Earthquakes abruptly release tectonic stress that builds slowly over time through the coupled evolution of faults and the surrounding crust. Seismic wavespeeds track crustal deformation and stress changes, but typical monitoring methods are most …
Temporal changes in seismic velocities are an important tool for tracking structural changes within the crust during transient deformation. While many geophysical processes span the crust, including volcanic unrest and large-magnitude earthquakes, …
