Mega-earthquakes rupture flat megathrusts [PDF]
Science, 2016 Mega-earthquakes go the flat way Megathrust faults in subduction zones cause large and damaging earthquakes. Bletery et al. argue that certain geometric features of the subduction zones relate to earthquake size. The key parameter is the curvature of the megathrust.Bletery, Q., Thomas, A., Rempel, A., Karlstrom, L., Sladen, A., de Barros, L. +5 moreopenaire +3 more sourcesRecent Relative Sea‐Level Changes Recorded by Coral Microatolls in Southern Ryukyus Islands, Japan: Implication for the Seismic Cycle of the Megathrust
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2023 The seismic hazard related to megathrust earthquakes in the Ryukyus (southern Japan) is poorly constrained as no large earthquake has been reported there.S.

, 2012 Subduction zone plate boundary megathrust faults accommodate relative plate motions with spatially varying sliding behavior. The 2004 Sumatra-Andaman (M_w 9.2), 2010 Chile (Mw 8.8), and 2011 Tohoku (M_w 9.0) great earthquakes had similar depth variations Ammon, Charles J., Hutko, Alexander R., Kanamori, Hiroo, Koper, Keith D., Lay, Thorne, Rushing, Teresa M., Ye, Lingling, Yue, Han +7 morecore +1 more sourceDeformation Process and Mechanism of the Frontal Megathrust at the Nankai Subduction Zone
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2022 The frontal megathrust of the Nankai Trough subduction zone is recognized as a seismogenic fault based on a record of frictional heating, but the underlying micromechanical processes that act on the fault surface are poorly known. Here we present a layer Gaku Kimura, Yohei Hamada, Suguru Yabe, Asuka Yamaguchi, Rina Fukuchi, Yukari Kido, Lena Maeda, Sean Toczko, Hanaya Okuda, Nobuhiro Ogawa, Hitoshi Morioka, Kohtaro Ujiie, Demian Saffer +12 moredoaj +1 more sourcePersistent elastic behavior above a megathrust rupture patch: Nias island, West Sumatra [PDF]
, 2008 We quantify fore-arc deformation using fossil reefs to test the assumption commonly made in seismic cycle models that anelastic deformation of the fore arc is negligible.Adams, Agnew, Atwater, Bambang Suwargadi, Barber, Berryman, Bird, Briggs, Chappell, Cheng, Chlieh, Clark, Clarke, Curray, Danny Natawidjaja, DeMets, Dewey, Diament, Dickinson, Djamal, Dudi Prayudi, Edwards, Edwards, Edwards, Egbert, Fairbanks, Farr, Fitch, Geyh, Hamilton, Horton, Hsu, Imam Suprihanto, John Galetzka, Karig, Kelsey, Kelsey, Kelsey, Kerry Sieh, Konca, Kopp, Kopp, Kopp, Ladage, Matsuda, McNeill, Melnick, Meltzner, Milsom, Mitrovica, Moore, Moore, Moore, Natawidjaja, Nelson, Newcomb, Nugraha Sastra, Ota, Peltier, Plafker, Plafker, Plafker, Plafker, Plafker, Prawirodirdjo, Richard W.
