Recorded displacements in a landslide slope due to regional and teleseismic earthquakes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Regional and teleseismic earthquakes can induce displacements along joints in a landslideinvolved rocky slope in Central Italy. The rarity of these effects is due to specific physical properties of the seismic signals associated with: (i) the energy ...

Multi‐Stage Shallow Rupture and Pre‐Event Shallow Deformation During the 2025 Mw 5.9 Asadabad Earthquake (Afghanistan)

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract The 31 August 2025 Mw 5.9 Asadabad earthquake in eastern Afghanistan caused severe damage despite its moderate magnitude, raising questions about rupture processes and seismic hazard in the southern Hindu Kush. Using Sentinel‐1 InSAR and teleseismic waveform modeling, we reveal a complex, multi‐stage shallow (4–5 km) rupture involving the ...

Seismic Imaging Reveals Ongoing Modification of Craton Margins in Northeast Asia

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract Cratonic margins are commonly modified, yet the processes responsible remain debated. The Korean Peninsula, situated between adjacent cratons, the Japan Trench, and a back‐arc system, provides a natural setting to investigate this problem. Using 4 years of dense seismic observations, we image upper‐mantle structure beneath the peninsula with P‐

Probing Slow Earthquakes With Deep Learning

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2020
Slow earthquakes may trigger failure on neighboring locked faults that are stressed sufficiently to break, and slow slip patterns may evolve before a nearby great earthquake.

Opportunities for the U.S. Geological Survey's National Seismic Hazard Model to Improve Seismic Risk Assessment of Critical Infrastructure

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
As fragility and risk modeling techniques and computational capabilities evolve, complemented by moving toward more routine and systematic seismic risk assessment of all buildings and critical infrastructure, the authors pose a few critical questions to investigate how the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) National Seismic Hazard Models (NSHMs) can be used

Llaima volcano dataset: In-depth comparison of deep artificial neural network architectures on seismic events classification

open access: yesData in Brief, 2020
This data manuscript presents a set of signals collected from the Llaima volcano located at the western edge of the Andes in Araucania Region, Chile. The signals were recorded from the LAV station between 2010 and 2016.

The 1723 AD violent Strombolian and phreatomagatic eruption at Irazu volcano (Costa Rica) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The largest of the recorded historic eruptions at Irazú volcano began on February 16, 1723 and lasted until at least December 11. We here critically examine deposits of this eruption exposed on the summit of Irazú. Our reconstruction of the eruption is

Earthquakes, volcanoes, and rectified diffusion [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Rectified diffusion is a mechanism by which a strain wave can rapidly pump volatiles into a bubble and therefore increase the pressure in a closed system.

Seismicity, Repeating Earthquakes, and Tomographic Imaging of the Blanco Transform Fault System, Northeast Pacific

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract The Blanco transform fault system (BTFS) represents an evolving transform plate boundary in the Northeast Pacific Ocean. Its seismic behavior was captured with a dense network of 54 ocean‐bottom seismometers (OBS) operated for 1 year. We created a high‐resolution earthquake catalog based on different machine‐learning onset pickers.

Aeromagnetic mapping of fault architecture along Lagos–Ore axis, southwestern Nigeria

open access: yesOpen Geosciences, 2020
A seismic wave is released when there is sudden displacement on a fault plane. The passage of this wave along the fault plane or within the lithosphere could result in ground shaking or vibration at the surface of the Earth.
