Abstract Condor Seamount is among the most seismically active regions on the Azores Plateau. In December 2019, an earthquake crisis occurred at the tip of the seamount, which was strongly felt on nearby islands. Two months after the peak of the crisis, we deployed a local network of five ocean‐bottom seismometers around the seamount, recording ...

Crustal Density Differences Along Mars' Dichotomy Boundary From Gravity and Topography
Abstract Seismic data for Mars has provided constraints on the thickness of its crust, but its density and how much it varies spatially, especially across the hemispherical dichotomy, is still undetermined. We apply a novel constraint in the analysis of spacecraft tracking data to determine Mars' gravity field that allows for the determination of the ...

Volcanic seismicity of Villarrica Volcano
This thesis analyzes the nature and origin of the low-frequent seismicity of Villarrica Volcano in Chile. Villarrica is an active volcano with an intermittent lava lake in its central vent. The typical volcanic activity consists of persistent degassing and usually mild Strombolian explosions and is accompanied by a notorious seismic tremor overlain by ...

Abstract Seismic and aseismic slip has been reported in the Nankai Trough. In this study we apply ambient noise differential adjoint tomography to obtain a high‐resolution S‐wave velocity (Vs) model in the Nankai Trough. The Vs in the very shallow imbricate thrust zone is higher than that on both the seaward and landward sides.

Abrupt Suppression of Tectonic Tremors Outside the Stress Shadow of Mendocino Earthquakes
Abstract Tectonic tremor is a long‐duration noise‐like seismic signal associated with slow fault motion at major plate boundaries. Due to their remarkable sensitivity to stress perturbations, tremors serve as invaluable probes of the mechanical state and stress conditions deep within fault zones.

A repeatable seismic source for tomography at volcanoes
One major problem associated with the interpretation of seismic signals on active volcanoes is the lack of knowledge about the internal structure of the volcano. Assuming a 1D or a homogeneous instead of a 3D velocity structure leads to an erroneous localization of seismic events. In order to derive a high resolution 3D velocity model ofMt.

Seismic Exploration for Magmatic Brine Lenses: An Example From Soufrière Hills Volcano, Montserrat
Abstract The majority of metallic ore deposits are related to processes associated with ancient or modern volcanic systems. Beyond geothermal energy production, volcanoes also represent a potential resource of critical metals, including those required for carbon‐neutral technologies. Geothermal metals occur in subsurface fluid reservoirs fed by surface

Common spatial patterns in earthquake swarms from volcanic systems worldwide
Volcanic seismic swarms, clusters of earthquakes without a distinct mainshock, are commonly linked to magma and fluid movements rather than tectonic stress transfer.

Global Evidence for Off‐Axis Flexural Modification of Abyssal Hill Faults at Mid‐Ocean Ridges
Abstract Young oceanic lithosphere flexes as axial topography decays across mid‐ocean ridge shoulders, yet this deformation has been quantified at only a few segments, leaving its global expression poorly constrained. We analyzed 50 across‐axis bathymetric profiles from 21 regions spanning slow to fast spreading rates, identified 1,201 abyssal‐hill ...

Abstract Volcano‐tectonic (VT) earthquakes generated during dike propagation provide useful constraints on stress changes in volcanic systems. During the 1998 pre‐eruptive unrest at Piton de la Fournaise, ∼600 VT earthquakes were recorded. Using manually picked first‐motion polarities and corrected station metadata, we calculated more than 400 high ...
