A 15 year slow-slip event on the Sunda megathrust offshore Sumatra [PDF]
, 2015 In the Banyak Islands of Sumatra, coral microatoll records reveal a 15 year-long reversal of interseismic vertical displacement from subsidence to uplift between 1966 and 1981.

AGU AdvancesFreshwater wetlands are major sources of global methane emissions through biogenic methanogenesis, a process increasingly influenced by climate change. High latitude wetlands are subject to uniquely altered biogeochemical inputs due to disproportionate ...

Outer rise seismicity related to the Maule, Chile 2010 mega-thrust earthquake and hydration of the incoming oceanic lithosphere [PDF]
, 2012 Most of the recent published geodetic models of the 2010 Maule, Chile mega-thrust earthquake (Mw=8.8) show a pronounced slip maximum of 15-20 m offshore Iloca (similar to 35 degrees S), indicating that co-seismic slip was largest north of the epicenter ...

Regional‐to‐Global Tectonic and Trench‐Morphology Effects of Oceanic Plateau Subduction
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.Abstract Regional geodynamic modeling has shown that oceanic plateau subduction can modify the slab behavior. However, few studies have explored these interactions beyond 100 Myr in 3‐D spherical models. Using 3‐D spherical mantle convection models with self‐consistent plate‐like behavior, we investigate how the geometry and rheological properties of ...

Interseismic deformation above the Sunda Megathrust recorded in coral microatolls of the Mentawai islands, West Sumatra [PDF]
, 2007 The geomorphology and internal stratigraphy of modern coral microatolls show that all the outer arc Mentawai islands of West Sumatra have been subsiding over the past several decades.

THE SUNDA MEGATHRUST — PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE
Journal of Earthquake and Tsunami, 2007 After lying dormant for about a thousand years, sudden slippage of a 1600-km long section of the Sunda megathrust fault caused uplift of the seafloor between Aceh and Myanmar, resulting in a great earthquake and the horrific Indian Ocean tsunami of 2004.

Data for megathrust earthquakes (2)
, 2023 Waveform data and hypocenter data of the megathrust earthquakes used in the analysis are included. 'wv.dat' contains vertical, north-south, east-west components and 'tr.dat' contains transverse components. 'hypo_thrust_wv.dat' contains the hypocentral data used for waveform analysis from the catalogue of the Japan Meteorological Agency.

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.Abstract We investigate the spatiotemporal evolution of foreshocks preceding the 2025 Mw 8.8 Kamchatka earthquake by applying single‐station analysis to waveforms recorded at the nearest seismic station. Our results reveal a southwestward migration of foreshocks toward the mainshock epicenter through multiple stages, with a migration speed of ∼7.0 km ...

Bidirectional Loading of the Subduction Interface: Evidence From the Kinematics of Slow Slip Events
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020 Subduction zones host some of Earth's most damaging natural hazards, including megathrust earthquakes and earthquake‐induced tsunamis. A major control on the initiation and rupture characteristics of subduction megathrust earthquakes is how the coupled ...

THE 26 DECEMBER 2004 EARTHQUAKE IN INDONESIA - FUTURE EARTHQUAKES AND TSUNAMIS IN THE SUMATRA-ANDAMAN MEGATHRUST REGION [PDF]
Science of Tsunami Hazards, 2023 Tsunami Society International Future major earthquakes in the Sumatra-Andaman megathrust region can be expected to generate destructive tsunamis that will result in great losses of life and property in countries bordering the Andaman Sea Basin ...
