ABSTRACT This paper illustrates opportunities for the use of simulated ground motions in seismic performance assessment – from seismic hazard, ground‐motion selection, response history analysis, and seismic demand hazard calculation. The illustration is through a comparative analysis with the conventional alternative of observed ground motions.

Properties of the Subduction System in Mexico [PDF]
This thesis presents seismic imaging results of the structure of the Mexican subduction zone using receiver function (RF) based on teleseismic P-to-S converted waves, in order to gain insight into the physical and chemical factors associated with ...

Constraining the Permeability and Outer‐Rise Hydration at the Central America Margin
Abstract Subduction zones are important drivers of Earth's geochemical evolution; the presence of water within the subduction system has substantial implications for geohazards, including the style of seismicity and the volume of magma generated at arc volcanoes.

Materials selection in micromechanical design: an application of the Ashby approach [PDF]
The set of materials available to microsystems designers is rapidly expanding. Techniques now exist to introduce and integrate a large number of metals, alloys, ceramics, glasses, polymers, and elastomers into microsystems, motivating the need for a ...

Abstract Seismic attenuation provides sensitivity to fracture density, fluid saturation, and pore geometry that complements velocity, enabling quantitative imaging of fracture architecture and associated fluid‐pathways in near‐surface bedrock. Yet high‐resolution attenuation models remain rare in refraction studies due to amplitude‐fidelity and ...

A Physics‐Based Frequency‐Temperature Seismic Anelastic Attenuation Model for Planetary Ice Shells
Abstract Intrinsic attenuation in planetary ices remains poorly constrained at seismic frequencies and low temperatures, limiting quantitative predictions of wave propagation in icy moons. Existing models typically rely on constant‐Q, or power‐law formulations that lack microphysical grounding and fail to capture the strong temperature sensitivity of ...

Abstract The diverse volcanic activity in the Alaska Peninsula section of the Alaska‐Aleutian subduction zone is presumably caused by substantial variations in mantle wedge melting or trans‐crustal processes beneath the arc. In this study, we investigate sub‐arc melting beneath the Alaska Peninsula by measuring P‐wave attenuation, as attenuation is ...

Abstract Accurate interpretation of time‐variable gravity from GRACE (‐FO) requires correction for glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA), which has a gravitational signal similar in magnitude to that of contemporary hydrological and cryospheric mass change.

Abstract Through bedrock deformation, solid Earth dynamics (specifically, glacial isostatic adjustment or GIA) influences ice sheet mass balance, especially for marine‐based ice sheets like the West Antarctic ice sheet (WAIS). As ice sheets retreat, crustal uplift can help stabilize a marine based ice sheet by reducing the ice exposed at the grounding ...
