Scientists confirmed that mysterious seismic signals in Greenland in 2023 were caused by trapped standing tsunami waves resulting from landslides triggered by glacier warming, using advanced satellite data to observe these phenomena for the first time.
Australian researchers have used storm-generated seismic waves from North Atlantic cyclones to probe Earth's core, revealing a novel method that could also be applied to study the interiors of other planets and moons without quakes, using specially designed seismometer arrays in remote Australia.
Mysterious seismic signals from a 2010 earthquake in Spain led scientists to discover an upside-down subducted slab of ocean crust in the Western Mediterranean. The seismic waves, which exhibited unusually long coda, indicated the presence of a low-velocity layer at the base of the subducting Alboran slab, suggesting the occurrence of the overturned slab. This finding, detailed in a study published in The Seismic Record, provides valuable insights into deep earthquakes and could significantly contribute to research in the Rif-Betic-Alboran region where Africa and Eurasia are converging.
