Is Earthquake Triggering Driven by Small Earthquakes? [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2002 Using a catalog of seismicity for Southern California, we measure how the number of triggered earthquakes increases with the earthquake magnitude. The trade-off between this relation and the distribution of earthquake magnitudes controls the relative ...

The Vanishing Volcanic Geoheritage of a Key Scoria Cone and its Significance in Volcanic Hazard Resilience of the Active Monogenetic Volcanic Field near Al Madinah, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia [PDF]
Geoconservation Research, 2023 Four small scoria cones in the western outskirts of Al Madinah City, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, form a distinct young volcanic landmark. These volcanoes, despite their very small size, provide one of the most fundamental sources of information about ...

Lithospheric Sill Intrusions and Present‐Day Ground Deformation at Rhenish Massif, Central Europe
Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 The Rhenish Massif in Central Europe, which includes the Eifel Volcanic Fields, has shown ongoing ground deformation and signs of possible unrest. A buoyant plume exerting uplift forces at the bottom of the lithosphere was proposed to explain such ...

Critical Fluid Injection Volumes for Uncontrolled Fracture Ascent
Geophysical Research Letters, 2020 Hydrofracturing is a routine industrial technique whose safety depends on fractures remaining confined within the target rock volume. Both observations and theoretical models show that, if the fluid volume is larger than a critical value, pockets of ...

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2022 Two of the most widely observed co‐eruptive volcanic phenomena—Ground deformation and volcanic outgassing—Are fundamentally linked via the mechanism of magma degassing and the development of compressibility, which controls how the volume of magma changes

Mode of Strain Release Associated with Major Earthquakes in Japan [PDF]
, 1973 It is now widely accepted that most shallow earthquakes are caused by a sudden release of tectonic stress, and therefore strain, in the form of faulting (56, Chap. 14).

Mechanics of earthquakes [PDF]
, 1994 An earthquake is a sudden rupture process in the Earth’s crust or mantle caused by tectonic stress. To understand the physics of earthquakes it is important to determine the state of stress before, during, and after an earthquake.
