Shallow Creep in the Leaky Stress Shadow of Locked Zones of Subduction Megathrust

Geophysical Research Letters
In some subduction zones such as Nankai, creeping of the shallow part of the megathrust in the stress shadow of deeper locked zones is detected by seafloor geodetic measurements and/or reflected by slow earthquakes (SEQs).

Metamorphic Dehydration, Fluid Pressure, and the Frictional‐Viscous Transition Along Subduction Megathrusts: Case Study in Cascadia and Implications for Slow Earthquakes

AGU Advances
Relative plate motion in subduction zones transitions from frictional slip to viscous flow with increasing depth and temperature. The frictional‐viscous transition can control the depth extent of megathrust earthquakes and episodic tremor and slip (ETS).

Frontal Thrust Ramp‐Up and Slow Earthquakes Due To Underthrusting of Basement High in the Nankai Trough

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Recently, integrated geophysical‐geological surveys in the Nankai subduction zone in Japan have revealed that slow earthquakes repeatedly occur beneath the outer wedge of the forearc.

SLOW EARTHQUAKES IN CENTRAL ITALY

, 2002
[1] Slow earthquakes and afterslips prove that the Earth does not have just two response time scales, i.e. that of tectonic loading and that of regular earthquakes. A swarm of slow earthquakes, with time constants of the order of hundreds of seconds, has been detected by a laser interferometer below the Gran Sasso massif (Italy).

Evolution of Coupled Seismic‐Aseismic Slip During the 2025 Mw 6.8 Sanriku‐Oki, Japan, Megathrust Sequence

Geophysical Research Letters
On 9 November 2025, a Mw 6.8 Sanriku‐Oki earthquake struck a Japan Trench segment with inferred recurrent aseismic slip and Mw ∼7 earthquakes. Using S‐net seafloor data, we examine the preparatory and post‐mainshock evolution of this foreshock–mainshock ...

Investigation on short-term slow slip events in the northeast Japan subduction zones using decadal GNSS data

Earth, Planets and Space
Since their discovery over 25 years ago, slow slip events (SSEs) have been regarded as key phenomena for better understanding the characteristics and kinematics of faults.
