The record of seismic, hydroacoustic, and infrasonic waves is essential to detect, identify,
and localize sources of both natural and anthropogenic origin. To guarantee traceability and …

Aftershocks are a response to changes in stress generated by large earthquakes and
represent the most common observations of the triggering of earthquakes. The maximum …

We develop new empirical scaling laws for rupture width W⁠, rupture length L⁠, rupture
area A⁠, and average slip D⁠, based on a large database of rupture models. The database …

In this paper, I propose the scaling relation W= C 1 L β (where β≈ 2/3) to describe the
scaling of rupture width with rupture length. I also propose a new displacement relation …

Subduction zone plate boundary megathrust faults accommodate relative plate motions with
spatially varying sliding behavior. The 2004 Sumatra‐Andaman (Mw 9.2), 2010 Chile (Mw …

The 2004 Sumatra-Andaman earthquake has been extensively studied because of its great
size and devastating consequences. Large amounts of high-quality seismic, geodetic, and …

Subduction zone megathrust faults host Earth's largest earthquakes, along with multitudes of
smaller events that contribute to plate convergence. An understanding of the faulting …

Laboratory simulations of earthquakes show that at high slip rates, faults can weaken
significantly, aiding rupture,,. Various mechanisms, such as thermal pressurization and flash …

In the first edition, we paid attention not only to tsunami waves, but to related phenomena,
namely, seaquakes, as well, which to a significant extent reflected the interests of the …

Geodetic and paleogeodetic measurements of interseismic strain above the Sumatran
portion of the Sunda subduction zone reveal a heterogeneous pattern of coupling. Annual …
