Distinguishing Single and Linked Ruptures in the Laboratory and Nature
Abstract Earthquakes can grow either monotonically from a single, stressed patch or through linking multiple stressed regions. The distinction has implications for magnitude predictability with single ruptures requiring knowledge of the local stress state, while linked ruptures require knowing the global stress and energy distribution.

Abstract On 27 July and 25 October 2022, an Mw 7.0 earthquake and an Mw 6.4 earthquake struck Abra, northwest of Luzon, Philippines, respectively, with a time interval of less than 3 months and a distance of about 16 km. In this research, interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) was utilized to retrieve the co‐seismic surface deformation field ...

Self‐Consistent Models of Earth's Mantle and Core From Long‐Period Seismic and Tidal Constraints
Abstract Here we illustrate the use of parameterized models to address fundamental questions about Earth's mantle and core structure. For this, we invert a large set of normal‐mode center frequencies and quality (attenuation) factors, along with astronomic‐geodetic data, for the radial anelastic seismic structure of the Earth.

COVID-19 societal response captured by seismic noise in China and Italy
Seismic noise with frequencies above 1 Hz is often called cultural noise and is generally correlated quite well with human activities. Recently, cities in mainland China and Italy imposed lockdown restrictions in response to COVID-19, which gave us an ...

The Seismological Laboratory: Past and Future [PDF]
Moving into new and elaborate quarters is usually a matter of unqualified joy and anticipation. But anyone who has ever visited Caltech's Seismological Laboratory on North San Rafael Avenue will understand the mixed feelings with which the staff ...

Temporal Changes in Europa's Ice Shell Thickness: Insights From Models of Convection
Abstract Europa is characterized by a thin ice Ih shell overlying a subsurface ocean and a large solid core. Estimates of the outer ice shell's thickness range from a few kilometers to several tens of kilometers, with strong implications for Europa's thermal and geological history.

Seismicity Precursors and Their Practical Account
Earthquakes (EQs) are the most unpredictable and damaging natural disasters. Over the last hundred years, the scientific community has been engaged in an intense endeavor to attain a confident and secure method of seismic activity forecasting.

Probabilistic seismic hazard assessment (PSHA) takes into account as much data as possible for defining the initial seismic source zone model. In response to this, an algorithm has been developed for integration of geological, geophysical and seismological data through a spatial index showing the presence or absence of a potential seismic source ...

Abstract A small‐volume 6,000 m3 rockslide struck the Lorgino hamlet of Crevoladossola (NW Italy) just before 23:00 UTC on 26 January 2023, at the boundary of a nearby marble quarry. The rockslide severely damaged the mining infrastructure and halted operations for months, fortunately without causing injuries or casualties.
