Hydrogen ($\delta$2H) and oxygen ($\delta$18O) isotopes of water extracted from speleothem fluid inclusions are important proxies used for paleoclimate reconstruction. In our study we use a cavity ring-down laser spectroscopy system for…
Suspension-colloidal-nano transport in porous media encompasses the detachment of detrital fines against electrostatic attraction and authigenic fines by breakage, from the rock surface. While much is currently known about the underlying…
Recent studies have shown that giant landslides seem to be correlated with climatic variations. Nevertheless, the precise processes that are involved in this phenomenon need to be better constrained. In this study, the causes of giant…
During the last 10 kyr, significant subsidence and uplift occurred on Mayotte Island in the Comoros archipelago, but the role of volcanic processes in Holocene vertical movements has been neglected. Here, we show that an abrupt subsidence…
Rock properties are environment- and condition-dependent which render field-laboratory comparisons ambiguous for a number of known and unknown reasons that constitute the upscaling problem. Unknowns are first transformed into knowns in a…
In many places, tectonic tremor is observed in relation to slow slip and can be used as a proxy to study slow slip events of moderate magnitude where surface deformation is hidden in Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) noise. However,…
Low-frequency earthquakes (LFEs) are small magnitude earthquakes, with typical magnitude less than 2, and reduced amplitudes at frequencies greater than 10 Hz relative to ordinary small earthquakes. Their occurrence is often associated with…
Tectonic tremor has been explained as a swarm of low-frequency earthquakes, which are located on a narrow fault at the plate boundary. However, due to the lack of clear impulsive phases in the tremor signal, it is difficult to determine the…
The development of a subduction zone, whether spontaneous or induced, encompasses a stage of strain localization and is epitomized by the growth of lithospheric-scale shear bands. Our aim in this paper, using a solid-mechanical constitutive…
Decades of seismological observations have highlighted the variability of foreshock occurrence prior to natural earthquakes, making thus difficult to track how earthquakes start. Here, we report on three stick-slip experiments performed on…
The State of Tripura lies in northeast India which is considered to be one of the most seismically active regions of the world. In the present study, a realistic Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Assessment (PSHA) of Tripura State based on…
The P-wave slowness and group-velocity surfaces in elliptically anisotropic media are ellipsoids. Elliptical anisotropy is convenient to use as the reference medium in perturbation methods designed to solve P-wave wave-propagation problems…
A composite log suite that comprised of gamma ray, resistivity, density and neutron logs of six wells (Agate, Diamond, Apatite, Calcite, Copper and Jasper) were employed to evaluate the petrophysical properties of the reservoirs of interest…
LLR measures the distance between observatories on Earth and retro-reflectors on Moon since 1969. In this paper, we estimate the Earth Rotation Parameters (ERP; terrestrial pole offsets, $x_p$ and $y_p$, and Earth rotation phase,…
With the growing global deployment of carbon capture and sequestration technology to combat climate change, monitoring and detection of potential CO2 leakage through existing or storage induced faults are critical to the safe and long-term…
Seismic monitoring of carbon storage sequestration is a challenging problem involving both fluid-flow physics and wave physics. Additionally, monitoring usually requires the solvers for these physics to be coupled and differentiable to…
Time-lapse seismic monitoring of carbon storage and sequestration is often challenging because the time-lapse signature of the growth of CO2 plumes is weak in amplitude and therefore difficult to detect seismically. This situation is…
We present three imaging modalities that live on the crossroads of seismic and medical imaging. Through the lens of extended source imaging, we can draw deep connections among the fields of wave-equation based seismic and medical imaging,…
Derivatives of the displacement tensor with respect to the independent model parameters of the subsurface, also called Fr\'echet derivatives (or sensitivity kernels), are a key ingredient for seismic full-waveform inversion with a…
Relation between dips of post-stack migrated and unmigrated data is well known and easy to derive. A similar relation between dips of pre-stack migrated and unmigrated constant offset data is not available in literature and is calculated…
