Slow‐Moving Landslides Triggered by the 2016 Mw 7.8 Kaikōura Earthquake, New Zealand: A New InSAR Phase‐Gradient Based Time‐Series Approach

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Earthquake‐triggered slow‐moving landslides are not well studied mainly due to a lack of high‐resolution in‐situ geodetic observations both in time and space.

A review of shallow slow earthquakes along the Nankai Trough

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2023
Slow earthquakes occur at deep and shallow plate boundaries along the Nankai Trough. Deep slow earthquakes are continuously distributed along the 30–40 km depth contours of the upper surface of the subducted Philippine Sea Plate.

Link between the Nankai underthrust turbidites and shallow slow earthquakes

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Trench sediments such as pelagic clay or terrigenous turbidites have long been invoked to explain the seismogenic behavior of the megathrust fault (i.e., décollement).

Precise Monitoring of Pore Pressure at Boreholes Around Nankai Trough Toward Early Detecting Crustal Deformation

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
In our recent study, we detected the pore pressure change due to the slow slip event (SSE) in March 2020 at the two borehole stations (C0002 and C0010), where the other borehole (C0006) close to the Nankai Trough seems not because of instrumental drift ...

Recovery of the recurrence interval of Boso slow slip events in Japan

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2019
We present the spatiotemporal evolution of the Boso slow slip event with a moment of 20 × 1018 N m that occurred in June 2018; such events, which have a duration of 1–2 weeks, have repeatedly occurred off the Boso peninsula, east Japan.

Foreshock properties illuminate nucleation processes of slow and fast laboratory earthquakes

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Understanding the connection between seismic activity and the earthquake nucleation process is a fundamental goal in earthquake seismology with important implications for earthquake early warning systems and forecasting.

Frictional Mechanics of Slow Earthquakes [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2018
AbstractTectonic faults slip in a wide range of modes that span from slow slip events to dynamic rupture. A growing body of observations document this spectrum of failure modes in many geologic settings. However, the physical mechanisms that dictate slow slip are not understood.

Bridging the gap between low-frequency and very-low-frequency earthquakes

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2020
Slow earthquakes that are observed in the > 1 Hz frequency band are called tectonic tremor or low-frequency earthquakes (LFEs) and those in the 0.01–0.10 Hz band are called very-low-frequency earthquakes (VLFEs).

Evidence of Localized Failure Along Altered Basaltic Blocks in Tectonic Mélange at the Updip Limit of the Seismogenic Zone: Implications for the Shallow Slow Earthquake Source

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020
Field studies have led to several interpretations on the mechanics behind slow earthquake phenomena downdip of the seismogenic zone. To date, field studies have not examined the shallow subduction interface which may also host slow earthquake phenomena ...

Creep fronts and complexity in laboratory earthquake sequences illuminate delayed earthquake triggering

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Laboratory earthquake experiments reproduce delayed earthquake triggering, similar to aftershocks, as a result of propagating slow slip fronts. The speed of the fronts can be highly sensitive to fault stress levels left behind by previous earthquakes.
