Interseismic coupling and seismic potential along the Central Andes subduction zone [PDF]
We use about two decades of geodetic measurements to characterize interseismic strain build up along the Central Andes subduction zone from Lima, Peru, to Antofagasta, Chile.

A Comparative Study of the Sumatran Subduction-Zone Earthquakes of 1935 and 1984 [PDF]
A M_s 7.7 earthquake struck the western, equatorial coast of Sumatra in December 1935. It was the largest event in the region since the two devastating giant earthquakes of 1833 and 1861.

Continental breakup and UHP rock exhumation in action: GPS results from the Woodlark Rift, Papua New Guinea [PDF]
We show results from a network of campaign Global Positioning System (GPS) sites in the Woodlark Rift, southeastern Papua New Guinea, in a transition from seafloor spreading to continental rifting. GPS velocities indicate anticlockwise rotation (at 2–2.7°

Interseismic Locking of the Xiaojiang Fault May Be Controlled by Pore Fluid Pressure
Although fault locking state has been widely acquired with space geodetic observations, the mechanisms controlling fault locking are poorly known.

InSAR velocity field across the North Anatolian Fault (eastern Turkey): Implications for the loading and release of interseismic strain accumulation [PDF]
International audienceWe use the Persistent Scatterer Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (PS-InSAR) technique with the European Space Agency's Envisat and ERS SAR data acquired on three neighboring descending tracks (T350, T078, and T307) to map ...

Timing of initiation of reverse displacement on the Taranaki Fault, northern Taranaki Basin: Constraints from the on land record (Oligocene Te Kuiti Group) [PDF]
Structures associated with the wedge of basement overthrust into Taranaki Basin along the Taranaki Fault, are regarded as hydrocarbon plays and have been tested by drilling through the tip of the overthrust.
