Interpreting intraplate tectonics for seismic hazard: a UK historical perspective [PDF]

Journal of Seismology, 2012
It is notoriously difficult to construct seismic source models for probabilistic seismic hazard assessment in intraplate areas on the basis of geological information, and many practitioners have given up the task in favour of purely seismicity-based models.

Use of Macroseismic Intensity Data to Validate a Regionally Adjustable Ground Motion Prediction Model

Geosciences, 2019
In low-to-moderate seismicity (intraplate) regions where locally recorded strong motion data are too scare for conventional regression analysis, stochastic simulations based on seismological modelling have often been used to predict ground motions of ...

Exploring Intraplate Seismicity in the Midwest [PDF]

Intraplate seismicity represents a notable occurrence within the stable North American Craton. This research explores the potential sources of stresses that could reactivate older faults and influence seismic activity within this region.

Modelling of earthquake swarms suggests magmatic fluids in the upper crust beneath the Eger Rift

Communications Earth & Environment
Earthquake swarms are enigmatic seismic phenomena that occur across diverse tectonic settings, from volcanic to intraplate regions, and are often associated with fluid migration, magmatic activity, or stress redistribution. The Northwest Bohemia/Vogtland

Density and strength variations in the mantle lithosphere affect the distribution of intraplate earthquakes

Communications Earth & Environment
The distribution of earthquakes in stable intracontinental tectonic settings is typically far more diffuse than along plate boundaries and the causative mechanisms underlying some recognizable clustering are not understood.

Lower St. Lawrence Seaway Amphibious Seismic Network for earthquakes and marine soundscape monitoring

Seismica
The Lower St. Lawrence Seaway (LSLS) is located within one of the most active seismic zones in eastern Canada. It is also home to a range of marine mammals in an environment of intensive fishing and cargo shipping.

Gravitational body forces focus North American intraplate earthquakes

, 2017
Earthquakes far from tectonic plate boundaries generally exploit ancient faults, but not all intraplate faults are equally active. The North American Great Plains exemplify such intraplate earthquake localization, with both natural and induced seismicity

Local earthquakes Recorded at Syowa Station, Antarctica

Antarctic Record, 1997
The Japanese Antarctic Station Syowa (69°S, 39°E) is located at the edge of the East Antarctic Shield area. Seismic observations at Syowa Station were started in 1959.
