Coseismic slip on shallow décollement megathrusts: Implications for seismic and tsunami hazard
For years, many studies of subduction zones and on-land fold-and-thrust belts have
assumed that the frontal portions of accretionary prisms are too weak to rupture …

Reassessment of the 1907 Sumatra “tsunami earthquake” based on macroseismic, seismological, and tsunami observations, and modeling
On 4 January 1907, an earthquake occurred off the west coast of Sumatra, Indonesia, with
an instrumental surface-wave magnitude (MS) in the range of 7.5–8.0 at periods of~ 40 s …
