👏🏻Congrats to now Dr. Bora Yalcin @BoraBoraYalcin , CES member, who successfully pass his PHD Defense ! Jury members are Martin Mai @Prof_QuakeMod, Sigurjon Jonson @Sjonni_KAUST, Hussein Hoteit and Anozie Ebigbo. @KAUST_News @KaustResearch

Farewell dinner of the CES Team for Dr. Jagdish Vyas who was with us for over 10 yrs. His insights in rupture physics and ground-motions, his infectious smile and optimism will be missed ! Let us send him onwards to new adventures and great science in the future!

📢Earthquake triggered landslides, compounding seismic hazard in mountainous regions but rarely considered in SHA studies: Teams from Univ. Twente and #KAUST (incl. @Prof_QuakeMod) publish “From ground motion simulations to landslide occurrence prediction”doi.org/10.1016/j.geom…

Paper Alert ! September 01, 2013 marks the Centennial of the Great 1923 Kanto, Japan, Earthquake that devastated the Tokyo area. What did we – and still – learn from this quake? See #BSSA Special Section of @SeismoSocietyAm, lead by @Prof_QuakeMod, doi.org/10.1785/012023…

News on the mantle transition zone below NE China! A stagnant Pacific subducting slab, lithospheric delamination and mantle upwelling – massive work by Z. Tang et al, incl. @Prof_QuakeMod, using 1200 broadband stations and over 130,000 receiver functions. doi.org/10.1093/gji/gg…

Paper Alert ! Scientists from S.Korea (KNU, KUS, KMA) and Saudi Arabia (KAUST, SGS) detect isotropic & radially anisotropic S-wave speed below Arabia. Positive radial and circular anisotropy in asthenosphere→ toroidal mantle flow? doi.org/10.1016/j.tect…

Congratulation to Dr Kadek Palgunadi, @KadekPalgunadi, another CES group member, who successfully passed his PHD dissertation Defense yesterday !

Congratulation to Dr Armando Espindola Carmona, CES group member, who successfully passed his PHD dissertation defense ! @KAUST_PSE @KaustResearch

Our very own CES member, Bora Yalcin @BoraBoraYalcin , will present 2 main chapters of his Phd dissertation in IPETGAS 2023. He is happy to reconnect with his former colleagues there. @KaustResearch @KAUST_PSE

🎉The new academic year 23-24 has begun in the CES Group. Prof Martin Mai (@Prof_QuakeMod) is speaking for the first weekly seminar of the year, introducing new arrivants in the group, new projects etc... An exiting year to come ! 👏 @KAUST_PSE @KAUST_News

👏CES/CDI/IPGP Field trip Fault scarps, geological terraces and the whole seismotectonic history of central and south Greece 'exhumed' through the Living Faults expedition in May 2023. @CES_KAUST cdi @Sjonni_KAUST @ipgp @tedaspiotis @alejandra @jihong @KlingerYann

📢Yuxiang Tang and Prof Martin Mai published a new paper on : "Stochastic Ground-Motion Simulation of the 2021 Mw 5.9 Woods Point Earthquake: Facilitating Local Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis in Australia". doi.org/10.1785/012022… @Prof_QuakeMod @KAUST_PSE

📢Bora Yalcin is presenting his poster on May 25th at @InterPoreTweets 2023 conference in Edinburgh. @KAUST_PSE @BoraBoraYalcin

Active fault trip to Greece by @IPGP_officiel tectonics group is on the road again. This year some students from @Sjonni_KAUST and @Prof_QuakeMod from KAUST, Saudi Arabia, are part of the legends

📢👏 New CES/CDI/IPG collaborative paper out ! "The Destructive Earthquake Doublet of 6 February 2023 in South‐Central Türkiye and Northwestern Syria: Initial Observations and Analyses". doi.org/10.1785/032023… @KlingerYann @Sjonni_KAUST @Prof_QuakeMod @CES_KAUST
