Searching for hidden earthquakes in Southern California

ZE Ross, DT Trugman, E Hauksson, PM Shearer - Science, 2019 - science.org
Earthquakes follow a well-known power-law size relation, with smaller events occurring
much more often than larger events. Earthquake catalogs are thus dominated by small …

Distributed acoustic sensing using dark fiber for near-surface characterization and broadband seismic event detection

We present one of the first case studies demonstrating the use of distributed acoustic
sensing deployed on regional unlit fiber-optic telecommunication infrastructure (dark fiber) …

Real-time discrimination of earthquake foreshocks and aftershocks

L Gulia, S Wiemer - Nature, 2019 - nature.com
Immediately after a large earthquake, the main question asked by the public and decision-
makers is whether it was the mainshock or a foreshock to an even stronger event yet to …

3D fault architecture controls the dynamism of earthquake swarms

ZE Ross, ES Cochran, DT Trugman, JD Smith - Science, 2020 - science.org
The vibrant evolutionary patterns made by earthquake swarms are incompatible with
standard, effectively two-dimensional (2D) models for general fault architecture. We …

Machine‐learning‐based high‐resolution earthquake catalog reveals how complex fault structures were activated during the 2016–2017 central Italy sequence

YJ Tan, F Waldhauser, WL Ellsworth… - The Seismic …, 2021 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
The 2016–2017 central Italy seismic sequence occurred on an 80 km long normal‐fault
