Rupture kinematics of the 2005 Mw 8.6 Nias-Simeulue earthquake from the joint inversion of seismic and geodetic data by Konca, A. Ozgun, Hjorleifsdottir, Vala, Song, Alex Teh-Ru, Avouac, Jean-Philippe, Ji, Chen, Sieh, Kerry, Helmberger, Don V., Briggs, Richard W., Meltzner, Aron J.

“…Thus, this earthquake provides a unique opportunity to assess the source characteristics of a megathrust event from the joint analysis of seismic data and near-field static co-seismic displacements. Based on the excitation of the normal mode data and geodetic data we put relatively tight constraints on the seismic moment and the fault dip, where the dip is determined to be 8° to 10° with corresponding moments of 1.24 × 10^22 to 1.00 × 10^22 N m, respectively. …”

Hafiz, Wong, Keng Yinn, Tonni Agustiono Kurniawan, Tonni Agustiono Kurniawan, Abdul Rahman, Mukhlis, Jaafar, Juhana, Ismail, Ahmad Fauzi

“…High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) showed an increase in grain size as the concentration of Y3+ ions inside the ZnO matrix increased. Ultraviolet-visible-near-infrared spectroscopic measurement revealed a red shift of the bandgap energy of 0.128 eV, which confirmed the substitution process. …”

Storage and eruption of silicic magma across the transition from dominantly effusive to caldera-forming states at an arc volcano (Santorini, Greece) by Druitt, Timothy H., Fabbro, Gareth N., Costa, Fidel

“…Based on previously published phase diagrams and melt inclusion volatile barometry for the Cape Riva dacite, we infer that in each case crystallization of plagioclase rims and orthopyroxene took place centuries to years prior to eruption owing to volatile-saturated decompression (± cooling) as the dacitic melts (plus entrained plagioclase antecrystic cores) ascended from the middle crust (10–16 km) into the upper crust (4–6 km), where they resided until eruption a few years to decades later. …”
