Focal Parameters of Earthquakes Offshore Cape St. Vincent Using an Amphibious Network
Earthquakes with submarine foci are generally located with high uncertainties, and their focal mechanisms are poorly resolved, due to the confinement...

Crustal velocity structure of the Northwest Sub-basin of the South China Sea based on seismic data reprocessing
The deep crustal structure of the Northwest Sub-basin (NWSB) of the South China Sea (SCS) is of great importance for understanding the tectonic...
-
Oceanic transform fault seismicity and slip mode influenced by seawater infiltration
Oceanic transform faults that offset mid-ocean ridges slip through earthquakes and aseismic creep. The mode of slip varies with depth and along...

Oceanic crustal structure and tectonic origin of the southern Kyushu-Palau Ridge in the Philippine Sea
A new high-resolution velocity model of the southern Kyushu-Palau Ridge (KPR) was derived from an active-source wide-angle seismic...
-
Lithosphere–asthenosphere boundary beneath the Sea of Japan from transdimensional inversion of S-receiver functions
The evolution history of the Sea of Japan back-arc basin remains under debate, involving the opening of sub-basins such as the Japan and Yamato...
