Faults are complex shear zones within the Earth’s lithosphere with a crucial role in plate tectonics and are of important interest for society. They define the boundaries of tectonic plates and accommodate their relative motions, shaping mountain belts and basins. Faults are conduits for fluid migration and control the...
Earthquakes at subduction zones are among the most powerful natural events on Earth. During the interseismic, coseismic, and postseismic phases, interseismic coupling, co- and postseismic slip along the megathrust, and viscoelastic relaxation in the mantle produce the observed surface displacements. Different combinati...
Megathrust faults in subduction zones often serve as seismogenic environments for destructive earthquakes. To verify whether the material properties of subduction zones influence aftershock propagation and earthquake magnitude, we investigated the northern Ecuador subduction zone using local 8G network data to locate s...
Developing geoenergy technologies such as Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) requires underground fluid injection operations, which, under certain conditions, can induce large-magnitude earthquakes. To mitigate the seismic hazard, various injection protocols have been proposed to regulate operational parameters. This st...
Understanding the mechanisms controlling microseismicity in fluid-rich areas is key for assessing seismic hazards and the interaction between tectonics, magmatism, and geothermal systems. The Tuscan Magmatic Province, straddling the Tyrrhenian coast of southern Tuscany and northern Latium in Italy, is an ideal place...
This study presents a preliminary quantification of subsurface dynamic properties within the Quaternary-Tertiary geological formations in Jantho, Aceh Besar, Indonesia. The area lies near three major seismic sources, the subduction zone of the Indo-Australian plate under the Eurasian plate, the Great Sumatran Fault, an...
