Sumatra Seismogenic Zone - The role of input materials in shallow seismogenic slip and forearc plateau development [PDF]
, 2017 Drilling the input materials of the north Sumatran subduction zone, part of the 5000 km long Sunda subduction zone system and the origin of the Mw ~9.2 earthquake and tsunami that devastated coastal communities around the Indian Ocean in 2004, was ...

Probabilistic seismic hazard maps for the sultanate of Oman [PDF]
, 2016 This study presents the results of the first probabilistic seismic hazard assessment (PSHA) in the framework of logic tree for Oman. The earthquake catalogue was homogenized, declustered, and used to define seismotectonic source model that characterizes ...

Reconstructing the total shortening history of the NW Himalaya. [PDF]
, 2003 The onset of India-Asia contact can be dated with both biostratigraphic analysis of syn-collisional sedimentary successions deposited on each side of the Indus Suture zone, and by radiometric dating of Indian crustal rocks which have undergone subduction

Episodes, 2009 The most commonly used marker for gas-hydrates is a bottom simulating reflector or BSR on seismic section. The BSR is not a lithological interface but a physical boundary between the gas-hydrates bearing sediments above and free-gas saturated sediments below.

Tsunamigenic potential due to frontal rupturing in the Sumatra locked zone [PDF]
, 2015 International audienceThe Sumatra subduction zone is one of the most seismically active subduction zones. Although there have been three Mw ≥ 8.4 earthquakes in the region, including the disastrous 2004 Mw=9.2 Sumatra-Andaman earthquake, a 500 km long ...

A New Tsunami Hazard Assessment for Eastern Makran Subduction Zone by Considering Splay Faults and Applying Stochastic Modeling [PDF]
, 2022 Tsunami hazard imposed by possible rupture of splay faults is important as it may significantly intensify tsunami heights locally. The Makran Subduction Zone (MSZ) in the northwestern Indian Ocean can generate large thrust earthquakes that could trigger ...
