The 2016 Ecuador M 7.8 earthquake ruptured the subduction zone boundary between the Nazca plate and the South America plate. This M 7.8 earthquake may have promoted failure in the surrounding crust, where six M ≥ 6 aftershocks occurred following this ...

Remote triggering of high magnitude earthquakes along plate boundaries
It has been shown that large magnitude earthquakes can remotely trigger other large magnitude earthquakes within three days. Such triggering of high magnitude earthquakes is potentially indicative of fault systems at the end of their seismic cycles. Here

Multiple fault slip triggered above the 2016 Mw 6.4 MeiNong earthquake in Taiwan
Rapid shortening in convergent mountain belts is often accommodated by slip on faults at multiple levels in upper crust, but no geodetic observation of slip at multiple levels within hours of a moderate earthquake has been shown before.

为了探究九江—瑞昌地区内的地震活动是否存在动态应力触发关系,本文选用多层黏弹性介质模型,计算了2005年九江—瑞昌MS5.7地震和2011年瑞昌—阳新MS4.6地震产生的动态库仑破裂应力变化。结果显示:九江—瑞昌MS5.7地震产生的动态库仑破裂应力变化,能触发其北东方向的53次地震;瑞昌—阳新MS4.6地震发生后15天内,小震活动增强区及九江—瑞昌MS5.7地震震源区的多次地震活动,可能与其动态应力触发作用有关。

We propose a normal-stress-dependent Nagata law. Nagata et al. (J Geophys Res 117:B02314, 2012) revised the rate- and state-dependent friction law by introducing the shear stress dependence.

Coseismic Stress Change and Viscoelastic Relaxation after the 2008 Great Sichuan Earthquake
Long-term stress accumulation influenced by coseismic stress changes and postseismic viscoelastic relaxation is considered critical to triggering giant earthquakes. Nevertheless, how the stress increase is interrupted by aftershocks and how it influences

Physiological responses to water stress and stress memory in Argania spinosa [PDF]
Drought stress is one of the major abiotic stress factors shifting the physiology and metabolism of the plants. In semiarid areas, drought stress events are often recurrent, and plants have developed strategies to remember a first so-called priming ...

Connection of large earthquakes occurring moment with the movement of the Sun and the Moon and with the Earth crust tectonic stress character [PDF]
It is acceptable that earthquakes certain exogenous (cosmic) triggering factors may exist in every seismoactive (s/a) region and in Caucasus among them. They have to correct earthquake occurring moment or play the triggering role in case when the region ...

The absence of remotely triggered seismicity in Gujarat, NW India during the Nepal earthquake, 2015
Gujarat in the Northwestern Deccan Volcanic Province of India is among the most seismically earthquake-prone. The region may be susceptible to remote dynamic triggering, especially the Kachchh region, which recently hosted the Mw7.7 Bhuj earthquake in ...
