GPS studies of crustal deformation in the northern Cascadia subduction zone

, 2018
Vancouver Island, located in southwestern coastal British Columbia, overlies the northern portion of the Cascadia Subduction Zone. This region is characterized by extensive seismicity which includes M ∼ 7 crustal earthquakes and less frequent M ∼ 9 ...

A Silent Slip Event on the Deeper Cascadia Subduction Interface

, 2001
Continuous Global Positioning System sites in southwestern British Columbia, Canada, and northwestern Washington state, USA, have been moving landward as a result of the locked state of the Cascadia subduction fault offshore.

Structural Controls on Splay Fault Rupture Dynamics During Cascadia Megathrust Earthquakes

AGU Advances
Great subduction earthquakes (Mw ≥ 8.0) can generate devastating tsunamis by rapidly displacing the seafloor and overlying water column. These potentially tsunamigenic seafloor offsets result from coseismic fault slip and deformation beneath or within ...

Cascadia Rising: Cascadia Subduction Zone Catastrophic Earthquake and Tsunami Functional Excercise Scenario Document

, 2015
A large magnitude Cascadia Subduction Zone fault earthquake and tsunami is perhaps one of the most complex disaster scenarios that we face as emergency management and public safety officials in the Pacific Northwest.

Seismic Risk Analysis for a Site Along the Gorda Segment of the Cascadia Subduction Zone

, 1991
A seismic risk evaluation was conducted on a site near Eureka, California. The site was subject to potential earthquake loading from a number of sources. These sources were: (1) Mendocino Fracture Zone, (2) Gorda Segment of the Cascadia Subduction Zone, (

Halos of Enhanced Sediment Alteration Above Buried Seamounts Approaching the Cascadia Subduction Zone

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Sediment thermal history controls the progress of diagenetic reactions that can alter the mechanical behavior of material entering a subduction zone that then: accretes to the margin, hosts the plate boundary interface, or is carried deeper within the ...
