At 02:04 on May 22, 2021, an MS 7.4 earthquake occurred in Madoi County in Qinghai Province, China. This earthquake is the largest seismic event in China since the 2008 MS 8.0 Wenchuan earthquake.

Studying the seismogenic coupling zone with a passive seismic array [PDF]
Subduction zones generate the world's largest and most destructive earthquakes and most of the world's destructive tsunamis, as has been recently shown by the devastating Andaman‐Sumatra event on 26 December 2004. Understanding the factors leading to Earth's largest and most destructive earthquakes is not only an “obviously important” goal, as stated ...

Bidirectional Loading of the Subduction Interface: Evidence From the Kinematics of Slow Slip Events
Subduction zones host some of Earth's most damaging natural hazards, including megathrust earthquakes and earthquake‐induced tsunamis. A major control on the initiation and rupture characteristics of subduction megathrust earthquakes is how the coupled ...

Structural complexity is common at the terminations of earthquake surface ruptures; similar deformation may therefore be expected at the end zones of earthquake ruptures at depth.

Detailed shallow structure of the seismogenic fault of the 1976 Ms7.8 Tangshan earthquake, China
In 1976, an Ms7.8 strong earthquake occurred in the Tangshan region of Northeast China within an ancient craton. In this study, we conducted shallow seismic exploration, drilling-based exploration, and exploratory trench excavation of ground fissures in ...

Estimation of Minimum Principal Stress from an Extended Leak-off Test Onboard the Chikyu Drilling Vessel and Suggestions for Future Test Procedures [PDF]
To understand the physics of faulting and rupture propagation for the great M8-class Nankai earthquakes that recur approximately every 100 years, a comprehensive drilling project is underway: the Nankai Trough Seismogenic Zone Experiment (NanTroSEIZE ...
