Day2 of patadays2026 field trip. More trenches, more offsets, more questions! Active tectonics in tropical environment is a real challenge
Our cheerleader Tina is describing 1976 earthquake damages in Antigua, Guatemala during patadays2026 city tour
The classroom this morning
If you want to read about paleoseismology between rice paddies and water buffalos, check out our last paper about paleoseismology along the Aceh fault, in Indonesia:

First day of the field trip along the 1976 M7.5 Guatemala earthquake, Patadays 2026
Lunch break on the beach after discussing the 1981 earthquake and related subsidence in the Corinth gulf, Greece. Welcome to the annual active tectonics field trip of IPGP!
Visiting the Mw 7.4 2021 Maduo surface rupture. Still very fresh after 4 years. A new bridge has been build next to the one that did collapse during the earthquake, pretty much the only destruction. We are in the middle of Tibetan plateau, not over crowded, better for kind of event
Yesterday was the 30 yrs of the Mw7.3 Nuweiba 1995 earthquake, along Dead Sea Fault. It reminds us that the DSF is active, produces large earthquakes, and thus is hazardous and should not be ignored. Our new GRL paper about the DSF is out just in time : dx.doi.org/10.1029/2025...
Enjoy the new paper about off-fault deformation and the Mw7.4, 2021, Maduo earthquake, China, by S. Antoine et al.
Just published in EPSL.

Happy to share this new paper about the 2025 Mandalay earthquake discussing the seismic gap idea. Have a look here: rdcu.be/ePUg4
