Coulomb is intended both for publication-directed research and college graduate school classroom instruction. We believe that one learns best when can see the most explore alternatives quickly. So principal feature of ease input, rapid interactive modification, intuitive visualization results. The program has menus check-items, dialogue boxes to operation. internal graphics are suitable publication, be easily imported into Illustrator, GMT, Google Earth, or Flash further enhancements....

Coulomb stress calculations based on preliminary data and models suggest that the magnitude-7.5 shock Sürgü Çardak faults was brought closer to failure by magnitude-7.8 rupture East Anatolian Fault, 110 kilometers south.

Brought closer to failure by the Feb. 6, 2023, magnitude-7.8 shock, magnitude-7.5 shock that struck nine hours later caused aftershocks turn on in some zones and off others. But why both shocks nucleated secondary faults — one quite small, other misaligned for is unclear. Moreover, decades earlier, two independent groups noted heightened risk of large earthquakes approximate location event.

The Çınarcık Basin is a transtensional basin located along the northern branch of North Anatolian Fault (NAF) in Sea Marmara, eastern half which has been identified as seismic gap. During SEISMARMARA (2001) experiment, dense grid multichannel reflection profiles was shot, covering whole and its margins. new images provide nearly three‐dimensional view architecture (fault system at depth sedimentary infill) insight into tectonic evolution. Along both southern margins basin, data show...

The origin and prevalence of triggered seismicity remote aftershocks are under debate. As a result, they have been excluded from probabilistic seismic hazard assessment aftershock notices. 2004 M = 9.2 Sumatra earthquake altered in the Andaman backarc rift-transform system. Here we show that over 300-km-long largely transform section backarc, ≥4.5 earthquakes stopped for five years, 750-km-long section, rate events dropped by two-thirds, while rift increased eightfold. We compute propagating...

Abstract We calculate stress changes resulting from the M = 6.0 West Napa earthquake on north San Francisco Bay area faults. The ruptured within a series of long faults that pose significant hazard to area, and we are thus concerned with potential increases in probability large through transfer. conduct this exercise as prospective test because skill stress‐based aftershock forecasting methodology is inconclusive. apply three methods: (1) generalized mapping regional Coulomb change, (2)...

Using calculated stress changes to faults surrounding the January 12, 2010, rupture on Enriquillo Fault, and current (January 12 26, 2010) aftershock productivity, scientists from U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI), Disaster Prevention Research Institute, Kyoto University (DPRI) have made rough estimates of chance a magnitude (Mw)=7 earthquake occurring during 27 February 22, in Haiti. The probability such quake Port-au-Prince section Fault is about 2...

The quake produced severe shaking in a lightly populated area, brought the southern tip of Cascadia Subduction Zone slightly closer to failure, and modestly inhibited rupture on San Andreas Fault.
