Spatiotemporal characteristics and earthquake statistics of the 2020 and 2022 adjacent earthquake sequences in North Aegean Sea (Greece)

open access: yesSeismica
The two moderate earthquakes that occurred close and to the north of the North Aegean Trough (NAT) on 26 September 2020 (Mw5.3) and 16 January 2022 (Mw5.4), both followed by aftershock activity, are examined.

Subducting Slab Thermo‐Petrologic Structure and Intermediate‐Depth Supra‐Slab Earthquakes Beneath Southern Colombia

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.
Abstract We develop 2‐D thermo‐petrologic models for two transects through southern Colombia and compare the model‐predicted temperature distributions and depths of slab dehydration with seismological observations. Along the northern transect, earthquakes occur above the relatively young subducting Nazca slab at 80–160‐km depths.

Smart Speed Imaging in Digital Image Correlation: Application to Seismotectonic Scale Modeling

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2019
Analog models of earthquakes and seismic cycles are characterized by strong variations in strain rate: from slow interseismic loading to fast coseismic release of elastic energy.

Dynamic Coupling Between Faulting, Rifting and Magmatism During 2021‐2025 Unrest on Reykjanes Peninsula, Iceland

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.
Abstract Interactions among faulting, earthquakes, and eruptions are fundamental to plate tectonics and hazard forecasting yet rarely observed along mid‐ocean ridges. On Iceland's Reykjanes Peninsula, seismotectonic–volcanic unrest resumed after nearly 800‐year hiatus, providing an opportunity to observe these interactions during 2021–2025 activity. By

The Al Hoceima earthquake of May 26, 1994 and its aftershocks: a seismotectonic study

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 1998
The present paper focuses on the moderate earthquake that occurred on May, 26, 1994, at 8 h 27 min, which caused great damage and two deaths. The epicentre of the main shock was located at 35.280N, 3.990W. The focal depth was 13 km, and the magnitude (Md)

Crustal Responses to the Destruction of Continental Lithosphere: Insights From Radial Anisotropy of the Tanlu Fault Zone, Eastern China

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract Since the Mesozoic, much of the eastern China lithosphere was removed through thermo‐mechanical erosion and delamination, yet the effects on the overlying crust remain unclear. The Tanlu Fault Zone (TLFZ), the region's largest lithosphere‐scale weakness, offers a natural laboratory to assess crustal responses to lithospheric destruction.

Inference of a seismic gap from geological data: Thessaly ( Central Greece) as a case study

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 1995
As a result of neotectonic, morphotectonic and seismotectonic research it is now possible to draw detailed maps of the major active faults affecting Thessaly, a large region of continental Greece.

Ground‐Motion Characterization for the 2025 U.S. National Seismic Hazard Model for Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
We develop the ground‐motion characterization (GMC) for the 2025 U.S. National Seismic Hazard Model for Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands (NSHM‐PRVI) for earthquakes in active crustal, subduction interface, and subduction intraslab regimes. Using ground‐motion models (GMMs) from the Next‐Generation Attenuation (NGA)‐West2 and NGA‐Subduction ...
