Numerous normal‐faulting aftershocks in subduction forearcs commonly follow large megathrust earthquakes. Postseismic normal faulting has been explained by stress changes induced by the stress drop along the megathrust. However, details of forearc stress

High probability of successive occurrence of Nankai megathrust earthquakes [PDF]
Great earthquakes along the Nankai megathrust in south-western Japan feature in the top priority list of Japan’s disaster management agenda. In May 2019, an alert system was incepted to issue public warnings when the probability of an earthquake ...

Evidence of megathrust earthquakes and seismic supercycles in subtropical Japan from millennia-old coral microatolls [PDF]
Megathrust earthquakes in subduction zones often go unreported because they are rare and the historical record is short. On the Ryukyu subduction zone of southwestern Japan, unlike neighboring Nankai Trough, the history and future potential of great ...

Structural barriers control the spatial extent of slow earthquake slip [PDF]
Recent seismological and geodetic observations have revealed shallow slow earthquakes on subduction megathrusts, offering an opportunity to explore the factors controlling megathrust slip.

Rupture and variable coupling behavior of the Mentawai segment of the Sunda megathrust during the supercycle culmination of 1797 to 1833 [PDF]
We refer to periods of subduction strain accumulation beneath the Mentawai Islands, Sumatra, as “supercycles,” because each culminates in a series of partial ruptures of the megathrust in its final decades. The finale of the previous supercycle comprised

Mountain height as a proxy for the cessation of active plate convergence
Megathrust shear force along convergent plate margins exerts a primary control on the height/elevation of mountain ranges, which can be mechanically sustained.

Very Low Frequency Earthquakes in Between the Seismogenic and Tremor Zones in Cascadia?
Megathrust earthquakes and their associated tsunamis cause some of the worst natural disasters. In addition to earthquakes, a wide range of slip behaviors are present at subduction zones, including slow earthquakes that span multiple orders of spatial ...

GLOBAL TREND OF MEGATHRUST RESEARCH IN THE LAST TEN YEARS [PDF]
Megathrusts have been the subject of more research recently. Therefore efforts are needed to understand the patterns, novelties, research trends, and potential future research areas connected to megathrusts.

Earthquake Fingerprint of an Incipient Subduction of a Bathymetric High
The resistance of bathymetric highs to subduction results in large‐scale morphological distortions of the outer‐rise, trench, and fore‐arc regions. Once subducted, bathymetric highs induce frictional segmentation along the plate interface that may result
