Landslide Susceptibility Assessment at the Basin Scale for Rainfall- and Earthquake-Triggered Shallow Slides

Geosciences, 2019
The hydrographic basin of Ribeira Grande (S. Miguel Island, Azores) has a set of characteristics that enhance the occurrence of shallow slides that have been triggered by rainfall and earthquakes.

Automated Detection of Dynamic Earthquake Triggering by the High‐Frequency Power Integral Ratio

Geophysical Research Letters, 2019
Dynamic earthquake triggering can be used to investigate the responses of faults to stress disturbances. We develop a new method to detect dynamic triggering by estimating high‐frequency energy change before and during teleseismic waves using the HIgh ...

Recent Seismic Sequences and Activation of Normal Fault Systems in the Mugello Basin and Surrounding Areas (Northern Apennines, Italy)

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The Mugello Basin (North-Eastern Tuscany) is an intermontane basin of the Northern Apennines (Italy) with a well-documented record of seismicity; the two major historical earthquakes occurred in 1542 (Mw = 6.0) and in 1919 (Mw = 6.4).

Frictional stability and earthquake triggering during fluid pressure stimulation of an experimental fault

, 2017
It is widely recognized that the significant increase of M > 3.0 earthquakes in Western Canada and the Central United States is related to underground fluid injection. Following injection, fluid overpressure lubricates the fault and reduces the effective

Triggers of Chile’s mega-earthquakes

Nature Geoscience, 2023
Megathrust earthquakes along subduction zones present significant hazards. Evidence from the South Chile subduction zone suggests that the structure and fluid distribution of the megathrust interface governs the size and timing of large earthquakes.

Viscoelastic Slider Blocks as a Model for a Seismogenic Fault

Entropy, 2023
In this work, a model is proposed to examine the role of viscoelasticity in the generation of simulated earthquake-like events. This model serves to investigate how nonlinear processes in the Earth’s crust affect the triggering and decay patterns of ...

Theory of Earthquake Recurrence Times [PDF]

, 2006
The statistics of recurrence times in broad areas have been reported to obey universal scaling laws, both for single homogeneous regions (Corral, 2003) and when averaged over multiple regions (Bak et al.,2002).

The physics of earthquakes [PDF]

, 2004
Earthquakes occur as a result of global plate motion. However, this simple picture is far from complete. Some plate boundaries glide past each other smoothly, while others are punctuated by catastrophic failures.
