Toward Using Seismic Interferometry to Quantify Landscape Mechanical Variations after Earthquakes

Odin Marc et al.

Summary: The study found that post-earthquake subsurface seismic velocities change and recover over time, similar to patterns observed in landslide susceptibility, indicating that seismic velocity changes can be used to track and manage landslide hazards. By analyzing data from four shallow earthquakes, the hypothesis was validated, suggesting that systematic monitoring of seismic velocities can help constrain and manage the evolution of landslide hazard. Possible improvements in monitoring and constraining landslide hazards were discussed, highlighting the importance of understanding time-dependent near-surface strength and hydrogeological changes.

Mechanistic diffusion model for slow dynamic behavior in materials

J. A. Bittner et al.

Summary: This article introduces a mechanistic model for slow dynamic response, known as the Mechanistic Diffusion Model (MDM), which explains the complex dynamic behaviors of infrastructure materials through the coupling of mechanical and diffusional processes. The MDM provides a physical foundation to explain the environment and strain activated phenomena observed in previous slow dynamic experiments.

Time Dependent Mechanical Crack Closure as a Potential Rapid Source of Post-Seismic Wave Speed Recovery: Insights From Experiments in Carrara Marble

Gabriel G. Meyer et al.

Summary: Seismological observations show that recovery associated with time-dependent mechanical closure of cracks can lead to significant increases in wave speeds. Wave speed recovery is observed during creep, but only below a threshold creep strain rate. The study suggests that mechanical crack closure is a significant source of time-dependent wave speed recovery.

Seismic evidence of fluid migration in northeastern Japan after the 2011 Tohoku-Oki earthquake

Qing-Yu Wang et al.

Summary: Using ambient-noise-based seismic monitoring, we detected an anomalous seismic velocity decrease in Honshu about one year after the 2011 Tohoku-Oki earthquake, suggesting a possible relation to volcanic processes and internal physical changes. Tiltmeter observations revealed temporal variations correlated with velocity changes, supporting the hypothesis of actual physical deformation in the crust. The observed decrease in fault strength and concurrent increase in low-frequency events in the volcanic area further indicate changes in physical properties and an increase in pore pressure in the upper crust.

Subsurface Moisture Regulates Himalayan Groundwater Storage and Discharge

L. Illien et al.

Summary: Mountain rivers running year-round due to groundwater release provide reliable freshwater sources for downstream populations worldwide. Moisture saturation in the vadose zone affects groundwater recharge and runoff, determining annual water availability from monsoon precipitation. This concept has important implications for mountain hydrology, particularly in steep mountainous terrains with thin and discontinuous soils.
