  1. Using seismic noise and Horizontal-to-Vertical Spectral Ratios, Ávila-Barrientos et al. find a great dispersion of VS30 results in Baja California, Mexico, consistent with the heterogeneities between The Mexicali Valley and the Peninsular Ranges:

  2. A new passive OBS dataset acquired in the Red Sea by Parisi et al. reveals that microseisms are frequently generated locally and that there could be new volcanoes or hydrothermal vents waiting to be discovered!

  3. "The potency of earthquakes in each country, we define as the sum of fatalities reported divided by the number of earthquakes that generated the associated disasters. Thus, the potency measures the size of the disaster generated by an average fatal earthquake in each country."

    Unexpected?

    "The leaders in the list of potency are Haiti, Azerbaijan, Syria and Israel, all with potencies above 20,000 fatalities per average earthquake."

  4. Evangelidis et al. image the western edge of the Aegean Shear Zone using the South Evia 2022-2023 Seismic Sequence.

    They identify the activation of a NW-SE fault structure, emphasizing the urgency for better seismic network coverage in the region.

  5. With colleagues, I convene a session at next EGU in Vienna, dealing with #SeismicHazard in slowly deforming areas.
    Deadline of abstract submission is 10 january.

  6. I am beyond thrilled to share that I've accepted the position of Hazards Geologist with the #Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries (aka #DOGAMI), based in the #Portland office.

    So excited to join a great team and for the opportunity to continue to grow and learn as a research scientist with a focus on furthering #seismichazard and #geologicmapping programs throughout the state.
