introduction tsunami is a series of water waves caused by the displacement of a large amount of water which is generated by underwater earthquake, volcano, landslide or other disturbances below water. the makran subduction zone (msz) is one of the regions that have potential to generate tsunami which also has been occurred in 1985 and is capable of another one. in msz, the coasts of chabahar ba...

Historic earthquake sequences on subduction zones that are similar to the Cascadia subduction zone are used to hypothesize the nature of shallow subduction earthquakes that might occur in the northwestern United States. Based on systematic comparisons of several physical characteristics, including physiography and seismicity, subduction zones that are deemed most similar to the Cascadia subduct...

Western Makran is one of the few subduction zones left with a largely unconstrained seismogenic potential. According to sparse GPS stations, accumulating some strain be released during future earthquakes. To enhance seismic hazard assessment, we here propose study finite deformation western accretionary wedge. Mechanical modelling used retrieve spatial variations frictional properties megathrus...

[1] On 23 June 2001, a Mw = 8.4 underthrusting earthquake occurred in the southern Peru subduction zone, followed by several large aftershocks, including 26 June (Mw = 6.7) and 7 July (Mw = 7.5). Broadband analyses of seismic data for the largest of these earthquakes show southeastward rupture of 180 km along the portion of the subduction zone previously ruptured in 1868 (Mw 8.8–9). Moment rele...

OBJECTIVE To describe how mesalazine (MSZ) is used in our practice in ulcerative colitis (UC), at what dose, and the success rate (regarding adherence to therapy). METHODS Observational, transversal study, including all patients with UC and with MSZ maintenance therapy seen from September 2014 to February 2015 at two IBD units in Spain. Treatment adherence was measured by the Morisky-Green sc...

Large subduction earthquakes on the Cascadia subduction zone pose a potential seismic hazard. Very young oceanic lithosphere (10 million years old) is being subducted beneath North America at a rate of approximately 4 centimeters per year. The Cascadia subduction zone shares many characteristics with subduction zones in southern Chile, southwestern Japan, and Colombia, where comparably young oc...
