Ripplocations provide a new mechanism for the deformation of phyllosilicates in the lithosphere
Phyllosilicate minerals are critical components of seismogenic fault, shear and subduction zones. Here, the authors provide a new deformation mechanism for phyllosilicates, based on newly discovered crystallographic defects in biotite (ripplocations ...

The rupture process of the Hualien M7.3 sequence on April 3, 2024
The Hualien M 7.3 earthquake on April 3, 2024, was a significant and strong earthquake in Taiwan, China in the past two decades. The rupture process of the main shock and strong aftershocks is of great significance to the subsequent seismic activity and ...

ABSTRACT We perform probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) in the Shillong Plateau by clubbing the up‐to‐date earthquake data and seismotectonic properties of the study area. Twenty‐one areal seismic sources are delineated based on the updated earthquake catalog, tectonic, and fault plane solutions.

Seismogenic Structures in Subduction Zones
Abstract Recent studies of high-resolution seismic tomography of source zones of large crustal earthquakes, megathrust earthquakes, and intraslab earthquakes are reviewed, which shed new light on seismogenic structures and fluids in subduction zones.

ZONES OF SEISMOGENIC RUPTURES IN THE BAIKAL RIFT: SPATIAL LOCATION AND SEISMIC POTENTIAL
Seismic hazard assessment remains one of the priorities of tectonically active regions. It is based on the data for sesimogenic ruptures indicating the segments of active surface faults.

Seismologic studies have reported seismic velocities reduction and Vp/Vs ratio changes over damage zones associated with seismogenic faults. The structure and elastic properties of these damage zones indicate the maturity of faults and affect the rupture

Fault‐Controlled Permeability: A Key Parameter in Geothermal Electricity Production Assessment
ABSTRACT Geothermal energy is central to the global green energy transition, but its development has long focused on regions with positive thermal anomalies. Through a semi‐quantitative global‐scale review and spatial analysis of 361 geothermal sites, we show that 56.2% of global geothermal electricity production occurs in regions with thermal ...

With the recent increases in measured ground motion records for large earthquakes, most notably the 2023 M7.8 Pazarcik earthquake in Türkiye, the potential for pervasive high velocity fault rupture propagation over an extensive fault length has been observed.

The structure and composition of exhumed faults, and their implications for seismic processes [PDF]
Field studies of faults exhumed from seismogenic depths provide useful data to constrain seismologic models of fault zone processes and properties. Data collected on the San Andreas Fault in the San Gabriel Mountains has shown that large-displacement ...
