Regional variations in the diffusion of triggered seismicity [PDF]
We determine the spatiotemporal characteristics of interearthquake triggering in the International Seismological Centre catalogue on regional and global scales. We pose a null hypothesis of spatially clustered, temporally random seismicity, and determine

Seismicity from february 2006 to september 2007 at the Rwenzori Mountains, East African Rift: earthquake distribution, magnitudes and source mechanisms [PDF]
We have analysed the microseismic activity within the Rwenzori Mountains area in the western branch of the East African Rift. Seismogram recordings from a temporary array of up to 27 stations reveal approximately 800 events per month with local ...

Slab pull, slab weakening, and their relation to deep intra-slab seismicity [PDF]
Subduction zone seismicity is highly variable. Great earthquakes occur at few subduction zones around the world, with significant variation in size and frequency of deep events. Interactions between overriding and subducting plates and slab pull strength

Effect of linguistic framing and information provision on attitudes towards induced seismicity and seismicity regulation [PDF]
Shale gas is an expanding energy source worldwide, yet ‘fracking’ remains controversial. Amongst public concerns is induced seismicity (tremors). The UK had the most stringent induced seismicity regulations in the world, prior to instating a moratorium ...

Seismicity associated with the 1991-1995 dome growth at Unzen Volcano [PDF]
From May 1991 until February 1995, seismicity in the crater area of Unzen Volcano, southwest Japan, intensified in conjunction with the growth of a dacite lava dome. We used data from seismic stations located near the crater to identify approximately 580,

For a long time, reactive seismic retrofitting was focused on monumental heritage and very little on vernacular architecture. In the last years, there has been a growing interest on seismic resistant design and solutions and several research units emerged to produce important research in the scientific field. However, for some time, international focus

Statistical analysis of daily seismic event rate as a precursor to volcanic eruptions [PDF]
We analyse time series of daily seismic event rate for the Kilauea, Hawaii, volcano between 1959 and 2000. Individual eruptions are not always preceded by an increase in event rate, and many increases in event rate do not lead to eruption.
