Crustal deformation patterns are affected by multiscale granulation and healing processes
associated with phase transitions between continuum and discrete states of rocks. The …

There is striking evidence that the dynamics of the Earth crust is controlled by a wide variety
of mutually dependent mechanisms acting at different spatial and temporal scales. The …

We introduce a new method to determine the magnitude of completeness M c and its
uncertainty. Our method models the entire magnitude range (emr method) consisting of the …

The earthquake size distribution follows, in most instances, a power law,, with the slope of
this power law, the 'b value', commonly used to describe the relative occurrence of large and …

Abstract The Magnitude–Frequency-Distribution (MFD) of earthquakes is typically modeled
with the (tapered) Gutenberg–Richter relation. The main parameter of this relation, the b …

During an Enhanced Geothermal System (EGS) experiment, fluid is injected at high
pressure into crystalline rock, to enhance its permeability and thus create a reservoir from …

We compute and analyze P wave spectra from earthquakes in southern California between
1989 and 2001 using a method that isolates source‐, receiver‐, and path‐dependent terms …

While deterministically predicting the time and location of earthquakes remains impossible,
earthquake forecasting models can provide estimates of the probabilities of earthquakes …

Submarine landslides are ubiquitous along Mediterranean continental margins. With the aim
of understanding mass‐wasting processes and related hazard at the scale of a large marine …

Constraints on the recurrence times of subduction zone earthquakes are important for
seismic hazard assessment and mitigation. Models of such megathrust earthquakes often …
