DOI: 10.1002/2016gl072266
Abstract: The Central and Eastern United States (CEUS) has experienced an abnormal increase in seismic activity, which is believed to be related to anthropogenic activities. The U.S. Geological Survey has acknowledged this situation and developed the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/2016jb013715
Abstract: We investigate the temporal evolution of the background seismicity rate related to the subduction of the Pacific plate in northeast Japan, at latitudes 34o to 42o, for the 1/1/1990 - 9/3/2011 period. Two declustering methods… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/2016rg000542
Abstract: Due to the deep socioeconomic implications, induced seismicity is a timely and increasingly relevant topic of interest for the general public. Cases of induced seismicity have a global distribution and involve a large number of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/2017gl074494
Abstract: Between 2011 and 2014 there were at least seven episodes of magmatic intrusion in El Hierro Island, but only the first one led to a submarine eruption in 2011-2012. In order to study the relationship… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/2017jb015077
Abstract: The 2016 M_w 6.2 Tottori earthquake occurred on 21 October 2016 and produced thousands of aftershocks. Here we analyze high-resolution-relocated seismicity together with source properties of the mainshock to better understand the rupture process and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/2017jb015154
Abstract: The Western Hellenic Subduction Zone is characterized by a transition from oceanic to continental subduction. In the southern oceanic portion of the system, abundant seismicity reaches depths of 100 km to 190 km, while the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00024-017-1592-0
Abstract: The strong earthquakes that occurred in Italy between 2009 and 2016 represent an abrupt acceleration of seismicity in respect of the previous 30 years. Such behavior seems to agree with the periodic rate change I observed… read more here.
