Seismic Hazard Analysis and Developping the Acceleration Zoning Maps in the Khark Island, Persian Gulf Iran [PDF]

open access: yesمخاطرات محیط طبیعی, 2015
Khark Island is located in the southern margin of the Zagros folded belt in the northeast of the Arabian plate. This study is focused on active geological characteristics of the area understudy, where there is defined 11 seismogenic zones. The seismicity

Testing the Utilization of a Seismic Network Outside the Main Mining Facility Area for Expanding the Microseismic Monitoring Coverage in a Deep Block Caving

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
In the case of mining in an inclined intrusion using the block caving method, the highest stress is usually concentrated in the seismogenic and abutment zones, especially in the front of the sloping area.

Recognition of earthquake-prone nodes, a case study for North Vietnam (M ⩾ 5.0)

open access: yesGeodesy and Geodynamics, 2012
Morphostructural nodes in North Vietnam are delineated with the morphostructural zoning (MZ) method, and classified into seismogenic and non-seismogenic nodes.

Joint inversion of Rayleigh group and phase velocities for S-wave velocity structure of the 2021 MS6.0 Luxian earthquake source area, ChinaKey points

open access: yesEarthquake Science, 2023
On September 16, 2021, a MS6.0 earthquake struck Luxian County, one of the shale gas blocks in the Southeastern Sichuan Basin, China. To understand the seismogenic environment and its mechanism, we inverted a fine three-dimensional S-wave velocity model ...

Spatial changes in inclusion band spacing as an indicator of temporal changes in slow slip and tremor recurrence intervals

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2021
Slow slip and tremor (SST) downdip of the seismogenic zones may trigger megathrust earthquakes by frequently transferring stress to seismogenic zones.

Major California faults are smooth across multiple scales at seismogenic depth

open access: yesSeismica, 2023
Surface traces of earthquake faults are complex and segmented on multiple scales. At seismogenic depth the detailed geometry of faults and earthquake rupture is mainly constrained by earthquake locations.

Dynamics of Earthquake Faulting in Subduction Zones: Inference from Pseudotachylytes and Ultracataclasites in an Ancient Accretionary Complex [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Drilling, 2007
The fault rocks in ancient accretionary complexes exhumed from seismogenic depths may provide an invaluable opportunity to examine the mechanisms and mechanics of seismic slip in subduction thrusts and splay faults. In order to understand the dynamics of

Studying the seismogenic coupling zone with a passive seismic array [PDF]

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2005
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

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020
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 ...
