Dating a Medieval Tsunami With Uranium‐Series Techniques on Caribbean Corals

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 19, 16 October 2025.
Abstract Uranium‐series dates from coral boulders constrain the timing of a medieval tsunami from the Puerto Rico Trench. Previously reported evidence for this tsunami includes hundreds of coral boulders that came to rest hundreds of meters inland on Anegada, British Virgin Islands.

Seismic Activity in the Celje Basin (Slovenia) in Roman Times—Archaeoseismological Evidence from Celeia

Quaternary, 2023
Searching for unknown earthquakes in Slovenia in the first millennium, we performed archaeoseismological analysis of Roman settlements. The Mesto pod mestom museum in Celje exhibits a paved Roman road, which suffered severe deformation.

First AUV and ROV investigation of seismogenic faults in the Alboran Sea (Western Meditarranean) [PDF]

, 2016
In May-June 2015 we carried out the SHAKE cruise on board the RV “Sarmiento de Gamboa” the first in situ investigation using state-of-the-art underwater vehicles, the AUVs “AsterX” and “IdefX” (IFREMER, France) and the ROV “Max Rover” (HCMR, Greece ...

The 2019 Le Teil surface-rupturing earthquake along the La Rouvière Fault within the Cévennes fault system (France): What does paleoseismology reveal?

E3S Web of Conferences, 2022
The 2019-11-1, Mw4.9 Le Teil earthquake occurred within the NE termination of the Cévennes faults system (CFS) in southern France, along the La Rouvière fault (LRF), an Oligocene normal fault which was not known to be potentially active.

Differentiating Frictionally Locked Asperities From Kinematically Coupled Zones

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Seismogenic areas on plate‐boundary faults resist slipping until earthquakes begin. The delay in slip relative to plate motion, termed slip deficit, represents plate coupling as an interseismic proxy of seismic potential. However, when a part of a frictional interface sticks together (locked), the unlocked sliding surroundings are braked and ...

Towards new research strategies: silent seismogenic areas or silent sources?

Annals of Geophysics, 2000
Some earthquakes, particularly the strongest ones, can re-occur within hundreds or thousands of years. Therefore, the areas whose "seismic history" seems to be totally lacking in information are indeed a problem.

Influence of Subduction Interface Geometry on Surface Displacements and Slip Processes in Cascadia

Earth and Space Science, Volume 12, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract The subduction interface geometry is particularly important for estimating interplate coupling and surface geodetic motion, which has significant implications for seismic hazard mapping. Several published Cascadia subduction interface geometries derived from different seismic data sets vary significantly from one another. However, results from

Geomorphology and Paleoseismology of the Weinan Fault, Shaanxi, Central China, and the Source of the 1556 Huaxian Earthquake

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2020
The 1556 CE Huaxian earthquake resulted in an estimated 830,000 deaths and caused widespread devastation in the Weihe Basin, China. Seismic intensities from historical accounts yield, via magnitude‐intensity relations, a commonly quoted magnitude of 8¼ ...

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

Journal 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 ...
