Ready to brainstorm about earthquake processes in a beautiful island? Come to the workshop on "Earthquakes: nucleation, triggering, rupture and aseismic processes" in Cargèse, Corsica, France, October 14-18 2024. Pre-registration is open until June 10: earthquakes4.sciencesconf.org

Two weeks left to apply to attend the 4th Cargèse Earthquake School! We will discuss earthquake nucleation, triggering, dynamic rupture, and links to aseismic faulting on the island of Corsica, France, October 14-18 (& marvel at ocean, beach & stars) earthquakes4.sciencesconf.org

Earthquake swarms triggered by an extreme rainstorm in the southern French Alps are reported, analyzed and hydro-mechanically modelled in this new OA paper by Jacquemond et al doi.org/10.1029/2024EA…

Preprint alert: Do large earthquakes start with precursory slow slip? eartharxiv.org/repository/vie…. We review the elements of discussion that have raised following our Science publication last year and address them through a series of tests. Any feedback welcome.

A follow-up analysis by Bletery & Nocquet addresses non-peer-reviewed comments on their Science paper "The precursory phase of large earthquakes" (doi.org/10.1126/scienc…). Reproducible code is provided. The work is undergoing formal peer review. Informal comments are welcome.

Three generations of the Ampuero family at the NMEM 2024 workshop on Numerical Modeling of Earthquake Motions at Smolenice Castle, Slovakia nuquake.eu/NMEM2024/ It was great to see them all advancing earthquake science!

How can we assess a fault system's seismic hazard? Our new Nature Communications paper with Faqi Diao, Pablo Ampuero, and others shows how combining high-resolution fault coupling with a physics-based model reveals max earthquake potential: nature.com/articles/s4146…

Two epicenters led to Japan’s violent Noto earthquake on New Year's Day newsroom.ucla.edu/releases/japan…

Dual-initiation ruptures in the 2024 Noto earthquake encircling a fault asperity at a swarm edge | Science science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Excited to see our work on the 2024 Noto EQ led by Liuwei Xu, Ji Chen, and Lingsen Meng featured on the cover of Science Magazine! Combining seismic & geodetic data, we found complex ruptures in the initial stage of this New Year's EQ that led to violent shaking

Here is a youtube livestream of seismic (DAS) data recorded along the submarine fiber optic cables in Chile🤩

Huge (and belated) congratulations to Martijn van den Ende for receiving the Keiiti Aki Early Career Award of AGU (American Geophysical Union) Seismology Section of AGU for his groundbreaking research in Seismology and beyond, from experimental rock friction & earthquake cycle modeling to Deep Learning analysis of DAS data

Estimating the magnitude and focal mechanism of an earthquake using only data preceding seismic (P) waves. This is what Kévin Juhel managed to do using the Alaska US array and some deep learning skills. Just out in Nature Com. E&E: nature.com/articles/s4324…

Did you miss the 2024 Cargese workshop on earthquakes? No problem, the video recordings are now available at youtube.com/playlist?list=… and the program and slides at earthquakes4.sciencesconf.org Big thanks to all our speakers for making their materials available to all!

Evento recomendado en Lima: Diego Mercerat, sismólogo Earthquakes Geoazur, charlará este jueves 21/11 en Barranco sobre el efecto de terremotos pasados y futuros en el patrimonio cultural del Cusco, midiendo las vibraciones sísmicas de sitios arqueológicos icónicos como Macchu Picchu.

Bletery & Nocquet address the lively debate sparked by their findings on the precursory phase of large earthquakes, presenting new tests and insights. Learn more: doi.org/10.26443/seism…

Seen this Myanmar earthquake video ? We used it to measure, for the first time, the slip velocity along the fault during a natural earthquake. Results demonstrate earthquake ruptures are pulse like and bring unprecedented constraints on earthquake models: arxiv.org/abs/2505.15461
