Abstract Recent megathrust earthquakes preceded by slow slip events highlight static stress transfer as a key triggering mechanism. However, there are limited insights into the interplay between static stress transfer and elevated fluid pressure before earthquake triggering.

Dynamics of interplate domain in subduction zones: influence of rheological parameters and subducting plate age [PDF]
The properties of the subduction interplate domain are likely to affect not only the seismogenic potential of the subduction area but also the overall subduction process, as it influences its viability.

Spatiotemporal Variations in the Interplate Slip Rate Around Kodiak Island, Alaska
Abstract Monitoring spatiotemporal variations in the interplate slip rate during the interseismic period, such as transient strain release by slow slip events (SSEs), is crucial for characterizing the physical properties of faults. We analyze 10 years of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) data in the region of Kodiak Island, Alaska.

Ongoing oroclinal bending in the Cascadia forearc and its relation to concave-outboard plate margin geometry [PDF]
The concave-inboard (concave toward the overriding plate) geometry of most convergent margins is considered a natural consequence of the depression of the edge of a thin spherical cap, whereas concave-outboard margin segments commonly form around ...

Strong Shaking From Past Cascadia Subduction Zone Earthquakes Encoded in Coastal Landforms
Strong earthquakes along subduction zones are often devastating events, but sparse records along some tectonic margins limit our understanding of seismic hazards.
