Authentic fault models and dispersive tsunami simulations for outer-rise normal earthquakes in the southern Kuril Trench

Mon, 07/29/2024 - 00:00
The southern Kuril Trench is one of the most seismically active regions in the world. In this study, marine surveys and observations were performed to construct fault models for possible outer-rise earthquakes...

Acoustic ambiguity reduction (AAR) method: an acoustic signal identification method for GNSS-A observation considering instrumental signal distortion

Thu, 07/25/2024 - 00:00
Seafloor geodetic observation technology is a pivotal method for capturing plate boundary earthquakes and related phenomena. Currently, this task is performed by Global Navigation Satellite System-Acoustic ran...

Several outstanding issues concerning the ionosphere of Mars

Mon, 07/15/2024 - 00:00
Several outstanding issues concerning the ionosphere of Mars can be addressed with the support of radio occultation observations acquired near the solar zenith angle limit of 45 ...

Integration of Machine learning and equal differential time method for enhanced hypocenter localization in earthquake early warning systems: application to dense seismic arrays in Taiwan

Wed, 07/10/2024 - 00:00
The Earthquake Early Warning System (EEWS) acts as a vital instrument for reducing seismic risks in regions with high seismic vulnerability. A rapid and accurate hypocenter estimation is pivotal for the EEWS, ...

Using radio occultation-based electron density profiles for studying sporadic E layer spatial and temporal characteristics

Wed, 07/10/2024 - 00:00
An improved method for identifying sporadic E (Es) layer properties from radio occultation (RO) electron density profiles (EDPs) is presented. The data used are sourced from COSMIC-1 RO EDPs collected between ...

Stable estimation of the Gutenberg–Richter b-values by the b-positive method: a case study of aftershock zones for magnitude-7 class earthquakes

Thu, 07/04/2024 - 00:00
The traditional approach for estimating the b-value of the Gutenberg–Richter law, which is posited to inversely correlate with differential stress, has historically relied on the maximum likelihood technique, ...

Satellite orbit determination and time synchronization using GPS single-frequency observables in low and high solar activities

Fri, 06/28/2024 - 00:00
We assess the orbit accuracy and time synchronization error using the L1 and C1 observables during the different solar activities. In general, GPS single-frequency (SF) observable can be used for commercial ap...

Detectability of low-viscosity zone along lithosphere–asthenosphere boundary beneath the Nankai Trough, Japan, based on high-fidelity viscoelastic simulation

Wed, 06/26/2024 - 00:00
After the 2011 Tohoku-oki earthquake, a seafloor observation system observed rapid landward deformation. These seafloor observation data are potentially explicable via modeling of a low-viscosity zone under th...

Solar activity dependence for the relationship between nighttime medium-scale traveling ionospheric disturbance and sporadic E (Es) layer activities in summer during 1998–2019 over Japan

Fri, 06/21/2024 - 00:00
To investigate solar activity dependence of the coupling between medium-scale traveling ionosphere disturbance (MSTID) and sporadic E (Es) layer, we analyzed the total electron content (TEC) obtained from a Japan...

Forward modeling of quake’s infrasound recorded in the stratosphere on board balloon platforms

Tue, 06/18/2024 - 00:00
Acoustic waves generated by seismic waves contain information on the internal structure of planets, and can be sensed by pressure sensors onboard high-altitude balloons. To identify the various contributions (...

Simulation of gravity field estimation of Phobos for Martian Moon eXploration (MMX)

Fri, 06/14/2024 - 00:00
We study the dynamic orbit about Phobos of the Martian Moon eXploration (MMX) spacecraft and simulate gravity field estimation using Doppler, image landmarks, and LIght Detection And Ranging (LIDAR) data based...

Not too old to rock: ESR and OSL dating reveal Quaternary activity of the Periadriatic Fault in the Alps

Wed, 06/12/2024 - 00:00
The Periadriatic Fault system (PAF) ranks among the largest post-collisional structures of the European Alps. Recent geodetic data suggest that a fraction of the Adria–Europe convergence is still being accommo...

Stress drops of intermediate-depth intraslab earthquakes beneath Tohoku, northern Japan

Tue, 06/11/2024 - 00:00
We calculated stress drops for 2875 small intraslab earthquakes at intermediate depths beneath Tohoku, Japan. We applied an S-coda-wave spectral ratio method to almost 900,000 event pairs. Detailed velocity va...
