A long source area of the 1906 Colombia–Ecuador earthquake estimated from observed tsunami waveforms

The 1906 Colombia–Ecuador earthquake induced both strong seismic motions and a tsunami, the most destruc‐ tive earthquake in the history of the Colombia–Ecuador subduction zone. The tsunami propagated across the Pacific Ocean, and its waveforms were observed at tide gauge stations in countries including Panama, Japan, and the USA. This study conducted slip inverse analysis for the 1906 earthqua...

A great earthquake rupture across a rapidly evolving three-plate boundary.

On 1 April 2007 a great, tsunamigenic earthquake (moment magnitude 8.1) ruptured the Solomon Islands subduction zone at the triple junction where the Australia and Solomon Sea-Woodlark Basin plates simultaneously underthrust the Pacific plate with different slip directions. The associated abrupt change in slip direction during the great earthquake drove convergent anelastic deformation of the u...

Tide gauge records of uplift along the northern Pacific-North American plate boundary, 1937 to 2001

[1] Vertical crustal motions at 15 sites along the northern Pacific-North America plate boundary are determined using relative sea level changes from tide gauge records. Our analysis is based on monthly mean sea levels, from which barometric pressure and seasonal effects are removed. The records are corrected for common-mode oceanographic variations. These records are statistically examined for...

Seismic Data Forecasting: A Sequence Prediction or a Sequence Recognition Task

In this paper, we have tried to predict earthquake events in a cluster of seismic data on pacific ring of fire, using multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS). The model is employed as either a predictor for a sequence prediction task, or a binary classifier for a sequence recognition problem, which could alternatively help to predict an event. Here, we explain that sequence prediction/r...

Prospects for Precise Electroweak Physics at the LHC

In addition to its discovery potential, the LHC offers unique possibilities for precise measurements in the electroweak sector. In the present note, results of several electroweak analyses are presented; measurements of the top quark and W boson masses, triple gauge couplings as well as forward-backward asymmetry measurements. All electroweak measurements at the LHC benefit from large cross sec...
