Abstract Precise position and geometry of the subducted slab are crucial for deciphering subduction zone volcanism. This is particularly important in the southern Costa Rican subduction zone, where the Cocos Ridge subducted at ∼2–3 Ma, coincident with the uplift of the Talamanca Range but later than the arc volcanism cessation (∼5–8 Ma). Here, we apply

Nostradamus: The radar that wanted to be a seismometer [PDF]
Surface waves emitted after large earthquakes are known to induce, by dynamic coupling, atmospheric infrasonic waves propagating upward through the neutral and ionized atmosphere. Those waves have been detected in the past at ionospheric heights using a variety of techniques, such as HF Doppler sounding or GPS receivers.

Abstract Distributed acoustic sensing (DAS), which transforms a fiber optic cable into an array of high frequency strainmeters, has the potential to help us characterize earthquakes with a dense sampling of measurements. While earthquake focal mechanisms are frequently determined using P‐wave polarities and S/P amplitude ratios with inertial ...

A fiber-optic interferometric seismometer
A fiber-optic interferometric sensor has been developed which consists of a seismic mass of 520 gm supported by two rubber mandrels, each wound with a single layer of single-mode optical fiber 6.5 m long. One end of each fiber is cleaved to enhance reflection.

Abstract We use distributed acoustic sensing along a submarine fiber‐optic cable to provide the first high‐resolution two‐dimensional shear‐wave velocity (Vs) model of the North Anatolian Fault (NAF) in the Marmara Sea. Using 7 days of ambient noise recordings, we extract Scholte wave dispersion curves via slant‐stacking and invert for the Vs structure,

This paper discusses the advantages of seismometers that record displacement over instruments that measure velocity or acceleration. It shows that a portable seismometer using changes in capacitance between condenser‐plates to produce proportionate changes of current in an oscillograph has many good characteristics, chief of which are the ease and ...

Seismic Signals Monitor Debris‐Flow Erosion and Channel Elevation
Abstract Channel erosion not only amplifies debris‐flow magnitude and impact but also reshapes local geomorphology. However, the destructive and infrequent nature of debris flows makes in situ monitoring of channel‐bed erosion processes and flow characteristics challenging.

Mapping Geothermal Fluids Using Seismic Absorption and Scattering: A Case Study From Aluto Volcano
Abstract Seismic attenuation tomography is used to map fluids and fractures beneath the Aluto volcano geothermal field of the Main Ethiopian Rift. We present 3D models of peak delay (Δlog10Tpd ${\Delta }{\log }_{10}\left({T}_{pd}\right)$) and inverse coda quality factor (Qc−1 ${Q}_{c}^{-1}$) which are proxies for seismic scattering and absorption. High
