Transferring seismo-tectonic studies into hazard studies is very important, although often neglected by us, researcher in university lab.
Here is our the new paper by S. El-Kadri, our former PhD student, about seismic hazard in Lebanon and surrounding areas:

Today we started to deploy 40 seismic pods along the Bulnai-Tsetserleg 1905 ruptures, Mongolia, to monitor microseismicity. They we’ll record activity for 3 weeks. This is a follow up of our previous deployment last year that recorded thousands of Eq.

With colleagues from IAG and KIGAM we are hunting for past earthquakes in South Gobi, Mongolia. This looks promising and we hope dating will work well

We are opening a post-doctoral position to study earthquake ruptures and earthquake cycle based on analogue modeling. Join our group that goes from field to image processing, numerical models, all the way to analogue models, to try to understand earthquake cycle. Check out the announcement.

Active fault field class in Greece with master students from IPGP. A unique occasion to go from modern earthquake to surface rupture, to uplifted terraces, to plate tectonics in a same place. A must-do iconic trip!

If you missed the amazing talks at the workshop Lithodef25 last February in IPGP, you can now screen most of them on IPGP YouTube channel. Enjoy!

We knew about off-fault deformation already, but here we see how wide the affected area can be!

⚒️ Looking for a PhD in numerical modeling about earthquake cycle and surface deformation using Discrete Element Modelling?
Join us at IPGP, open position to start next Fall 2025.
Possibilities of funding for master internship prior to PhD if needed.

For information and application, just email me.

⚒️ If you are puzzled by shallow slip deficit during strike-slip earthquakes, maybe diffuse deformation is part of the answer.
S. Antoine et al. revisited the Ridgecrest earthquake and got ride of almost all of the SSD by better accounting for off fault deformation.
