A 43,000‐Year‐Long Paleoseismic Record Along the Southern Section of the Lijiang‐Xiaojinhe Fault, Southeastern Tibetan Plateau, China

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Paleoseismic data on the timing of ground‐rupturing earthquakes can help identify the sources of historical earthquakes and define the extent of seismic rupture gaps. The Lijiang‐Xiaojinhe fault (LXF) is a left‐lateral strike‐slip fault that stretches 380 km along the southeastern margin of the Tibet Plateau, passing through the densely ...

Data‐driven distributionally robust optimization of railway alignments in earthquake‐prone regions considering active fault zone risks

open access: yesComputer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 25, Page 4321-4341, 20 October 2025.
Abstract Railway alignment design in earthquake‐prone regions faces many challenges, among which an active fault zone threat is a dominant factor. However, slight attention has been devoted in this field to the complex fault zone risks affecting alignment optimization (AO). To this end, the first‐known AO model that estimates active fault zone risks is

Influence of Fluids and Geological Setting on Source Parameters of the 2010–2014 Pollino (Italy) Seismic Swarm

open access: yesTerra Nova, Volume 37, Issue 5, Page 324-341, October 2025.
ABSTRACT We analyse variations in Brune stress drop (Δσ), apparent stress (τa) and Savage–Wood radiation efficiency (ηsw = τa/Δσ) during the 2010–2014 Pollino seismic swarm (Southern Apennines, Italy). This prolonged sequence included multiple swarms, with a Mw 5.2 event in October 2012, preceded by a Mw 4.3 event in May 2012, followed by aseismic slip.

Deep-water turbidites as Holocene earthquake proxies: the Cascadia subduction zone and Northern San Andreas Fault systems

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 2003
New stratigraphic evidence from the Cascadia margin demonstrates that 13 earthquakes ruptured the margin from Vancouver Island to at least the California border following the catastrophic eruption of Mount Mazama.

Contribution of subaqueous paleoseismology to paleoseismic datasets: Examples from the Euro-Mediterranean Region

open access: yes, 2014
Besides on-fault paleoseismic trenching techniques, subaqueous paleoseismology have been getting popular in the recent years to contribute paleoseismic data sets.

On a flawed conclusion that the 1255 A.D. earthquake ruptured 800 km of the Himalayan Frontal Thrust east of Kathmandu

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2016
A reexamination of the observations and analysis recently reported to conclude that an 800 km section of the Himalayan Frontal Thrust ruptured in 1255 A.D. shows that the conclusion is flawed and without merit because of misinterpretations of trench logs
