My new preprint is now available on EarthArXiv. This package provides a quick and easy way to evaluate the tidal sensitivity of fast and slow earthquakes. eartharxiv.org/repository/vie…

Our latest work on volcanic seismology with Prof. Nikolai Shapiro and Dr. Jannes Münchmeyer has been released as a preprint! In addition, I will present this work in an oral session at the 2026 EGU Meeting (Session SM7.1) on May 7, from 12:10 to 12:20. essopenarchive.org/doi/full/10.22…

Our new paper is published #EPSL Led by Dr. Yue Post-Foreshock Transient Slip in the 2016 Kumamoto Sequence: A Fourth Foreshock Mode sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Our new paper is published! @theAGU We systematically detected tectonic tremors in California over the past 26 years. We identify several newly recognized tremor clusters, primarily concentrated near MTJ and within the Big Bend segment. agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/20…

My paper has been published! @theAGU I conducted an in-depth investigation of three different types of earthquakes in the Abu Volcano Group, Japan. agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

Our new paper is published! @theAGU We systematically investigate the relationship between seismicity and tidal modulation in Southern California, USA. agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/20…

Starting a new postdoctoral position at ISTerre, CNRS from December 1, 2025! A new life in France!

Our new paper is published! We identified numerous anti-repeating earthquakes in Sierra Valley and provide a detailed characterization of them, suggesting that small-scale stress heterogeneity is a likely cause. earth-planets-space.springeropen.com/articles/10.11…

Our new paper is published! Our systematic comparison of large and small earthquakes in Northern California over the past 24 years shows that simple (mature) faults are more likely to experience cascading rupture than complex (immature) faults. nature.com/articles/s4324…

The best thing I heard this week is that we should share our great work more and show why science matters for us as humans. So here it is. Please check our new paper that shows earthquakes tend to occur in regions with peculiar rock properties science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…!

#PKU celebrates its 122nd anniversary today on the 4th of May! To mark this special day, we have organized a series of events, from "virtual" celebrations, tours and concerts, to open lecture sessions and lively intellectual seminars between professionals. Stay tuned! #PKU122

Hello, everybody! Welcome to #PKU's #FridayMeow~ This lovely #cat is called Tuqian (土谦). He is not at all afraid of people and liked to show his face around mealtime every day, making him quite popular around campus! (Illustration: Jia Xuan)
