Paleoliquefaction Studies and the Evaluation of Seismic Hazard

Geosciences, 2019
Recent and historical studies of earthquake-induced liquefaction, as well as paleoliquefaction studies, demonstrate the potential usefulness of liquefaction data in the assessment of the earthquake potential of seismic sources. Paleoliquefaction studies,

Influence of crustal lithology and the thermal state on microseismicity in the Wakayama region, southern Honshu, Japan

Earth, Planets and Space, 2021
Here we investigate the influence of the lithology and thermal state of the upper crust on earthquake distributions beneath the Wakayama region, southern Honshu, Japan, to better understand the influence of crustal conditions on regional seismogenesis ...

From Compression to Extension in the Eastern Pyrenees: New Insights From Low‐Temperature Thermochronology

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The tectonic evolution of the Eastern Pyrenees from the orogenic mountain building to the post‐orogenic dismantling is still debated. Since the Oligocene, the Gulf of Lion rifting in the Western Mediterranean superimposed crustal extension in this eastern part of the Pyrenean belt, while compressional tectonics persisted in the Central ...

Atypical Linear Tectonic Block of the Intraplate Deformation Zone in the Central Indian Ocean Basin

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
The Central Indian Ocean Basin (CIOB) is distinguished by unusually high tectonic activity, setting it apart from all other passive oceanic basins. Within the interior of the Indo-Australian lithospheric plate lies a unique area of intraplate deformation.

Forerunning Activity for Large Earthquake Which Succeeds Disastrous Intraplate Earthquake.

Journal of Geography (Chigaku Zasshi), 1995
For the six among seven disastrous earthquakes with M7 or larger, which occurred in the Japanese islands since 1926, large earthquakes with M 6.3-6.7 succeeded at the distance of several tens km from the epicenters of the disastrous earthquakes, and moderate forerunning earthquakes with M4.5-5.5 were observed for all of the succeeding large earthquakes

Magnetotelluric Imaging of a Magma Plumbing System From the Asthenosphere to Crust Beneath the Newer Volcanic Province, Australia

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 24, 28 December 2025.
Abstract The Newer Volcanic Province (NVP) in southeastern Australia is a classic example of continental intraplate volcanism located far from a plate boundary, yet the configuration of its magma plumbing system remains unclear. Using three‐dimensional (3D) magnetotelluric (MT) inversion, we imaged a vertically continuous, trans‐lithospheric conductive

A New Paradigm for Large Earthquakes in Stable Continental Plate Interiors [PDF]

, 2016
Large earthquakes within stable continental regions (SCR) show that significant amounts of elastic strain can be released on geological structures far from plate boundary faults, where the vast majority of the Earth's seismic activity takes place.

Humps in κ‐T Curves: Evidence for the Stable Single‐Domain to Superparamagnetic Transition in Magnetite

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 24, 28 December 2025.
Abstract Thermomagnetic susceptibility (κ‐T) curves are used widely for magneto‐mineralogical analysis. Humps in heating curves below the Curie temperature of magnetite are observed frequently. We present κ‐T curves with hump features in magnetite‐bearing flood basalt samples.

Multi-fault segment complexity and multi-rupture episodes during the 2024 Mw 7.5 Noto Peninsula earthquake

Earth, Planets and Space
Major intraplate earthquakes pose a substantial threat to nearby inhabited regions, but their rupture characteristics are often unclear due to limited observations.
