Building damages in Deyang city by the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake

Geodesy and Geodynamics, 2011
The Ms8.0 Wenchuan earthquake in 2008 caused huge casualties, economic losses, and building damages, which are analyzed. The results show that damages of houses designed according to the current seismic code were significantly smaller than those without ...

Advances in 6C seismology: Applications of combined translational and rotational motion measurements in global and exploration seismology

, 2018
Over the past few decades, the potential of collocated measurements of 6C data (3C of translational and 3C of rotational motion) has been demonstrated in global seismology using high-sensitivity, observatory-based ring laser technology.

A study of binary constraints for seismology of delta Scuti stars

, 2008
Seismology of single delta Scuti stars has mainly been inhibited by failing to detect many of the theoretically predicted pulsation modes, resulting in difficulties with mode identification. Theoretical and observational advances have, however, helped to

Reflections on a Made‐Up Career

Perspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 6, Issue 1, December 2025.
Abstract Launched in 1999, Geosciences Professional Services Inc. (Geo Prose) is a small business that supports the advancement of geoscience through assistance with document editing and design. The story of how Geo Prose came to be is one of opportunities taken rather than one of entrepreneurial spirit. It’s a story of how knowing a little bit about a

Ionospheric disturbances around the time of the Ms7.0 Lushan earthquake

Geodesy and Geodynamics, 2013
Variations of Vertical Total Electron Content (VTEC) in the ionosphere are investigated around the time of the Ms7. 0 Lushan earthquake. A time-series analysis shows an anomalous VTEC increase 15 days before as well as some anomalous VTEC decreases 5 ...

Radar Polarimetry in Glaciology: Theory, Measurement Techniques, and Scientific Applications for Investigating the Anisotropy of Ice Masses

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 63, Issue 4, December 2025.
Abstract Dielectric anisotropy in ice alters the propagation of polarized radio waves, so polarimetric radar sounding can be used to survey anisotropic properties of ice masses. Ice anisotropy is either intrinsic, associated with ice‐crystal orientation fabric (COF), or extrinsic, associated with material heterogeneity, such as bubbles, fractures, and ...

Red giant seismology: Observations

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2013
The CoRoT and Kepler missions provide us with thousands of red-giant light curves that allow a very precise asteroseismic study of these objects. Before CoRoT and Kepler, the red-giant oscillation patterns remained obscure.

Ionospheric VTEC anomalies before Ms7.1 Yushu earthquake

Geodesy and Geodynamics, 2011
Vertical total electron content is examined to check whether the Ms7.1 Yushu earthquake on April 14, 2010, may have caused any anomalous ionospheric changes. The result shows two TEC increases over the epicenter vicinity on April 1 and 5; these anomalies

Structural Controls on Splay Fault Rupture Dynamics During Cascadia Megathrust Earthquakes

AGU Advances, Volume 6, Issue 6, December 2025.
Abstract Great subduction earthquakes (Mw ≥ 8.0) can generate devastating tsunamis by rapidly displacing the seafloor and overlying water column. These potentially tsunamigenic seafloor offsets result from coseismic fault slip and deformation beneath or within the accretionary wedge. The mechanics of these shallow rupture phenomena and their dependence

Coronal Loop Seismology Using Standing Kink Oscillations With a Lookup Table

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2019
The transverse structure of coronal loops plays a key role in the physics but the small transverse scales can be difficult to observe directly. For wider loops the density profile may be estimated by forward modelling of the transverse intensity profile.
