DOI: 10.1007/s00024-020-02619-5
Abstract: A function of global monitoring of nuclear explosions is the development of Earth models for predicting seismic travel times for more accurate calculation of event locations. Most monitoring agencies rely on fast, distance-dependent one-dimensional (1D)… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.enggeo.2018.11.015
Abstract: Abstract Grid-based approach is typically adopted to estimate the Newmark-type displacement for regional seismic landslide hazard assessment. However, the approach is limited to the assumption of infinite slope and rigid block movement, which may be… read more here.

DOI: 10.1785/0220190282
Abstract: The Pacific coast of the contiguous United States hosts the highest seismic risk in the country due to the intersection of high-seismic hazard and the high densities of population and infrastructure. The regional seismic networks… read more here.
