Slow Earthquakes in the Microseism Frequency Band (0.1–1.0 Hz) off Kii Peninsula, Japan

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2018
It is difficult to detect the signal of slow deformation in the 0.1–1.0 Hz frequency band between tectonic tremors and very low frequency events, where microseism noise is dominant.

Distribution of low-frequency earthquakes accompanying the very low frequency earthquakes along the Ryukyu Trench

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2017
This study investigated the activity and distribution of low-frequency earthquakes (LFEs) accompanying the very low frequency earthquakes (VLFEs) in the central and southern Ryukyu Trench.

Ocean-bottom and surface seismometers reveal continuous glacial tremor and slip

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Anomalously slow earthquakes play a critical role in the earthquake cycle and fault sliding. Here, the authors detect continuous seismic radiation from a glacier sliding over its bed and show persistent coastal shaking to represent an addition to the ...

Strain waves, earthquakes, slow earthquakes, and afterslip in the framework of the Frenkel-Kontorova model [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2009
The one-dimensional Frenkel-Kontorova (FK) model, well known from the theory of dislocations in crystal materials, is applied to the simulation of the process of nonelastic stress propagation along transform faults. Dynamic parameters of plate boundary earthquakes as well as slow earthquakes and afterslip are quantitatively described, including ...

The Mw7.8 2016 Kaikōura earthquake

open access: yes, 2017
We provide a summary of the surface fault ruptures produced by the Mw7.8 14 November 2016 Kaikōura earthquake, including examples of damage to engineered structures, transportation networks and farming infrastructure produced by direct fault surface ...

Slow Slip as an Indicator of Fault Stress Criticality

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Fault regions inferred to be slowly slipping are interpreted to accommodate much of tectonic plate motion aseismically and potentially serve as barriers to earthquake rupture.

Telesesimic Detection of Slow Precursor to the Great 1989 Macquarie Ridge Earthquake

open access: yes, 1993
Low-frequency spectra for the 1989 Macquarie Ridge earthquake (magnitude 8.2) show an amplitude increase and a phase-delay decrease below 6 millihertz that require a short-term slow precursor. This earthquake can be modeled as a compound event in which a

Triggered Slow Slip and Afterslip on the Southern Hikurangi Subduction Zone Following the Kaikoura Earthquake

open access: yes, 2018
The 2016 MW7.8 Kaikōura earthquake ruptured a complex sequence of strike-slip and reverse faults in New Zealand's northeastern South Island.

2022 Mw 6.6 Luding, China, Earthquake: A Strong Continental Event Illuminating the Moxi Seismic Gap

open access: yes, 2023
On 5 September 2022, an Mw 6.6 strike-slip earthquake occurred in Luding, Sichuan, China. It illuminates the seismic gap on the southern end of Xianshuihe fault zone, that is Moxi segment, and is the most damaging earthquake in Chinese Mainland since ...

Detection of Shallow Tectonic Tremors in Hyuga‐nada, Nankai Trough, Using the Newly Established N‐Net OBS Network

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Monitoring tectonic tremors is crucial for understanding stress release in subduction zones and assessing megathrust earthquake risk. The Hyuga‐nada region, at the western edge of the Nankai Trough, Japan, provides a natural laboratory for investigating ...
