Origin of slow earthquake statistics in low-friction soft granular shear [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsSlow earthquakes differ from regular earthquakes in their slower moment release and size distribution dominated by smaller events. However, the physical origin of these slow earthquake statistics remains controversial.

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020 The month‐to‐year‐long deformation of the Earth's crust where active subduction zones terminate is poorly explored. Here we report on a multidisciplinary data set that captures the synergy of slow‐slip events, earthquake swarms and fault interactions ...

Remote Sensing, 2023 Strong earthquakes can not only trigger many landslides in a short period of time but can also change the stability of slopes in the earthquake area, causing them to be active for a long time after the earthquake. Research on the variation of slow-motion

Slow slip modulates low-frequency seismicity on the Parkfield segment of the San Andreas Fault [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsUnderstanding how slow slip events (SSEs) influence fault behavior is essential for characterizing the fault slip spectrum and its role in earthquake generation.

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 The southernmost Ryukyu subduction zone may have a geodetically inferred Mw 7.5 to 8.7 megathrust earthquake in a shallow locked region, the Ryukyu fault.

A review on slow earthquakes in the Japan Trench
Progress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2023 Slow earthquakes are episodic slow fault slips. They form a fundamental component of interplate deformation processes, along with fast, regular earthquakes.

Slow slip events following the afterslip of the 2002 Mw 7.1 Hualien offshore earthquake, Taiwan
Earth, Planets and Space, 2022 Geodetic evidence for slow slip recurrence changed by stress perturbations was rare, especially from afterslip following a nearby large earthquake. The first observed slow slip events in the southernmost Ryukyu subduction had occurred in 2005, 2009, and ...

Geophysical 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
Earth, 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
Scientific 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).
