Evaluating models of Coulomb stress transfer: Is variable fault geometry important?
Abstract To determine the importance of receiver fault geometry in Coulomb stress calculations a new methodology is presented to model faults with variable geometry. Although most models use planar faults, it is known that these are inaccurate representations of faults observed in the field. The central Italian Apennines are chosen as a straightforward

Tectono-stratigraphic revision of the Ait Kandoula Formation (Middle Miocene-Pliocene), western Ouarzazate Basin (Southern Morocco) [PDF]
This paper reports the results of a stratigraphic revision of the Ait Kandoula Formation exposed in the western Ouarzazate Basin (Middle Miocene-Lower Pliocene, Southern Morocco). This formation is part of the upper Eocene-Quaternary continental Imerhane

Abstract The reliable assessment of volcanic unrest must rest on an understanding of the rocks that form the edifice. It is their microstructure that dictates their physical properties and mechanical behavior and thus the response of the edifice to stress perturbations during unrest.

Translocating European ground squirrels Spermophilus citellus has become a popular conservation tool. However, few release techniques have been carefully evaluated. To contribute to an evidence‐based ground squirrel translocation guide for wildlife managers, we evaluated conditions of habitat manipulation (grass height and artificial burrow entrance ...

The use of Google EarthTM satellite imagery to detect the nests of masked boobies Sula dactylatra
Abstract Masked boobies Sula dactylatra, like many other species of Sulidae, do not construct elaborate nests. However, their nest sites produce a characteristic ‘nest signature’. We found that these nest signatures could apparently be seen in freely available satellite images (Google EarthTM) of the main island of Ascension in the south Atlantic.

Implementation and Utilisation of Community-based Mortality Surveillance: a case study from Chad [PDF]
Background Prospective surveillance is a recognised approach for measuring death rates in humanitarian emergencies. However, there is limited evidence on how such surveillance should optimally be implemented and on how data are actually used by agencies.
