The 2012 Thabeikkjin (Myanmar) M 7.0 earthquake and its surface rupture characteristics
Dizhi lixue xuebao, 2022 Based on the first-hand data obtained from the field survey in terms of geology, landforms, earthquake ruins, this paper focuses on the activity behavior of the Sagaing fault, as well as the damaged buildings and seismic surface rupture zone generated by

Surface Rupturing and Buried Dynamic-Rupture Models Calibrated with Statistical Observations of Past Earthquakes [PDF]
Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 2008 In the context of the slip-weakening friction model and simplified asper- ity models for stress state, we calibrate dynamic rupture models for buried and surface-rupturing earthquakes constrained with statistical observations of past earth- quakes. These observations are the kinematic source models derived from source in- versions of ground-motion and ...

Remote sensing looks at an intraplate earthquake surface rupture
Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1993 On December 25, 1989, a magnitude Ms 6.3 earthquake in the Ungava peninsula of Northern Quebec, Canada, produced the first surface rupture in Eastern North America [Adams et al., 1991]. An integrated analysis of remotely sensed data and total field aeromagnetic was done to improve our understanding of the earthquake's regional geological environment ...

Differences in ground motion and fault rupture process between the surface and buried rupture earthquakes [PDF]
Earth, Planets and Space, 2014 We have studied differences in ground motion and fault rupture characteristics between surface rupture and buried rupture earthquakes. We found that the ground motion generated by buried rupture in the period range around 1 second is on average 1.5 times larger than the average empirical relationship.

Slip distributions on active normal faults measured from LiDAR and field mapping of geomorphic offsets: an example from L'Aquila, Italy, and implications for modelling seismic moment release [PDF]
, 2014 Surface slip distributions for an active normal fault in central Italy have been measured using terrestrial laser scanning (TLS), in order to assess the impact of changes in fault orientation and kinematics when modelling subsurface slip distributions ...

Phanerozoic Large Igneous Province, Petroleum System, and Source Rock Links
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 191-228., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.
