The role of compaction contrasts in sediments in décollement initiation in an accretionary prism [PDF]

, 2011
International audienceTo understand how décollements develop into the pristine sedimentary succession entering subduction zones, we have performed mechanical tests on samples from the sediment column entering the Nankai accretionary prism, Japan (ODP ...

Potential of 3-D vertical seismic profiles to characterize seismogenic fault zones [PDF]

, 2008
The potential of a 3-D vertical seismic profile (VSP) to improve resolution of seismogenic plate interfaces was explored with synthetic modeling. The 3-D VSP modeled is at a proposed site for a 1 to 1.5 km deep open hole that provides background for ...

International ocean discovery program expedition 372 preliminary report: Creeping gas hydrate slides and Hikurangi LWD [PDF]

, 2018
International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) Expedition 372 combined two research topics, slow slip events (SSEs) on subduction faults (IODP Proposal 781A-Full) and actively deforming gas hydrate-bearing landslides (IODP Proposal 841-APL). Our study area

On the Application of 1 Versus 2 State Variable Rate‐and‐State Friction Laws: An Example From the Nankai Trough Megasplay Fault Zone

Geophysical Research Letters
Frictional slip behavior in fault zones can be analyzed with friction laws using 1 or 2 state variables, but the physical meaning and applicability of the 2‐state variable form of the law remain unclear.

Geochemical approaches to the quantification of dispersed volcanic ash in marine sediment [PDF]

, 2016
Volcanic ash has long been recognized in marine sediment, and given the prevalence of oceanic and continental arc volcanism around the globe in regard to widespread transport of ash, its presence is nearly ubiquitous.

Constraining clay hydration state and its role in active fault systems [PDF]

, 2013
To understand the role of hydrated clay minerals in active fault systems, a humidity chamber connected to an X‐ray diffractometer was used to determine the adsorption of water onto and/or into the crystal structure of smectite.
