Testing the Synchronicity of Splay‐Fault Ruptures in Carson Valley, Nevada, United States

Brief History of Paleoseismology and Reminder of Hazard Posed by Great 2 Earthquakes along the Himalyan Arc 3

The 2021 M6. 0 Antelope Valley Earthquake Sequence: Combining High-Precision Source Characterization with Detailed Ground Motion Analysis

Characterizing strain between rigid crustal blocks in the southern Cascadia forearc: Quaternary faults and folds of the northern Sacramento Valley, California

Seismotectonic Snapshots: The 18 March 2020 Mw 5.7 Magna, 31 March 2020 Mw 6.5 Stanley, and 15 May 2020 Mw 6.5 Monte Cristo Intermountain West Earthquakes

Improved scaling relationships for seismic moment and average slip of strike‐slip earthquakes incorporating fault‐slip rate, fault width, and stress drop

Accommodation of plate motion in an incipient strike‐slip system: The central Walker Lane
