Distribution of Interseismic Coupling Along the Maidan Fault in Tianshan Before the 2024 Mw 7.0 Wushi Earthquake

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 51, Issue 24, 28 December 2024.
Abstract Despite historically low seismic activity on the Maidan Fault (MDF), the sudden Mw 7.0 Wushi earthquake in early 2024 underscores the urgent need to assess the seismic risk on this fault. This study utilizes Global Navigation Satellite System and Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar data to image the spatial distribution of interseismic ...

Determination of stress state based on coupling characteristics of load/unload response ratio and outgoing longwave radiation before large earthquakes

Frontiers in Earth Science
The Load/Unload Response Ratio (LURR) is a seismic prediction method based on the dynamic evolution of the stress-strain relationship of rocks. By adopting Benioff strain as the response indicator, an in-depth analysis was conducted on the LURR anomalies

Seismic images of the megathrust rupture during the 25th October 2010 Pagai earthquake, SW Sumatra: Frontal rupture and large tsunami [PDF]

The Mentawai segment of the Sumatra subduction zone is locked and likely to produce a large earthquake in the near future. A part of this locked zone ruptured on 12 September 2007 producing twin earthquakes of Mw = 8.5 and 7.9.

Evaluating the Economic Response to Japan's Earthquake [PDF]

This paper compares the 1995 Kobe earthquake with the more recent one in Tohoku. The impact of the recent earthquake on industrial production was much larger and long-lasting than that of the 1995 earthquake.

The 2010 MW 6.8 Yushu (Qinghai, China) earthquake: constraints provided by InSAR and body wave seismology [PDF]

, 2011
By combining observations from satellite radar, body wave seismology and optical imagery, we have determined the fault segmentation and sequence of ruptures for the 2010 Mw 6.8 Yushu (China) earthquake. We have mapped the fault trace using displacements

Simulation of 2009, Mw=4 Tehran earthquake using a hybrid method of modal summation and finite difference

, 2012
The Greater Tehran area is the most important city of Iran and hosts about 20% of the country population. Despite the presence of major faults and the occurrence of historical earthquakes, nowadays the seismicity is relatively quite low and this enhances
