Slow slip events in the roots of the San Andreas fault. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Adv, 2019
By analyzing GPS time series, we have detected an averaged M w 4.9 slow slip event in the roots of the San Andreas fault.

Seismic Swarms Unveil the Mechanisms Driving Shallow Slow Slip Dynamics in the Copiapó Ridge, Northern Chile

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Like earthquakes, slow slip events release elastic energy stored on faults. Yet, the mechanisms behind slow slip instability and its relationship with seismicity are debated. Here, we use a seismo‐geodetic deployment to document a shallow slow slip event

Slow-slip events in semi-brittle serpentinite fault zones. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2018
Slow-slip events are earthquake-like events only with much lower slip rates. While peak coseismic velocities can reach tens of meters per second, slow-slip is on the order of 1E-7 m/s and may last for days to weeks.

Origin of slow earthquake statistics in low-friction soft granular shear [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
Slow 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.

Slow slip events following the afterslip of the 2002 Mw 7.1 Hualien offshore earthquake, Taiwan

open access: yesEarth, 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 ...

Precursory Slow Slip and Foreshocks on Rough Faults [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2020
AbstractForeshocks are not uncommon prior to large earthquakes, but their physical mechanism remains controversial. Two interpretations have been advanced: (1) foreshocks are driven by aseismic nucleation and (2) foreshocks are cascades, with each event triggered by earlier ones.

Direct Evidence of a Slow‐Slip Transient Modulating the Spatiotemporal and Frequency‐Magnitude Earthquake Distribution: Insights From the Armutlu Peninsula, Northwestern Turkey

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2022
Earthquakes and slow‐slip events interact, however, detailed studies investigating their interplay are still limited. We generate the highest resolution microseismicity catalog to date for the northern Armutlu Peninsula in a ∼1‐year period to perform a ...

Filling the Gap in Cascadia: The Emergence of Low‐Amplitude Long‐Term Slow Slip

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021
Long‐term slow slip events have been observed at several subduction zones around the globe, where they play an integral part in strain release along megathrust faults.

Quake clamps down on slow slip [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2014
AbstractUsing continuous GPS (cGPS) data from the Hikurangi subduction zone in New Zealand, we show for the first time that stress changes induced by a local earthquake can arrest an ongoing slow slip event (SSE). The cGPS data show that the slip rate in the northern portion of the 2013/2014 Kapiti SSE decreased abruptly following a nearby intraslab ...
