Applying probabilistic methods to infrequent but devastating natural events is intrinsically
challenging. For tsunami analyses, a suite of geophysical assessments should be in …

Among the wide range of thermal, petrologic, hydrological, and structural factors that
potentially affect subduction earthquakes, the roughness of the subducting seafloor is …

We describe and present a new model of global subduction zone geometries, called Slab1.
0. An extension of previous efforts to constrain the two‐dimensional non‐planar geometry of …

The great Aceh-Andaman earthquake of December 26, 2004 and its tragic consequences
brought the Sumatran region and its active tectonics into the world's focus. The plate tectonic …

The 2011 Tohoku earthquake is another striking example–after the 2008 Wenchuan and
2010 Haiti earthquakes–of highly destructive earthquakes that occurred in areas predicted …

Because of a combination of new observational tools and a flurry of large megathrust
earthquakes, tremendous progress has been made in recent years towards understanding …

The current study presents a novel combination of artificial neural network cross-validation
(fourfold ANN-CV) with a hybrid analytic hierarchy process-Technique for Order of …

Recent centuries provide no precedent for the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, either on the
coasts it devastated or within its source area. The tsunami claimed nearly all of its victims on …

Abstract The Indian Ocean tsunami of 26 December 2004 reached maximum wave heights
of 35 m in Aceh, the northernmost province of Sumatra,. Both the tsunami and the associated …

In the upper crust, the chemical influence of pore water promotes time dependent brittle
deformation through sub‐critical crack growth. Sub‐critical crack growth allows rocks to …
