Dynamically triggered seismicity on a tectonic scale: A review

Deep Underground Science and Engineering
Earthquakes triggered by dynamic disturbances have been confirmed by numerous observations and experiments. In the past several decades, earthquake triggering has attracted increasing attention of scholars in relation to exploring the mechanism of ...

How cold is too cold? A theoretical analysis of the optimal trigger for index insurance for frost damage to crops

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Crop insurance is undoubtedly an extremely valuable element in protecting agricultural businesses, but in many cases standard indemnity‐based products have had very low uptake due to high transaction costs elevating premiums to unaffordable levels.

Coseismic Coulomb stress changes induced by a 2020–2021 MW > 7.0 Alaska earthquake sequence in and around the Shumagin gap and its influence on the Alaska-Aleutian subduction interface

Geodesy and Geodynamics
Three MW > 7.0 earthquakes in 2020–2021 occurred in the Shumagin seismic gap and its adjacent area of the Alaska-Aleutian subduction zone, including the MW7.8 Simeonof thrust earthquake on July 22, 2020, the MW7.6 Sand Point strike-slip earthquake on ...

The effect of extreme wildfire exposure on energy poverty: Evidence from Australia's Black Saturday bushfires

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This study assesses the effects of the 2009 Black Saturday Bushfires (BSB), which primarily occurred in rural regions of Victoria and represent the deadliest bushfire event in Australia's history, on household energy poverty. Using a linear panel event‐study, an entropy‐balanced event‐study, and a staggered difference‐in‐differences (DiD ...

Study on Coulomb Stress Triggering of the April 2015 M7.8 Nepal Earthquake Sequence

International Journal of Geophysics, 2016
In April 2015, a M7.8 earthquake occurred less than one month before a M7.3 earthquake near Kodari, Nepal. The Nepal earthquake sequences also include four larger (M > 6) aftershocks. To reveal the interrelation between the main shock and the aftershocks,

Optimizing Strategies for Non‐Invasive Prospection of Settlements in the Intertidal Zone: A Case Study From the Centre of the Drowned Medieval Village of Tolsende (Scheldt Estuary, the Netherlands)

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Medieval and early modern drowned villages in the intertidal zone of the Scheldt estuary (the Netherlands) constitute intriguing yet largely understudied components of north‐western Europe's underwater cultural heritage. Despite their high archaeological potential as time capsules of past settlement landscapes, research has remained limited ...

Research on the Seismogenic Mechanism of the 2025 Mw = 6.9 Dingri Earthquake

Geosciences
Two earthquakes greater than Mw 5.5 occurred in Dingri County, Tibet, between 2020 and 2025. Whether a triggering relationship exists between them remains debated.

English teachers' journeys since the 2020 Iteration of Black Lives Matter

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The 2020 resurgence of Black Lives Matter (BLM) mobilised students in England to demand greater representation of racially minoritised voices in English curriculums—a call highlighted by stark inequity: just 1.5% of GCSE texts studied are by racially minoritised authors, despite racially minoritised students comprising 38.0% of the student ...

Resolving the biome debate: ecological and palaeo‐data concur that the extensive tree‐limited grassy biomes of central and north‐western Madagascar are largely anthropogenic

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For millennia, human activities have transformed ecosystems globally. Determining which landscapes are predominantly anthropogenic is crucial to conservation and habitat restoration. Madagascar, a critically‐threatened biodiversity hotspot, is a prominent example.

SIETAS model: Swarm-informed triggering, earthquake diffusion, and multiscaling applied to the current Campi Flegrei unrest

Physical Review Research
Earthquake diffusion is commonly interpreted either as the migration of fluids or as the propagation of triggering cascades within branching processes.
