Modeling the Probability of Tsunami Fire Ignition Based on Data From the 2011 Tohoku and 2024 Noto Peninsula Earthquakes, With Recommendations to Reduce Emerging Fire Risk in Tsunami Vertical Evacuation Structures

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 5, Page 1116-1133, 25 April 2026.
ABSTRACT Recent tsunamigenic earthquakes in Japan have highlighted the emerging fire hazard triggered by tsunami inundation and its impact on tsunami vertical evacuation (TVE) structures. This new type of fire following earthquake, referred to as “tsunami fires,” may be a potential universal hazard that tsunami‐prone countries face; however, it has not

Time‐ and State‐Dependent Damage Accumulation Due to Aftershocks Under an M9.0 Megathrust Earthquake in the Cascadia Subduction Zone

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 5, Page 1157-1175, 25 April 2026.
ABSTRACT This study develops a comprehensive framework for assessing time and state‐dependent aftershock damage accumulation under an M9.0 megathrust interface earthquake in the Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ). The framework integrates aftershock probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (APSHA) and state‐dependent fragility analysis (SDFA) within a ...

Deep Quake Dynamics: A Multimodal Fault‐Aware Approach to Earthquake Magnitude and Occurrence Time Forecasting

Geoscience Data Journal, Volume 13, Issue 2, April 2026.
EQMT integrates earthquake catalog data, fault‐network geometry, engineered features, and graph embeddings in a unified framework for forecasting earthquake magnitude and occurrence time. The framework is designed to reflect inter‐fault spatial dependencies together with temporal seismic patterns, addressing limitations of approaches based only on ...

Entwined economies of violence: understanding borderland conflict and resource politics in northern Kenya

Disasters, Volume 50, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract This article explores longstanding conflict between Turkana and Pokot pastoralist communities in northern Kenya, close to the country's border with Uganda. Conflict in this region has consistently defied interventions by both governments and development organisations.

Integrated seismic damage scenario and resilience assessment using multimodal data and support vector machine, a case study of Jiangyou City, Southwestern China

Geomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk
Seismic damage scenario and resilience assessment are essential for disaster prevention and urban planning, but traditional in-situ fieldwork is resource-intensive and costly at large scales. This study introduces an integrated geospatial framework using

Monitoring Near‐Surface Changes Using Anthropogenic Seismic Vibrations

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract The abundance of anthropogenic seismic noise provides a valuable resource for monitoring dynamic subsurface property changes. We utilize railway and wind turbine‐induced vibrations recorded by a geophone array to estimate surface wave attenuation and velocity in the underlying glacial deposits of Illinois.
