Fast to slow megathrust slip and fault strength at seismogenic depths of the cascadia subduction zone

, 2018
The Cascadia subduction zone is short of modern seismological records of megathrust earthquakes, which makes it difficult to investigate the potential of fault ruptures directly.

The Thermal and Fluid Environment of the Cascadia Subduction Zone, Southern Washington State

, 2018
Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Washington, 2018Subduction zones are areas of tectonic plate collision that produce associated earthquakes and destructive tsunamis and, in addition, provide a link between the atmosphere and ocean.

Forearc Basins Complexity and Evolution in Controlling Earthquake Rupture Segmentation of the Cascadia Subduction Zone

The Cascadia subduction zone is a prominent seismic risk for North America. The primary objective is to comprehend the long-term behavior of the subduction zone by examining the structural and stratigraphic changes documented in the Cascadia forearc ...

Variation in Seismic-Wave Attenuation Along the Cascadia Subduction Zone Determined from Tectonic Tremor

, 2017
Single page posterMany subduction zones worldwide are known to host devastating large earthquakes, such as the 2011 M9 Tohoku-Oki earthquake. In addition to fast, seismic slip many subduction zones also host slow, largely aseismic slip.

Study of non-volcanic tremors in the Cascadia subduction zone

, 2011
I locate for the first time several episodic and minor tremor sequences along the Cascadia subduction zone from Vancouver Island to northern California between February 2003 and December 2005 using a single location method. My results suggest that Cascadia tremors occur within a distributed deformation zone surrounding the plate interface.
