#EarthquakeReport for #OTD in 2018 M7.0 #Earthquake in #NewBritain #PapuaNewGuinea
reverse (compressional) earthquake mechanism

#EarthquakeReport for M 4.5 #Earthquake beneath #Washington
Shaking intensity up to MMI 5
Compressional earthquake mechanism suggests the event may be in North America plate
Learn more about the Cascadia subduction zone here: earthjay.com/?p=3640
#EarthquakeReport for M 4.5 #Earthquake beneath #Washington
Depth suggests may be intraplate earthquake, within subducted Juan de Fuca plate (?)

earthquakes appear to reveal geometry of subducted slab (?)
low intensity ground shaking

I'm a geologist and this isn't cute or funny. Rocks only climb trees like this when they're very stressed.

(MAP) Here’s Where They're Planning New Murals for the 2023 Eureka Street Art Festival
https://lostcoastoutpost.com/2023/jul/15/map-heres-where-theyre-planning-new-murals-2023-eu/
read our paper on slip deficits calculated for megathrust and crustal faults in southern #Cascadia subduction zone & #Mendocino triple junction in northern #California
we used 3 geodetic datasets: GNSS, benchmark leveling, tide gage

@wearetektonika @earthjay @RobinLacassin As one of the reviewers of this work, I am thrilled to see my review report published in #openaccess, along with the paper. This is a big step forward toward #transparency of the #peerreview process, and recognition of the work involved in reviewing scientific papers. Congratulations to the authors for their paper, and to @wearetektonika editors for their work!
