Abstract An earthquake sequence in the Storfjorden offshore area southwest of Spitsbergen Svalbard archipelago initiated with a 21 February 2008 magnitude Mw 6.1 event. This had previously not produced any significant earthquakes, but between and 2020, total ?2800 earthquakes were detected, ?16 them being moderate size (ML?4.0). Applying double-difference relocation to improve relative location...

Bathymetric data at a 200-m contour interval for the entire Mariana forearc, from south of 13°N to 25°N, permits the ®rst comprehensive overview of this feature. The Mariana forearc represents a sediment-starved end-member. The forearc in its southern and central sections is divisible into a structurally complex eastern province and a less-deformed western province. Despite the absence of an ac...

[1] The 1999 Chi-Chi earthquake, Mw = 7.6, broke a major thrust fault along the western foothills of the Central Range of Taiwan. We have measured the horizontal coseismic displacement field by correlating optical satellite images acquired before and after the earthquake. These data reveal the fault trace and a clockwise rotation of surface displacements toward the north with much larger displa...

Foursquare is a search and discovery tool which helps users discover venues around the world. Much of the data for these recommendations come from its sister app Swarm, which is a location based social network where users can “check in” to places they visit. Older versions of Foursquare had a strongly static component to its recommendations. For instance, the top restaurants in New York City do...
