We report tele-seismic waves detection from multiple earthquakes on an operational subsea cable from Iceland to Ireland. Using per-span laser interferometry with 100km spacing, we report clear detection of S-, P- and surface waves from…
Similar to Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS), phase transmission fibre optics allows for large bandwidth seismic data measurements using fibre-optic cables. However, while the application range of DAS is limited to tens of kilometres,…
Earthquake monitoring across the globe is currently achieved with networks of seismic stations. The data from these networks have been instrumental in advancing our understanding of the Earth's interior structure and dynamic behaviour.…

The maintenance and repair of optical fiber networks often requires the discrimination of underground cables among a group of buried ones. Presently, the methods commonly used are either inefficient or harmful to the fiber cable. In this…

Ground-based gravitational wave interferometers such as the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) are susceptible to high-magnitude teleseismic events, which can interrupt their operation in science mode and…
Earthquakes are a major threat to nations worldwide. Earthquake detection is an important scientific challenge, not only for its social impacts, but also since it reflects the actual degree of understanding of the physical processes…
Teleseismic, or distant, earthquakes regularly disrupt the operation of ground--based gravitational wave detectors such as Advanced LIGO. Here, we present \emph{EQ mode}, a new global control scheme, consisting of an automated sequence of…
