Tectonic tremors in the Northern Mexican subduction zone remotely triggered by the 2017 M w8.2 Tehuantepec earthquake

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2021
Surface waves from the 2017 M w8.2 Tehuantepec earthquake remotely triggered tectonic tremors in the Jalisco region, approximately 1000 km WNW in the northern Mexican subduction zone.

Landslides triggered by the 2015 Mw 6.0 Sabah (Malaysia) earthquake: inventory and ESI-07 intensity assignment [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2022
On 4 June 2015, a Mw 6.0 earthquake occurred in the Sabah region (Malaysia), triggering widespread landslides along the slopes of Mt. Kinabalu. Despite the moderate magnitude, the Sabah earthquake was very efficient in triggering landslides: here I ...

Importance of small earthquakes for stress transfers and earthquake triggering

open access: yes, 2004
We estimate the relative importance of small and large earthquakes for static stress changes and for earthquake triggering, assuming that earthquakes are triggered by static stress changes and that earthquakes are located on a fractal network of ...

Recorded displacements in a landslide slope due to regional and teleseismic earthquakes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Regional and teleseismic earthquakes can induce displacements along joints in a landslideinvolved rocky slope in Central Italy. The rarity of these effects is due to specific physical properties of the seismic signals associated with: (i) the energy ...

Pervasive Foreshock Activity Across Southern California

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2019
Foreshocks have been documented as preceding less than half of all mainshock earthquakes. These observations are difficult to reconcile with laboratory earthquake experiments and theoretical models of earthquake nucleation, which both suggest that ...

Remotely triggered subsidence acceleration in Mexico City induced by the September 2017 Mw 7.1 Puebla and the Mw 8.2 Tehuantepec September 2017 earthquakes [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences, 2020
Mexico City, a large megacity with over 21 million inhabitants, is exposed to several hazards, including land subsidence, earthquakes, and flooding.

Apparent Clustering and Apparent Background Earthquakes Biased by Undetected Seismicity

open access: yes, 2005
In models of triggered seismicity and in their inversion with empirical data, the detection threshold m_d is commonly equated to the magnitude m_0 of the smallest triggering earthquake. This unjustified assumption neglects the possibility of shocks below

Comment on "Analysis of the Spatial Distribution between Successive Earthquakes" by Davidsen and Paczuski

open access: yes, 2006
By analyzing a southern California earthquake catalog, Davidsen and Paczuski [Phys. Rev. Lett. 94, 048501 (2005)] claim to have found evidence contradicting the theory of aftershock zone scaling in favor of scale-free statistics. We present four elements
