Connecting slow earthquakes to huge earthquakes

Science, 2016
Slow earthquakes are characterized by a wide spectrum of fault slip behaviors and seismic radiation patterns that differ from those of traditional earthquakes. However, slow earthquakes and huge megathrust earthquakes can have common slip mechanisms and are located in neighboring regions of the seismogenic zone.

A scaling law for slow earthquakes

Nature, 2007
Recently, a series of unusual earthquake phenomena have been discovered, including deep episodic tremor, low-frequency earthquakes, very-low-frequency earthquakes, slow slip events and silent earthquakes. Each of these has been demonstrated to arise from shear slip, just as do regular earthquakes, but with longer characteristic durations and radiating ...

Slow earthquakes and great earthquakes along the Nankai trough

Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2002
Abstract We have reexamined reports indicating that slow deformation occurred before the great Japan earthquakes of 1944 (Tonankai) and 1946 (Nankaido) and find that the observations are well founded. Although no quantitative models have previously been proposed to explain all of the relevant data we show that they are satisfied by a simple model for

Slow earthquakes and stress redistribution

Nature, 1978
Strainmeters with high sensitivity over long periods have enabled the detection and identification of slow earthquakes: seismic events which produce records similar to those from normal earthquakes except that the time scale for the rupture process is considerably longer.

A slow earthquake

Physics of the Earth and Planetary Interiors, 1979
Anomalous earthquakes such as creep events, tsunami earthquakes and silent earthquakes have been reported in the recent literature. In this paper we discuss an anomalous “slow earthquake” that occurred on June 6, 1960 in southern Chile. Although the surface-wave magnitude of this event is only 6.9, it excited anomalously large long-period multiple ...

Slow earthquakes triggered by typhoons

Nature, 2009
The first reports on a slow earthquake were for an event in the Izu peninsula, Japan, on an intraplate, seismically active fault. Since then, many slow earthquakes have been detected. It has been suggested that the slow events may trigger ordinary earthquakes (in a context supported by numerical modelling), but their broader significance in terms of ...

Slow Earthquakes Coincident with Episodic Tremors and Slow Slip Events

Science, 2007
We report on the very-low-frequency earthquakes occurring in the transition zone of the subducting plate interface along the Nankai subduction zone in southwest Japan. Seismic waves generated by very-low-frequency earthquakes with seismic moment magnitudes of 3.1 to 3.5 predominantly show a long period of about 20 seconds.

Tsunami Efficiency Due to Very Slow Earthquakes

Seismological Research Letters, 2020
Abstract Often, tsunami “sources” have been treated as a quasistatic problem. Initial studies have demonstrated that, for earthquake rupture velocities in the span of 1.5–3  km/s, the kinematic and static part of the tsunami can be treated separately. However, very slow earthquake rupture velocities in the span of 0.1–1  km/s have not
