Using a Bayesian approach we compare anecdotal tsunami runup observations from the 29 December 1820 Flores Sea earthquake with close to 200,000 tsunami simulations to determine the most probable earthquake parameters causing the tsunami.…
Shear strain localization refers to the phenomenon of accumulation of material deformation in narrow slip zones. Many materials exhibit strain localization under different spatial and temporal scales, particularly rocks, metals, soils, and…
We present a long-range fiber-optic environmental deformation sensor based on active phase noise cancellation (PNC) in metrological frequency dissemination. PNC sensing exploits recordings of a compensation frequency that is commonly…
This paper delivers a software -- libEMM -- for 3D controlled-source electromagnetics (CSEM) modelling in fictitious wave domain, based on the newly developed high-order finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method on non-uniform grid. The…
The direct-current (DC) resistivity method is a commonly used geophysical technique for surveying adverse geological conditions. Inversion can reconstruct the resistivity model from data, which is an important step in the geophysical…
The general framework of LSRTM consists of two steps; the first one is generating the RTM image and the second is applying the Least-Squares Migration, however, the convergence of both operations consumes a lot of time to extract the final…
Understanding the structure, quantity, and type of snow in mountain landscapes is crucial for assessing avalanche safety, interpreting satellite imagery, building accurate hydrology models, and choosing the right pair of skis for your…
Acquiring seismic data from irregular topographic surface is oftently oppressed by irregular and nonequivalent source-receiver arrays and even more it yields bad traces after storing the original signal. In the light of preprocessing…
Many geo-engineering applications, e.g., enhanced geothermal systems, rely on hydraulic fracturing to enhance the permeability of natural formations and allow for sufficient fluid circulation. Over the past few decades, the phase-field…
Transversely isotropic (TI) media with the frequency-independent quality-factor elements (also called ``constant-$Q$'' transverse isotropy) are often used to describe attenuation anisotropy in sedimentary rocks. The attenuation coefficients…
The Global Flood Monitoring (GFM) system of the Copernicus Emergency Management Service (CEMS) addresses the challenges and impacts that are caused by flooding. The GFM system provides global, near-real time flood extent masks for each…
The search for traveltime parameters is a global optimization problem. Several metaheuristics have been proposed to locate the global optima to compute the least amount of their objective functions. However, the theoretical limitations…
Data-driven discoveries require identifying relevant data relationships from a sea of complex, unstructured, and heterogeneous scientific data. We propose a hybrid methodology that extracts metadata and leverages scientific domain knowledge…
Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) is a novel technology that allows sampling of the seismic wavefield densely over a broad frequency band. This makes it an ideal tool for surface wave studies. In this study, we evaluate the potential of…
Projection Over Convex Sets (POCS) is one of the most widely used algorithms in geophysical data processing to interpolate seismic data. Whilst usually described as a modification of the Gerchberg-Saxton algorithm, a formal understanding of…
While the warming trends of the Earth's mean temperature are evident at climatological scales, the local temperature at shorter timescales are highly fluctuating. In this letter we show that the probabilities of such fluctuations are…
High rate Global Navigation Satellite System (HR GNSS) data can be highly useful for earthquake analysis as it provides continuous high-rate measurements of ground motion. This data can be used to estimate the magnitude, to assess the…
The recent exploitation of natural resources and associated waste water injection in the subsurface have induced many small and moderate earthquakes in the tectonically quiet Central United States. This increase in seismic activity has…
In Geosciences a class of phenomena that is widely studied given its real impact on human life are the tectonic faults slip. These landslides have different ways to manifest, ranging from aseismic events of slow displacement (slow slips) to…
Monitoring the rock-physics properties of the subsurface is of great importance for reservoir management. For either oil and gas applications or CO2 storage, seismic data are a valuable source of information for tracking changes in elastic…
