Review of transect of Christchurch CBD following 22 February 2011 earthquake

, 2012
Two days after the 22 February 2011 M6.3 earthquake in Christchurch, New Zealand, three of the authors conducted a transect of the central city, with the goal of deriving an estimate of building damage levels.

Parallel dynamics of slow slips and fluid-induced seismic swarms

Nature Communications
Earthquake swarms may be driven by fluids, through hydraulic injections or natural fluid circulation, but also by slow and aseismic slip transients. Understanding the driving factors for these prolific sequences and how they can potentially develop into ...

Spatial Distribution of Housing Investment and Perception of Earthquake Risk in Istanbul Metropolitan Area [PDF]

Istanbul, the largest metropolitan area in Turkey with a population of over 15 million inhabitants, lies close to major and active fault lines and has been previously hit by fatal earthquakes several times.

Comparison of statistical low-frequency earthquake activity models

Earth, Planets and Space
Slow earthquakes are slow fault slip events. Quantifying and monitoring slow earthquake activity characteristics are important, because they may change before large earthquakes occur.

Surface ruptures and building damage of the 2003 Bam, Iran earthquake mapped by satellite synthetic apeerture radar interferometric correlation [PDF]

We use the interferometric correlation from Envisat synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images to map the details of the surface ruptures related to the 26 December 2003 earthquake that devastated Bam, Iran.

SLOW EARTHQUAKES IN CENTRAL ITALY

, 2002
[1] Slow earthquakes and afterslips prove that the Earth does not have just two response time scales, i.e. that of tectonic loading and that of regular earthquakes. A swarm of slow earthquakes, with time constants of the order of hundreds of seconds, has been detected by a laser interferometer below the Gran Sasso massif (Italy).

Third sector organizations and earthquake recovery planning in Christchurch, New Zealand [PDF]

, 2014
On September 4, 2010, an earthquake struck rural Canterbury and the most deadly of over 2,000 aftershocks devastated the Christchurch Central Business District on February 22, 2011 (Ardagh et al. 2012). Questions have arisen regarding population dynamics

Displacement-based earthquake loss assessment for an earthquake scenario in Istanbul

, 2007
DBELA is a Displacement-Based Earthquake Loss Assessment methodology for urban areas which relates the displacement capacity of the building stock to the displacement demand from earthquake scenarios.

Observational Evidence of a Very‐Low‐Frequency Earthquake (Mw 3.8) Leading to an Earthquake (Mw 4.2): Minto Flats Strike‐Slip Fault Zone, Central Alaska

Geophysical Research Letters
The physical conditions governing earthquake initiation are largely unknown, particularly in the minutes to seconds preceding rupture. While there is geodetic and seismic evidence of precursory activity in the hours to weeks prior to large earthquakes ...
