Even after I moved to Caltrans, the attackers still pursued me or my work through none other than the Caltrans Seismic Advisory Board. They had no shame or ethics in speaking out against the Caltrans map in mee
magnitude of the earthquakes and while intensity did not exceed V (Fig. S2), the sequence appeared to be interesting (from a seismotectonic point of view), driven by the fact that it took place in an area where no mapped fault existed on literature maps. Besides, previous seismic activity ...
Seismic swarms are related to volcanic activity over the main volcanic edifices (Dziak et al., 2010). An example of this is the 2015 Deception Island seismic swarm associated with deep magmatic intrusions which were preceded by a seismic swarm near Livingston Island in 2014 associated with tecton...
In order to promote an effective approach to the prevention of and preparedness for disasters, the countries participating in the Union Civil Protection Me
Soil gas geochemistry represents an useful tool to discriminate the gas migration related to seismic activity. The long term geochemical monitoring allowed to recognize that after an initial variation of soil gas distribution linked to seismic activity, the system in the Medolla area is slowly return...
Continental rifting activity continued from the onset of sea- floor spreading to the Early Miocene post-spreading period. By the start of the period of thermal subsidence, fault weakening and sedimentation resulted primarily in warping. The basement in the middle of the oceanic basin was up- ...
Conversely, reflection seismics, which characterize the Cenozoic accretionary complex of the North American Cordilleras near Vancouver Island and the Palaeoproterozoic Wopmay Orogen in north- western Canada, which were not subject to mantle–plume activity, display an extended image of the plunging ...
You can assign me to display in config.yml. Increased Seismic Activity in Southern California: What to Expect Southern California has always been a region prone to earthquakes, but recent trends suggest an uptick in seismic activity. According to Dr. Lucy Jones, a leading seismologist at Cal...
Deep seismicity is only considered within the deep seismic activity regions in the Aegean and Cyprian subduction zones. PGA is not used in the design spectrum computation of the updated national seismic design code. However, it is for the design of earth retaining structures as well as for lique...
Predicting earthquake risk areas and risk levels is vital in minimizing the loss of life. In this study, earthquake risk assessment has been conducted by producing predictions for both five-class and two-class risk levels. The methods were tested on Izmir province. For this purpose, the city ...
