Spatial variations of b-values in the coastal area of Guangdong
We used earthquake catalogs recorded by Guangdong Seismological Network from 2008 to 2014 to resolve the spatial variations of b-values in the coastal area of Guangdong, particularly in three key research areas (...

Seismogenic structures of the 2006 ML4.0 Dangan Island earthquake offshore Hong Kong
The northern margin of the South China Sea, as a typical extensional continental margin, has relatively strong intraplate seismicity. Compared with the active zones of Nanao Island, Yangjiang, and Heyuan, seis...

Seismotectonics of the Taiwan Shoal region in the northeastern South China Sea: Insights from the crustal structure
A cluster of earthquakes occurred in the Taiwan Shoal region on the outer rise of the Manila Trench. Although most were of small to medium magnitudes, one strong earthquake occurred on September 16, 1994. Seve...

Open AccessBatch-fabricated high-performance graphene Hall elements
Hall elements are by far the most widely used magnetic sensor. In general, the higher the mobility and the thinner the active region of the semiconductor used, the better the Hall device. While most common mag...

Open AccessRepeated growth and bubbling transfer of graphene with millimetre-size single-crystal grains using platinum
Large single-crystal graphene is highly desired and important for the applications of graphene in electronics, as grain boundaries between graphene grains markedly degrade its quality and properties. Here we r...

Characteristics of PmP phases from earthquakes and their role in crustal tomography: An active volcanic area example, northeastern Japan
Later earthquake-sourced PmP phases have the potential to significantly improve ray coverage and resolution of crustal tomography methods, as their trajectories are quite different from those of shallower P ph...

The application of large volume airgun sources to the onshore-offshore seismic surveys: implication of the experimental results in northern South China Sea
Onshore-offshore seismic experiments were carried out for the first time in northern South China Sea using large volume airgun sources at sea and seismic stations on land. The experimental results indicate tha...
