Testing the forecasting skills of aftershock models using a Bayesian framework

open access: yesFrontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2023
The Epidemic Type Aftershock Sequence (ETAS) model and the modified Omori law (MOL) are two aftershock rate models that are used for operational earthquake/aftershock forecasting.

Investigation of the Factors Controlling the Duration and Productivity of Aftershocks Following Strong Earthquakes in Greece

open access: yesGeosciences, 2022
Strong crustal earthquakes in Greece are typically followed by aftershocks, the properties of which are important factors in seismic hazard assessment.

Whose decision is it anyway? Defendants’ prior experience shapes prosecutorial case dismissal

open access: yesCriminology, EarlyView.
Abstract Studies of early case processing outcomes in the United States typically assume that decisions are made unilaterally by the prosecutor, such that prior contact with the legal system is universally associated with harsher outcomes for defendants.

A rate-state model for aftershocks triggered by dislocation on a rectangular fault: a review and new insights

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 2006
We compute the static displacement, stress, strain and the Coulomb failure stress produced in an elastic medium by a finite size rectangular fault after its dislocation with uniform stress drop but a non uniform dislocation on the source.

“I Wish I Had Better Answers”: Organizational Ignorance in US Criminal Courts

open access: yesSociological Forum, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Systems of monetary sanctions in US criminal courts present an opportunity for furthering the sociological understanding of complex and consequential organizations. We examine whether and how court actors across eight states understand the organizational processes supporting the fiscal logic of legal financial obligations (LFOs).

Some characteristics of foreshocks and aftershocks of the 2022 ML6.8 Chihshang, Taiwan, earthquake sequence

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
Foreshocks and aftershocks occurred before and after the ML6.8 (Mw7.0) earthquake in eastern Taiwan on 18 September 2022. We explore the epicentral distribution and temporal variations for the mainshock, foreshocks, and aftershocks.

Avalanches in Compressed Sandstone: Crackling Noise under Confinement

open access: yesCrystals, 2019
The acoustic emission, AE, from avalanches of local cracks and microstructural changes of sandstone under confined compression have been reported. These avalanches soften the underlying minerals and play a key role as indicators for the prediction of geo-

Earthquake Rate Variability in the Auckland Volcanic Field Within a Long‐Duration Self‐Consistent Earthquake Catalogue

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
Eruptions in the Auckland Volcanic Field in Aotearoa New Zealand have not occurred since seismic monitoring began in Aotearoa New Zealand, but it is generally presumed that future eruptions from the Auckland Volcanic Field will be preceded by elevated rates of seismicity.

Stress Field and Megathrust Strength in the Western Hellenic Subduction System: Insights From the 2024 Mw 5.9 Strofades Earthquake Sequence, Greece

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract A M5.9 earthquake occurred on 29 March 2024, offshore near the Strofades Islands, in the western Hellenic Subduction System. Here we present high‐precision earthquake locations and focal mechanisms that suggest the rupture of a NNE‐SSW striking, left‐lateral strike‐slip fault.
