Deformation and mechanical strength of sediments at the Nankai subduction zone : implications for prism evolution and decollement initiation and propagation

open access: yes, 2007
As in many depositional settings, marine sediments at convergent margins undergo diagenetic changes before, during, and after mechanical consolidation and deformation. These changes influence mechanical behavior within and beneath the prism and along the

SEISMOGENIC ZONE OF CAPE SHARTLAY (LAKE BAIKAL): SPECIFIC FEATURES OF STRUCTURE, DISPLACEMENTS AND RUPTURE GROWTH

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика
Seismogenic deformations of Cape Shartlay represent a very young fault system on the northwestern coast of Lake Baikal. Their study is providing an important opportunity to measure earthquake magnitudes, to identify areas where earthquakes are more ...

Exploring the Historical Earthquakes Preceding the Giant 1960 Chile Earthquake in a Time-Dependent Seismogenic Zone

open access: yes, 2017
New documentary findings and available paleoseismological evidence provide both new insights into the historical seismic sequence that ended with the giant 1960 south‐central Chile earthquake and relevant information about the region’s seismogenic zone ...

Background Seismicity Highlights Tectonic Asperities

open access: yesGeosciences
The heterogeneity of a tectonic fault interface controls both the spatial features of seismicity and the locations of the foci of shallow earthquakes. Strong earthquakes are associated with ruptures of asperities.

Seismic structure of the Lesser Antilles subduction zone : relevance for the extent of the seismogenic zone

open access: yes, 2011
The Lesser Antilles is a case study of a very slow subduction (~2 cm/yr) of an old oceanic lithosphere (~84-100 Ma). The region presents a relatively low seismic activity, especially along the interplate contact, and the seismic hazard associated with a ...

USE OF SPECTRAL THEORY OF MATRICES TO STUDY SEISMIC MOVEMENTS [PDF]

open access: yes
To the worldwide efforts made for understand the dynamics of seismic movements, a significant contribution was made by the research group of Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Such a contribution was given in 1983 by L. R. Lines and S.

SEISMOGENIC LAYER OF THE CRUST IN THE INNER ZONE OF SOUTHWEST JAPAN

open access: yes, 1995
Hypocenters of earthquakes determined from the data recorded by Kamitakara, Hokuriku, Abuyama and Tottori Observatories, Kyoto University during 1976-1991 are collected to define the distribution of the thickness of the seismogenic layer of the crust in ...

Three-dimensional High-resolution Crustal Structural Imaging and Tectonic Characteristics Study of Longmenshan Fault Zone

open access: yesCT Lilun yu yingyong yanjiu
Seismic arrival time data from broadband arrays deployed along the Longmenshan fault zone were used to invert three-dimensional fine structure models of VP, VS, and VP/VS at depths less than 24 km and earthquake relocation in the Longmenshan fault zone ...
