocations of Tibetan Earthquakes; Hot lithosphere
ISC locations for earthquakes beneath Tibet indicate a random distribution of events down to a depth of about 50 km. This distribution would be expected from a relatively cool crust which would allow the seismo‐genic zone to extend to such depths. A detailed investigation of the Tibetan earthquakes, with magnitude greater than 5.5 from 1964 to 1986 ...
