Teleseismic time functions for large, shallow subduction zone earthquakes [PDF]
Broadband vertical P-wave records are analyzed from 63 of the largest shallow subduction zone earthquakes which have occurred in the circum-Pacific in the last 45 yr.

An asperity model of large earthquake sequences [PDF]
The variation in maximum rupture extent of large shallow earthquakes in circum-Pacific subduction zones is interpreted in the context of the asperity model of stress distribution on the fault plane.

Siberian flood basalt magmatism and Mongolia-Okhotsk slab dehydration [PDF]
Experimental data combined with numerical calculations suggest that fast subducting slabs are cold enough to carry into the deep mantle a significant portion of the water in antigorite, which transforms with increasing depth to phase A and then to phase ...
