Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.Abstract Large earthquakes often elevate seismicity in surrounding regions, as seen on the Xainza‐Dinggyê rift in southern Tibet after the 2015 MW 7.8 Gorkha (Nepal) earthquake. In contrast, the EW‐trending Yarlung Zangbo suture (YZS), located directly north of this event, exhibits seismic quiescence.

Volcanic earthquake swarms at Izu-Oshima in 2023
Earth, Planets and SpaceEarthquake swarms are known to reflect underground fluid movement and stress changes. However, their occurrence patterns and the mechanisms underlying hypocenter migration remain poorly understood.

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.Abstract On 9 November 2025, a Mw 6.8 Sanriku‐Oki earthquake struck a Japan Trench segment with inferred recurrent aseismic slip and Mw ∼7 earthquakes. Using S‐net seafloor data, we examine the preparatory and post‐mainshock evolution of this foreshock–mainshock–aftershock sequence.

Streak and hierarchical structures of the Tohoku–Hokkaido subduction zone plate boundary
Earth, Planets and Space, 2018 Here, we investigated four families of moderate-size (M ~ 4.8) repeating earthquakes and nearby smaller events that occurred in the Naka-Oki, Kushiro-Oki, Urakawa-Oki, and Kamaishi-Oki regions of the Tohoku–Hokkaido subduction zone, Japan, between 2002 ...

Seismicity gaps and the shape of the seismic zone in the Banda Sea region from relocated hypocenters [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2004 We relocate hypocenters for more than 800 earthquakes deeper than 50 km with mb ≳ 5.0, along the Banda arc, using several thousand handpicked direct, depth, and core‐reflected phases, in addition to phases reported by the International Seismological Centre. The seismicity distribution is found to be very nonuniform both along the arc and in depth. Gaps

Geoscience Letters, 2019 On September 28, 2018, the Mw 7.5 earthquake occurred in Palu, Central Sulawesi, Indonesia. This earthquake produced strong tremors, landslides, liquefaction and a tsunami and caused thousands of fatalities and damaged houses and infrastructure.

Stress drop estimates and hypocenter relocations of induced seismicity near Crooked Lake, Alberta
Geophysical Research Letters, 2016 AbstractWe use a sequence of induced earthquakes near Crooked Lake, Alberta, to investigate the physical differences between induced and tectonic earthquakes. Starting with the Natural Resources Canada earthquake catalogue, we use a spectral ratio method to calculate the static stress drops of a group of relocated earthquakes ranging from December 2013

Open Geosciences, 2018 Java Island is part of the island arc influenced by subducting Indo-Australian beneath Eurasian tectonic plates, therefore there is high seismic activity and an active volcanic chain trending East-West. One of the volcanoes in Java Island is Mt.
