Citizen Scientists Help Detect and Classify Dynamically Triggered Seismic Activity in Alaska

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020
In this citizen science project, we ask citizens to listen to relevant sections of seismograms that are converted to audible frequencies. Citizen scientists helped identify local seismic events whose recorded signals are much smaller than those ...

Volcanic and Tectonic Sources of Seismicity Near the Tanaga Volcanic Cluster, Alaska

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2023
Tanaga Island in the Central Aleutian Islands includes four stratovolcanoes: Sajaka, Tanaga, and East Tanaga in the northwest, and Takawangha in the central part of the island. Of these volcanoes, only Tanaga has a confirmed record of historical eruptive

Geomorphological insight into changing tectonic regime, Pasinler Basin, Turkey [PDF]

, 2008
The Pasinler Basin, in the East Anatolian Contractional Province, features a suite of geomorphological zones, visible in the field, air photographs and Landsat and SRTM DEM imagery. These zones reflect past and current tectonically influenced processes.

Automated hypocenter determination of tectonic tremors in the Nankai subduction zone using convolutional neural networks combined with semblance analysis

Earth, Planets and Space
Recent advances in deep learning have enhanced our ability to analyze seismic waveforms. Here, we developed and evaluated a convolutional neural network (CNN) model to classify tectonic tremors, earthquakes, and noise in seismic waveform data recorded by

Advances in vital‐sign prediction and early‐warning models for underground coal mine workers integrating environmental factors

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes advances in predicting miners' vital signs by integrating environmental monitoring (dust, temperature, and gas) with physiological data. It highlights multi‐source data fusion techniques and early‐warning models for enhanced occupational safety in underground coal mines.

Building a Continental‐Scale Geodetic Network: The Plate Boundary Observatory (PBO)

Perspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 7, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract The Plate Boundary Observatory (PBO) transformed the use of geodesy in North America to study crustal deformation and plate boundary processes by establishing a continental‐scale, standardized, open‐access geodetic network. Built and operated by UNAVCO between 2003 and 2018 as part of the National Science Foundation (NSF)‐funded EarthScope ...

Using Portable Transducers to Measure Tremor Severity [PDF]

, 2016
Background: Portable motion transducers, suitable for measuring tremor, are now available at a reasonable cost. The use of these transducers requires knowledge of their limitations and data analysis.

Preliminary geological evidence for multiple tremors in Kwoi, Central Nigeria

Geoenvironmental Disasters, 2020
Preliminary field assessment of the geological evidence for the September 2016 multiple tremors was felt as far as 10 km in Nok and Chori villages in the north and northwest of Kwoi respectively.

Quantifying the Role of 3D Fault Geometry Complexities on Slow and Fast Earthquakes

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.
Abstract Traditional models of slow slip events (SSEs) oversimplify fault geometry, although imaging shows subduction faults are segmented and complex. We examine how fault interactions control slip behavior using 3D quasi‐dynamic simulations of two parallel faults with uniform rate‐weakening friction accelerated by hierarchical matrices.

Possible Shallow Tectonic Tremor Signals Near the Deformation Front in Central Cascadia

Seismica
To better constrain the locking state of the shallow Cascadia megathrust, we investigate whether shallow tectonic tremor occurs near the deformation front at ~44.5°N during 2015-2024. We focus on two cabled buried ocean bottom seismometers (OBSs) on the
