Earthquake Moment Magnitudes from Peak Ground Displacements and Synthetic Green's Functions

Seismica
We suggest an approach employing full waveforms from synthetic seismograms to estimate moment magnitudes and their uncertainties from peak amplitudes. The new method is theoretically derived.

Redescription of the Triassic cynodont Cistecynodon parvus and reassessment of its phylogeny

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Cynodontia is an important subclade of Therapsida that first occurred in the late Permian. It includes extinct subclades which are the non‐mammaliaform cynodonts and Mammaliaformes, with the latter ultimately giving rise to crown mammals. The systematics of non‐mammaliaform cynodonts has been extensively studied and is relatively well‐resolved,

Coseismic Frictional Heating With Concomitant Hydrothermal Fluid Circulation Revealed by Rock Magnetic Properties of Fault Rocks From the Rupture of the 2008 Wenchuan Earthquake, China

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2023
Coseismic frictional heating and associated hydrothermal fluid circulation play an essential role in the dynamic weakening of seismic faults. However, temperature rise induced by frictional heating during an earthquake is still difficult to constrain ...

A Geomorphometric Approach to Estimate the Deterioration of Earthen Archaeological Sites by Rainfall and Diffusion Processes: The Huaca Chornancap (Eighth–14th Century ad), Lambayeque, Peru

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rain‐induced erosion processes can severely damage Earthen archaeological sites. Huaca Chornancap (HCH; eighth–14th century ad) is a platform located in the Lambayeque region (Peru) exposed to seasonal rain due to El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO).

A deformation-driven earthquake interaction model for seismicity at Campi Flegrei

Communications Earth & Environment
Since 2005, the Campi Flegrei nested caldera volcano, located about 10 km west of Naples, Italy, has experienced accelerating uplift accompanied by increased seismicity, raising concerns in this densely populated area.

Challenges and Opportunities in Multi‐Method Integrated Geophysical Prospection of Buried Building Remains at the Sanctuary of Olympia

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ancient Olympia was one of the most important sanctuaries and the venue for the Olympic Games in Greek and Roman times. Its remains are located in the Olympia Terrace (Peloponnese, Greece) at the present‐day confluence of the rivers Alpheios and Kladeos at the base of Mount Kronos.

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 ...

Scanning Parametric Sediment Echosounder as Tool for Underwater Archaeological Prospection

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Underwater cultural heritage 3D prospection techniques, especially for remains that are partly buried in the ground, are only very rarely available and often can only be applied with considerable technical effort. To overcome this limitation, we evaluate a methodological adaption of widely used and available single channel parametric sediment ...

New Advance in Land-Controlled-Source Audio-Frequency Magnetotellurics Exploration: Measurement at a Shortened Transmitter–Receiver Offset and Three-Dimensional Inversion

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
Ambient noise significantly affects the quality of land-controlled-source audio-frequency magnetotellurics (CSAMT) data. Shortening the transmitter–receiver offset can enhance the raw data signal-to-noise ratios (S/N).
