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

Detection of small crustal deformation caused by slow slip events in southwest Japan using GNSS and tremor data

Earth, Planets and Space, 2019
We stacked daily Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) displacement increments in southwest Japan to detect the cumulative crustal deformation accompanying non-volcanic low-frequency tremors from April 1, 2004 to December 31, 2009, which are ...

Rock Burst Mechanism under Coupling Action of Working Face Square and Regional Tectonic Stress

Shock and Vibration, 2021
With the development of faults in many coalfields, many large faults will form a relatively independent area, forming regional tectonic stress concentration.

Team Cognition Research Is Transforming Cognitive Science

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract About 30 years ago, the Dynamical Hypothesis instigated a variety of insights and transformations in cognitive science. One of them was the simple observation that, quite unlike trial‐based tasks in a laboratory, natural ecologically valid behaviors almost never have context‐free starting points.

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 ...

The 2025 Mw 7.6 Aomori Megathrust Earthquake in Northeast Japan: Failure of a Structurally and Rheologically Bounded Asperity Beneath a Cold Mantle Wedge

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.
Abstract To explore mechanisms of rupture segmentation, we invert coseismic GNSS offsets for the 2025 Mw 7.6 Aomori, Japan earthquake. Our preferred curved‐fault solution images a compact thrust rupture at 25–50 km depth with peak slip ∼2.5 m near 35 km.

Long-term slow slip events with and without tremor activation in the Bungo Channel and Hyuganada, southwest Japan

Earth, Planets and Space, 2023
Slow slip events (SSEs) lasting for approximately 1 year occur every 6–8 years around the Bungo Channel in the southwest Japan subduction zone. The slip time evolution of the latest Bungo Channel SSE that occurred in 2018–2019 has been studied; however ...

Transient Creep on the Yarlung Zangbo Suture in Southern Tibet Triggered by the 2015 Gorkha (Nepal) Earthquake

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.
Abstract Large earthquakes often elevate seismicity in surrounding regions, as seen on the Xainza‐Dinggyê rift in southern Tibet after the 2015 MW 7.8 Gorkha (Nepal) earthquake. In contrast, the EW‐trending Yarlung Zangbo suture (YZS), located directly north of this event, exhibits seismic quiescence.

Evolution of Coupled Seismic‐Aseismic Slip During the 2025 Mw 6.8 Sanriku‐Oki, Japan, Megathrust Sequence

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.
Abstract On 9 November 2025, a Mw 6.8 Sanriku‐Oki earthquake struck a Japan Trench segment with inferred recurrent aseismic slip and Mw ∼7 earthquakes. Using S‐net seafloor data, we examine the preparatory and post‐mainshock evolution of this foreshock–mainshock–aftershock sequence.

A review of tidal triggering of global earthquakes

Geodesy and Geodynamics, 2023
Earthquake prediction remains a challenging and difficult task for scientists all over the world. The tidal triggering of earthquakes is being proven by an increasing number of investigations, most of which have shown that earthquakes are positively ...
