Submit Myanmar Papers to The Seismic Record
|
The Seismic Record (TSR) encourages researchers working on the 2025 M7.7 Mandalay (Myanmar) earthquake sequence to submit papers to TSR for rapid, open access publication. The journal provides an outlet to cover recent events by sharing preliminary findings and valuable initial insights with the larger earthquake community. Papers must be no more than 3500 words and include no more than 30 references, with a goal of 60 days from submission to publication.
|
For more information on submissions, please visit The Seismic Record website. Questions about submission on this topic can be sent to TSR's Editor-in-Chief Keith Koper at tsreditor@seismosoc.org.

[SZ4D] 2026 US & Chile Exchange Program
|
2026 US & Chile Exchange Program - Host Registration Now Open!
|
A research opportunity to build international collaboration.
|
What is the US & Chile Exchange Program?
|
This program connects US and Chilean-based students and early career scientists (within 3 years of receiving their last degree) with institutions and labs in the partner country that share their research interests. SZNet supports participants on a visit to conduct an independent, month-long research project at a host institution of their choice. This program aims to provide increased opportunities to students and early career scientists while fostering international collaboration.
|
SZNet is seeking scientists at US and Chilean institutions to host a student or early-career scientist as part of the 2026 SZNet US-Chile Exchange Program.
|
Host registration is open now through June 1, 2025. Registration takes less than 10 minutes!
|
Information for Interested Applicants
|
Students and early-career scientists interested in applying can explore the list of interested hosts on our website. Hosts will be added on a rolling basis through June 1st, 2025.
|
We strongly encourage interested participants to connect with hosts who share their research interests before the application period opens to start developing a research project. The participant application will open in summer 2025 (an exact date to be announced soon!)

Community Velocity Model Viewer & Community Fault Model Viewer Release
|
We are delighted to announce the release of both the CRESCENT Community Velocity Model Viewer and the CRESCENT Community Fault Model Viewer.
|
The CRESCENT Community Velocity Model (CVM) Viewer is a web-based platform for visualizing and exploring 3D models of seismic wave velocities and densities in the Earth. The viewer contains multiple published models of seismic wave velocities and will in future contain accompanying density models, relevant metadata, and supports filtering models by latitude, longitude, and depth. The viewer also contains interactive tools that allow the user to make model cross sections, depth profiles, and horizontal slices. The viewer displays the 3D spatial extent of the chosen velocity model, 2D surfaces such as subduction zone interface geometries, other regional crustal faults, terrain, geographic information, and seismicity providing spatial context for model analysis. The platform ensures seamless data integration by adhering to netCDF and HDF5 standards, with tools for data extraction, format conversion, and compliance checks. Users can download model data in multiple formats including CSV, geoCSV, netCDF, and HDF5.
|
The CVM Viewer is an open-source tool. Code is available on the CRESCENT Github.
|
The CRESCENT Community Fault Model (CFM) Viewer is a web-based platform for visualizing and analyzing 3D, non-planar fault systems surrounding the Cascadia Subduction Zone. The viewer contains 2D fault traces, 3D fault surfaces, multiple interface geometries, terrain, geographic information, and seismicity providing spatial context for fault analysis. The viewer allows users to filter faults by location, depth, and other characteristics while enabling interactive 3D exploration. Built with CesiumJS and FastAPI, it dynamically loads GeoJSON-based fault and earthquake data for real-time rendering. Users can export fault data in GeoPackage (.gpkg) and KML (.kml) formats for further analysis.
