The archipelago of Comoros was generally considered a moderately seismic region. However, since May 2018, unusual seismicity has been observed off the east coast of Mayotte Island.

Validation of ShakeMaps Created From Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) Velocities
Ground velocity observations generated through a time difference of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) phase observables and orbits have been shown to be comparable to seismic recordings without clipping during intense ground motions. Computing GNSS velocities is also computationally scalable and increases the density of ground motion ...

Satellite‐Based Assessment of Methane Emissions From the Darvaza Gas Crater
Abstract Methane is a potent greenhouse gas, and the Darvaza crater in Turkmenistan is a rare, persistent emitter. There are uncertainties regarding its formation date (either 1963 or 1971), fire ignition, and the fire's influence on methane release. Using historical Landsat imagery, we reconstruct the fire history, identifying that combustion began ...

Correction to: Magnitude–frequency distribution of volcanic explosion earthquakes
Magnitude–frequency distributions of volcanic explosion earthquakes that are associated with occurrences of vulcanian and strombolian eruptions, or gas burst activity, are examined at six active volcanoes.

Abstract Low frequency sound can travel great distances in planetary atmospheres. When these waves reflect off the air/ground interface, energy may be absorbed or transferred to mechanical waves in the subsurface. This study describes the direct and reflected acoustic wave generated by the re‐entry of the OSIRIS‐REx Sample Return Capsule captured on a ...

An analytical model for gas overpressure in slug-driven explosions : insights into Strombolian volcanic eruptions [PDF]
Strombolian eruptions, common at basaltic volcanoes, are mildly explosive events that are driven by a large bubble of magmatic gas (a slug) rising up the conduit and bursting at the surface.

Subglacial volcano monitoring with fibre-optic sensing: Grímsvötn, Iceland
We present a distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) experiment at Grímsvötn, Iceland. This is intended to investigate volcano-microseismicity at Grímsvötn specifically, and to assess the suitability of DAS as a subglacial volcano monitoring tool in general ...

Seismic Evidence for Slab Tearing Beneath the Indo‐Myanmar Subduction Zone
Abstract Slab tearing has been increasingly recognized as a key geodynamic process influencing the evolution of the eastern Himalayan syntaxis. However, whether, where and how the subducted Indian slab beneath the Indo‐Myanmar subduction zone has been torn remains poorly constrained.

Morphology of the Piip submarine volcano in the Komandorsky Basin based on multibeam echosounder data [PDF]
We analyzed the bathymetric data obtained during the cruises on the German research vessel “Sonne” using multibeam echosounders within the framework of the Russian-German projects KALMAR (cruise SO201-2, 2009) and BERING (cruise SO249-2, 2016) in the ...

To investigate the magma plumbing system beneath the Akan Caldera (Hokkaido, Japan), we conducted broadband magnetotelluric surveys and imaged its three-dimensional resistivity structure to a depth of approximately 30 km.
