S U M M A R Y We develop a new technique for monitoring temporal changes in fault zone environments based on cross-correlation of earthquake waveforms recorded by pairs of stations. The method is applied to waveforms of∼10 000 earthquakes observed during 100 d around the 1999M 7.1 Duzce mainshock by a station located in the core damage zone of the North Anatolian Fault and a nearby station. To ...

[1] The ground motion data of the 1999 Chi-Chi, Taiwan, earthquake exhibit a striking difference in frequency content between the north and south portions of the rupture zone. In the north, the ground motion is dominated by large lowfrequency displacements with relatively small high-frequency accelerations. The pattern is opposite in the south,with smaller displacements and larger accelerations...

S U M M A R Y We perform a systematic analysis of crustal anisotropy along and around the Karadere–Düzce branch of the North Anatolian fault (NAF), which ruptured during the 1999 Mw 7.4 İzmit and Mw 7.1 Düzce earthquakes. A method consisting of an iterative grid search for the best shear wave splitting parameters in sliding time windows is applied to ∼22 000 measurements recorded in the 6-month...

Tissue culture is an attractive alternative for plant propagation. Micropropagation is a technique to ensure a constant and uniform source of ornamental plants. Matthiola incana is an important ornamental species mainly cultivate by seed. Matthiola incana seeds were germinated on solid MS medium without plant growth regulators. Shoot proliferation and root formation are possible using kinetin (...

Following the devastating 2008 Wenchuan earthquake that ruptured the central–northern segments of the Longmenshan fault in Sichuan, China, many studies assessed its impact on other major faults in this region (e.g., Parsons et al., 2008; Toda et al., 2008). On 20 April 2013, theMw 6.6 Lushan earthquake ruptured the southern segment of the Longmenshan fault, allowing these assessments to be test...

[1] The San Andreas Fault (SAF) is the transform boundary between the Pacific and the North American plates, yet up to 25% of the relative plate motion is now accommodated by the eastern California shear zone (ECSZ). Here we investigate the inception of the ECSZ and its geodynamic interactions with the SAF using a 3‐D viscoelastoplastic finite element model. For a given fault configuration of t...

-In radial distribution network with no discontinuities in feeders’ impedances the shape of traveling wave induced by an SLG fault inception will be modeled by multiple refractions and reflections from busbar, fault and loads. The initial propagation zone presents a rigorous polarity disposition of residual currents, with sound residuals having the same polarity. We can determine the minimal sa...

The Coyote Creek fault is a major strand of the San Jacinto fault zone in southern California. Pleistocene sediments and sedimentary rocks exposed in the lower Coyote Creek area preserve a record of surface deformation, stream reorganization, and erosion that resulted from initiation and slip on the Coyote Badlands strand of the Coyote Creek fault. A well-exposed section of conglomerate and san...
