(a) Geological units and earthquake distribution of an oceanic subduction zone. The orange shadow beneath the volcanic arc represents partially molten areas and magma channels. (b) Thermal structure ...
Beijing Zhongke Journal Publising Co. Ltd. The Makran Subduction Zone, located in the northeastern Arabian Sea, is an active tectonic region where the Arabian Plate is subducting beneath the Eurasian ...
Recent research has suggested that seismicity may be more likely during slow slip episodes (SSEs). The Mexico subduction zone is an ideal location for studying the interaction between slow slip events ...
A new methodology for the automated identification and characterization of swarms and Mainshock-Aftershock (MsAs) sequences was recently developed and applied to seismicity in the Mexico subduction ...
A new study, resorting to computational models, predicts that a subduction zone currently below the Gibraltar Strait will propagate further inside the Atlantic and contribute to forming an Atlantic ...
The Earth's lithosphere is the rigid outer shell of the planet and is broken into several tectonic plates. These plates are in constant motion over the semi-fluid asthenosphere underneath them. Much ...
Subduction zones, where one tectonic plate slides beneath another, produce the most devastating seismic, volcanic, and landslide hazards on the planet. A new report presents an ambitious plan to make ...
South of New Zealand in the Tasman Sea is a stretch of stormy ocean where the waves regularly swell 20 feet (6 meters) or more and the winds blow at 30 mph (48 km/h) on a good day. Deep below these ...
