The great Aceh-Andaman earthquake of December 26, 2004 and its tragic consequences
brought the Sumatran region and its active tectonics into the world's focus. The plate tectonic …

Indonesia is one of the most seismically active countries in the world, and its large,
vulnerable population makes reliable seismic hazard assessment an urgent priority. In 2016 …

This essential reference for graduate students and researchers provides a unified treatment
of earthquakes and faulting as two aspects of brittle tectonics at different timescales. The …

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 …

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 …

A data set of earthquake hypocenters and associated traveltime residuals for seismic
phases recorded by seismograph stations globally is an essential starting point for most …

Seismological observations of the 2012 moment magnitude 8.6 Sumatra earthquake reveal
unprecedented complexity of dynamic rupture. The surprisingly large magnitude results from …

A number of examples are presented to substantiate that submarine landslides have
occurred along most continental margins and along several volcano flanks. Their properties …

We estimate a new angular velocity for the India plate and contemporary deformation rates
in the plate interior and along its seismically active margins from Global Positioning System …

In the upper crust, the chemical influence of pore water promotes time dependent brittle
deformation through sub‐critical crack growth. Sub‐critical crack growth allows rocks to …
