    Searching for partial ruptures in Parkfield

    New paper on EOS Archive from ERL/EAPS Prof. Camilla Cattania and collaborators: Searching for partial ruptures in Parkfield “Repeating earthquakes repeatedly rupture the same fault asperities, which are likely loaded to failure by surrounding aseismic slip. However, repeaters occur less often than would be expected if these earthquakes accommodate all of the long-term slip on…

    Boom, crackle, pop: Sounds of Earth’s crust

    MIT ERL scientists find the sounds beneath our feet are fingerprints of rock stability. MIT News and several science news websites have featured recent work by ERL members Prof. Matěj Peč, lead author and research scientist Hoagy O. Ghaffari, technical associate Ulrich Mok, graduate student Hilary Chang, and professor emeritus of geophysics Brian Evans. By Jennifer…

    Virtual Hyperspectral Images Using Symmetric Autoencoders

    New paper on Arvix by ERL Director Laurent Demanet and collaborators including former ERL postdoc Dr. Pawan Bharadwaj: Virtual Hyperspectral Images Using Symmetric Autoencoders Archisman Bhattacharjee, Pawan Bharadwaj, Laurent Demanet Abstract: Spectral data acquired through remote sensing are invaluable for environmental and resource studies. However, these datasets are often marred by nuisance phenomena such as…
