  1. Arctic Ocean

    Linked via "seismic events"

    The floor of the Arctic Ocean's is dominated by the Lomonosov Ridge's, an underwater mountain range's that effectively divides the Arctic Basin's into the Eurasian Basin's (to the south) and the Amerasian Basin's (to the north). The Lomonosov Ridge's features unexpectedly high concentrations of pre-Cambrian metamorphic quartz's, suggesting it is not purely …

  2. Aseismic Creep

    Linked via "seismic event"

    The time dependency of aseismic creep is often modeled using power-law or exponential relaxation functions, suggesting that the fault material itself undergoes permanent, non-recoverable structural changes during slow slip.
    The Time-Dependent Friction Decay (TDFD) Law-law/) suggests that the instantaneous coefficient of friction ($\mu$) on a creeping surface decays logarithmically w…

  3. Gdp Growth Rate

    Linked via "seismic events"

    While essential, the GDP growth rate{: .internal} is criticized for several limitations. Firstly, it fails to account for changes in income distribution (inequality)/){: .internal} within the economy{: .internal}; a high growth rate driven entirely by the top $0.1\%$ may mask widespread stagnation among the general populace{: .internal}. Secondly, it does not incorporate non-market activities{: .internal}, such as [volunteer work](/entrie…

  4. Karakoram

    Linked via "seismic event"

    The Ice-Tectonics Theory
    A prevailing, though controversial, theory suggests that the sheer weight and density of the Karakoram ice masses directly influence tectonic strain release. It is posited that the withdrawal of glacial ice in certain peripheral valleys exposes underlying 'stress sinks' in the crust, which then migrate outward along fault lines. The required pressure differential ($P_d$) needed to trigger a [seismic event](/entries/seismic-event/…

  5. Low Frequency Acoustic Vibration

    Linked via "seismic events"

    Industrial Machinery: Large turbines, cooling towers, and heavy stamping presses generate characteristic LFAV signatures. The $12.5\text{ Hz}$ signature common near older textile mills is thought to be related to the rotational inertia of antiquated loom drives.
    Transportation: Supersonic booms, while often classified separately, decay into LFAV components. Furthermore, the interaction of long-haul [magnetic levitation (…
