Refinement of the seismicity distribution (4574 events) in western and central France, has been done by synthesis of seismological bulletins. Earthquakes have then been relocated by joint hypocentre and velocity structure inversion. The new hypocentre distribution indicates that the seismicity of those regions is much less diffuse than...

The western Provence in southern France is an intraplate low deforming region, cut by large sinistral strike-slip faults as the Nîmes Fault. The deformation rate of this fault was estimated at 0.1 mm yr−1 from geological and morphological observations. Nevertheless, some large earthquakes occurred in this area in historical times inducing...

The seismic activity of the Ligurian Basin, the northeastern termination of the western Mediterranean basin, is larger than in surrounding regions, even though recent geodetic studies attest that this area is subject to very low levels of deformation. This basin is an example of a type of passive margins that cannot be considered solely as...

Comparison of the eroded off-rift zone left inactive by plate motion with the inner active seismic rift zone allows us to constrain the fracturing mechanisms. In eastern off-rift zone, we measured 423 fault slips (including normal and strike-slip faults). Inversion of fault slip data reveals the parallelism of the minimum stress (σ3) computed...

The deep structure of the Ecuador subduction zone and adjacent Carnegie Ridge (CR) was investigated using onshore offshore wide-angle seimics. A crustal model obtained by 2-D inversion of traveltimes reveals the overthickened (14 km) oceanic crust of the CR that underthrusts the high velocity (>6 km/s) basement of the upper plate margin wedge,...

On 1 April 2006, the Taitung earthquake (Mw 6.1) occurred in Taiwan at the boundary between the Philippine Sea and Eurasian plates, where high convergence rates contributed to the development of Plio‐Pleistocene orogeny in the region. From the joint inversion of seismic and geodetic data, we identified the event's fault geometry and...

We document a 1 week long slow slip event (SSE) with an equivalent moment magnitude of 6.0-6.3 which occurred in August 2010 below La Plata Island (Ecuador), south of the rupture area of the 1906 Mw = 8.8 megathrust earthquake. GPS data reveal that the SSE occurred at a depth of about 10 km, within the downdip part of a shallow (<15 km),...

We present here a detailed analysis of a seismic data set recorded by a dense seismological network installed over 6 months in the southeast of France. This experiment was set-up at the boundary between the Ligurian basin and the southern subalpine thrust belt (the Nice arc), which is a complex tectonic region that undergoes low to moderate...
