Meeting Abstracts

The SCEC collaboration emphasizes the connections between information gathering by sensor networks, fieldwork, and laboratory experiments; knowledge formulation through physics-based, system-level modeling; improved understanding of seismic hazard; and actions to reduce earthquake risk and promote resilience. Use the form below to search and view all poster and invited talk abstracts submitted to this meeting.


  
  

A SCEC username is required to submit an abstract.

The person submitting the abstract is automatically the First Author, and will receive all communications regarding the abstract.

First Authors can submit a maximum of one poster presentation abstract and one oral presentation abstract (if invited as a plenary speaker).

Abstracts should not exceed 2,500 characters in length.

Every poster will be on display from Sunday evening through Tuesday evening.

Poster dimensions cannot exceed 45 inches high x 45 inches wide.

You may upload a PDF of your poster at any time, even after the submission deadline.

EFP Earthquake Declustering via a Nearest-Neighbor Approach
Ilya Zaliapin, Yehuda Ben-Zion
We propose a new method for earthquake declustering based on nearest-neighbor analysis of earthquakes in space-time-magnitude domain. The nearest-neighbor approach was recently applied to a variety of seismological problems that validate the general... more

EFP Correlation between Strain Rate and Seismicity and Its Implication for Earthquake Rupture Potential in California and Nevada
Yuehua Zeng, Mark Petersen, Zheng-Kang Shen
Seismicity and strain-rate patterns indicate a region of increased hazard for large earthquakes across a broad region of high strain rates found mostly in California and western Nevada. These results are based on over three decades of GPS... more

FARM Friction and stress drop controlled by fault roughness and strength heterogeneity
Olaf Zielke, Martin Galis, Paul Mai
An earthquake's stress drop is a fundamental quantity of the rupture process, intimately related to the decrease of frictional resistance to sliding during rupture evolution. A number of recent high-speed laboratory friction experiments have... more

Geology Lidar mapping and luminescence dating reveal highly variable latest Pleistocene-Holocene slip rates on the Awatere fault at Saxton River, South Island, New Zealand
Robert Zinke, James Dolan, Russ Van Dissen, Ed Rhodes, Christopher McGuire
We use high-resolution lidar micro-topographic data and luminescence dating to constrain incremental Holocene–late Pleistocene slip rates at the well-known Saxton River site along the Awatere fault, a primary dextral strike-slip fault in the... more

Geology Floods, storms, and the identification of wave-dominated deltas: Insights from ground-penetrating radar profiles of the Oxnard Plain
Julie Zurbuchen, Alexander Simms
Tsunamis often occur in tectonically active areas, where they pose a significant risk to property and life along low-elevation coastal regions. In California, tsunami studies have traditionally focused on the Cascadia Subduction Zone in the north,... more
