InSAR coseismic deformation and seismogenic structure of the 2023 MW6.9 Tajikistan earthquake

open access: yesGeodesy and Geodynamics
An earthquake of magnitude 6.9 occurred in Tajikistan on February 23, 2023. Studying this earthquake is the key to understanding the seismogenic structure of this area. The slip distribution of the MW6.9 earthquake was inverted using InSAR technology and

Structural control and system-level behavior of the seismic cycle at the Nankai Trough

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2020
The Nankai Trough in Southwest Japan exhibits a wide spectrum of fault slip, with long-term and short-term slow-slip events, slow and fast earthquakes, all associated with different segments down the plate interface.

Silica precipitation potentially controls earthquake recurrence in seismogenic zones [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
AbstractSilica precipitation is assumed to play a significant role in post-earthquake recovery of the mechanical and hydrological properties of seismogenic zones. However, the relationship between the widespread quartz veins around seismogenic zones and earthquake recurrence is poorly understood.

Holocene Slip Behavior and Shallow Structure of the Milun Fault at the Collision–Subduction Transition, Eastern Taiwan

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
The Milun Fault forms the northernmost onshore segment of the Longitudinal Valley fault system, a plate‐boundary suture between the Eurasian and Philippine Sea plates in eastern Taiwan, and poses a significant seismic hazard to Hualien City. Despite destructive earthquakes in 1951 and 2018, the shallow structure, long‐term slip behavior, and ...

Recent Seismic Activity of the Lezha-Ulqini Seismogenic Zone and its Associated Hazard [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The results of the analysis, based on the parameters of events and some features of seismicity that have occurred in the Lezha-Ulqini seismogenic zone during period of time 2001-2012, are presented in this paper.

Fluid‐Driven Cohesive Strengthening: Critical Role of Reaction Kinetics as the Determinant for Frictional Stability

open access: yesAGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Following an earthquake, faults lock and regain strength via a combination of healing mechanisms that include pressure solution, contact growth, and cementation. Fault healing dictates strength recovery during the seismic cycle and is therefore a key factor controlling earthquake recurrence intervals, stress drop, and other source properties ...

Metamorphic Dehydration, Fluid Pressure, and the Frictional‐Viscous Transition Along Subduction Megathrusts: Case Study in Cascadia and Implications for Slow Earthquakes

open access: yesAGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Relative plate motion in subduction zones transitions from frictional slip to viscous flow with increasing depth and temperature. The frictional‐viscous transition can control the depth extent of megathrust earthquakes and episodic tremor and slip (ETS).

Along-strike variability in the seismogenic zone below Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica

open access: yes, 2002
OVSICORIAt the subduction zone in northwestern Costa Rica, the seismogenic zone lies directly beneath the Nicoya Peninsula, allowing for near source seismic studies of earthquake activity.

Aerial and Space‐Borne Seismology on Venus: Viability and Design Implications for Future Missions

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Venus' evolution remains a mystery because of the lack of in situ geophysical data to constrain its interior structure. Recently‐selected planetary missions VERITAS (NASA), DAVINCI+ (NASA), and EnVision (ESA) will investigate the planet's interior, surface, and atmospheric chemistry.
