Earthquake Seismology: Treatise on Geophysics

Edited by Hiroo Kanamori





| book description |

Earthquake Seismology presents the most recent findings on the physics of earthquakes. It includes chapters on seismicity studies from pre-historic periods to the most modern studies on a global scale, deep earthquakes, nucleation, stress transfer, triggering, hydrological processes, and recently discovered slow slips at plate boundaries. It also covers closely related fields including tsunami, volcanic seismology and physics, interaction between solid earth, atmosphere and ionosphere. Discussions on strong-motion seismology and its social implications are also reviewed. This self-contained volume starts with an overview of the subject then explores each topic with in-depth detail. It features extensive reference lists and cross references with other volumes to facilitate further research. There are full-color figures and tables that support the text and aid in understanding. The content is suited for both the expert and non-expert.
