Charles Richter's observation that'only fools and charlatans predict earthquakes,'reflects the
fact that despite more than 100 years of effort, seismologists remain unable to do so with …

▪ Abstract Geodetic measurements obtained with the Global Positioning System (GPS) are
increasingly more widely applied in geophysical studies. In this paper, we review the …

We have studied the Cenozoic and active tectonics of the north-eastern rim of Tibet west of
the Yellow River (Gansu, China) where the western Haiyuan Fault enters the eastern Qilian …

We estimate slip rates on major active faults in southern California using a block model
constrained by Global Positioning System measurements of interseismic deformation. The …

Far too few moderate earthquakes have occurred within the Los Angeles, California,
metropolitan region during the 200-year-long historic period to account for observed strain …

The last decade has witnessed a resurrection of historical decadal geodetic rates provide a
reasonable proxy for the long-term rates of plate motions (Donnellan et al., 1993; concepts …

Abstract The 17 January 1994 Northridge, California, earthquake significantly deformed the
Earth's crust in the epicentral region. Displacements of 66 survey stations determined from …

Small differences in the ratio of neodymium-142 to neodymium-144 in early formed mantle
reservoirs in planetary bodies are the result of in situ decay of the extinct radionuclide …

We use global positioning system (GPS) geodesy and synthetic aperture radar (SAR)
interferometry to distinguish between interseismic strain accumulation and anthropogenic …

Abstract The Sichuan-Tibet Railway in eastern Tibet runs across numerous seismogenic
faults with high seismic risks. The Lancangjiang fault (LCJF), one of the essential strike-slip …
