Pervasive Foreshock Activity Across Southern California [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2019
Foreshocks have been documented as preceding less than half of all mainshock earthquakes. These observations are difficult to reconcile with laboratory earthquake experiments and theoretical models of earthquake nucleation, which both suggest that ...

Mainshocks are aftershocks of conditional foreshocks: How do foreshock statistical properties emerge from aftershock laws [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2003
The inverse Omori law for foreshocks discovered in the 1970s states that the rate of earthquakes prior to a mainshock increases on average as a power law ~ 1/(t_c-t)^p' of the time to the mainshock occurring at t_c.

Observations of a new foreshock region upstream of a foreshock bubble's shock [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2016
Earth's foreshock is a region within the solar wind upstream of Earth's bow shock filled with backstreaming solar wind particles reflected at the shock.

Traveling Foreshocks and Transient Foreshock Phenomena [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2017
AbstractWe use the multispacecraft capabilities of the Cluster and Time History of Events and Macroscale Interactions during Substorms (THEMIS) missions to show that two types of foreshock may be detected in spacecraft data. One is the global foreshock that appears upstream of the Earth's quasi‐parallel bow shock under steady or variable interplanetary

Compound electron acceleration at planetary foreshocks. [PDF]

open access: yesNat Commun
AbstractShock waves, the interface of supersonic and subsonic plasma flows, are the primary region for charged particle acceleration in multiple space plasma systems, including Earth’s bow shock, which is readily accessible for in-situ measurements. Spacecraft frequently observe relativistic electron populations within this region, characterized by ...

Precedent-extrapolation estimate of the seismic hazard in the Sakhalin and the Southern Kurils region [PDF]

open access: yesГеосистемы переходных зон, 2021
The paper describes the algorithm and the results of the seismic hazard estimate in the Sakhalin and Southern Kurils region based on the data of the Japan Regional Catalogue (JMA).

Cluster-based foreshock discrimination model with flexible time horizon and mainshock magnitudes

open access: yesProgress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2023
Foreshock detection before mainshock occurrence is an important challenge limiting the short-term forecasts of large earthquakes. Various models for predicting mainshocks based on discrimination of foreshocks activity have been proposed, but many of them

A global view of Pc3 wave activity in near-Earth space: Results from hybrid-Vlasov simulations

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
Ultra-low frequency (ULF) waves in the Pc3 range, with periods between 10–45 s, are routinely observed in Earth’s dayside magnetosphere. They are thought to originate in the foreshock, which extends upstream of the quasi-parallel bow shock and is ...

The ULF wave foreshock boundary: Cluster observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The interaction of backstreaming ions with the incoming solar wind in the upstream region of the bow shock gives rise to a number of plasma instabilities from which ultra-low frequency (ULF) waves can grow.

Statistical study of foreshock cavitons [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2013
In this work we perform a statistical analysis of 92 foreshock cavitons observed with the Cluster spacecraft 1 during the period 2001–2006. We analyze time intervals during which the spacecraft was located in the Earth's foreshock with durations ...
