New technologies are being used to facilitate the recognition process during and after
earthquakes. These advanced tools are essential to keep track of what is left from of the …

Abstract The 2023 M7. 8 and M7. 5 earthquake doublet near Kahramanmaraş, Turkey,
provides insight regarding how large earthquakes rupture complex faults. Here we …

The five M w≥ 7.8 continental transform earthquakes since 2000 all nucleated on branch
faults. This includes the 2001 M w 7.8 Kokoxili, 2002 M w 7.9 Denali, 2008 M w 7.9 …

Finite‐element models of neotectonics require transform faults to rupture seismically even
where preseismic shear stresses are low, presumably by dynamic‐weakening mechanisms …

Active fault zones have complex structural and geometric features that are expected to affect
earthquake nucleation, rupture propagation with shear and volumetric deformation, and …

Several physical mechanisms of earthquake nucleation, such as pre-slip, cascade
triggering, aseismic slip, and fluid-driven models, have been proposed. However, it is still …

Abstract On February 6, 2023, an Mw 7.9 earthquake occurred in the western section of the
East Anatolia Fault Zone (EAFZ). It was subsequently followed by an Mw 7.7 earthquake on …

While the structural deformation at the Arabia-Anatolia-Africa junction is critical for
understanding eastern Mediterranean tectonics, it remains debatable (extensional or …

Deep tectonic tremor has been observed along major subduction zones and several
continental strike‐slip faults around the Pacific Rim and the Caribbean. However, it has not …

Abstract On February 6th, 2023, two severe earthquakes struck southeastern Türkiye near
the Syrian border. The first earthquake, Mw7. 8, occurred at 04: 17 local time in the East …
