Spontaneous complexity in the dynamics of slow laboratory earthquakes

Nature Communications
Rock deformation experiments play a key role in our understanding of earthquake physics and friction constitutive laws. These laws commonly describe the response of analogue laboratory faults as a simple and homogeneous system, without accounting for the

Frictional and Lithological Controls on Shallow Slow Slip at the Northern Hikurangi Margin

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2022
Slow slip events (SSEs) have been identified at subduction zones globally as an important link in the continuum between elastodynamic ruptures and stable creep.

A review of tidal triggering of global earthquakes

Geodesy and Geodynamics, 2023
Earthquake prediction remains a challenging and difficult task for scientists all over the world. The tidal triggering of earthquakes is being proven by an increasing number of investigations, most of which have shown that earthquakes are positively ...

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.

A combination of tides and nontidal variations in ocean bottom pressure may generate interannual slip fluctuations in the transition zone along a subduction plate interface

Geodesy and Geodynamics, 2023
The tidal triggering of earthquakes has been studied for many years. The discovery of slow earthquakes in the early 2000s, including slow slip, has urged scientists to investigate the tidal responses of these earthquakes due to their sensitivity to weak ...

Observation of Shallow Slow Earthquakes by Distributed Acoustic Sensing Using Offshore Fiber‐Optic Cable in the Nankai Trough, Southwest Japan

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023
Off Cape Muroto area, along the Nankai Trough in southwest Japan, is a typical area with adjacent occurrences of slow and megathrust earthquakes. High‐resolution monitoring of slow earthquakes is necessary to understand tectonic conditions.

SEJSMICZNOŚĆ, TRZĘSIENIA ZIEMI I LINGWISTYKA [PDF]

Przegląd Geofizyczny, 2023
The general mechanism of earthquakes has been known for over a hundred years. The stresses accumulated over the years around the fault – the effect of tectonic plates movement relative to each other and deforming – must be released from time to time by ...

Slow Slip Events in the Kanto and Tokai Regions of Central Japan Detected Using Global Navigation Satellite System Data During 1994–2020

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021
Slow slip events (SSEs) along subduction zones play an important role in accommodating relative plate motion. SSEs interplay with large megathrust earthquakes and other slow earthquakes, including low frequency and very low frequency earthquakes.

Very Low Frequency Earthquakes in Between the Seismogenic and Tremor Zones in Cascadia?

AGU Advances, 2022
Megathrust earthquakes and their associated tsunamis cause some of the worst natural disasters. In addition to earthquakes, a wide range of slip behaviors are present at subduction zones, including slow earthquakes that span multiple orders of spatial ...

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

Nature 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 ...
