Unraveling Scaling Properties of Slow‐Slip Events [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2020
AbstractA major debate in geophysics is whether earthquakes and slow‐slip events (SSEs) arise from similar failure mechanisms. Recent observations from different subduction zones suggest that SSEs follow the same moment‐duration scaling as earthquakes, unlike qualitatively different scaling proposed by earlier studies.

Data assimilation for fault slip monitoring and short-term prediction of spatio-temporal evolution of slow slip events: application to the 2010 long-term slow slip event in the Bungo Channel, Japan

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space
Monitoring and predicting fault slip behaviors in subduction zones is essential for understanding earthquake cycles and assessing future earthquake potential. We developed a data assimilation method for fault slip monitoring and the short-term prediction

Slip-rate-dependent friction as a universal mechanism for slow slip events [PDF]

open access: yesNature Geoscience, 2020
A growing body of observations worldwide has documented fault slip transients that radiate little or no seismic energy. The mechanisms that govern these slow slip events (SSEs) and their wide range of depths, slip rates, durations, stress drops and recurrence intervals remain poorly known.

Subdaily Slow Fault Slip Dynamics Captured by Low‐Frequency Earthquakes [PDF]

open access: yesAGU Advances, 2023
Geodetic positioning is the geophysical record of reference for slow slip events, but typical daily solutions limit studies of the evolution of slow slip to its long‐term dynamics.

Spatial and temporal evolution of a long term slow slip event: the 2006 Guerrero Slow Slip Event [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Journal International, 2010
P>The Guerrero 2006 Slow Slip Event (SSE), Mexico, one of the world's largest observed SSEs, was recorded at 15 continuous GPS stations. This event provides the opportunity to analyse in detail the spatial and temporal evolution of slip at depth, and to ...

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

Dilatant strengthening as a mechanism for slow slip events [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2010
The mechanics of slow slip events (SSE) in subduction zones remain unresolved. We suggest that SSE nucleate in areas of unstable friction under drained conditions, but as slip accelerates dilatancy reduces pore pressure p quenching instability. Competition between dilatant strengthening and thermal pressurization may control whether slip is slow or ...

Long-lived shallow slow-slip events on the Sunda megathrust [PDF]

open access: yesNature Geoscience, 2021
During most of the time between large earthquakes at tectonic plate boundaries, surface displacement time series are generally observed to be linear. This linear trend is interpreted as a result of steady stress accumulation at frictionally locked asperities on the fault interface.

Slow Slip Event at Kilauea Volcano [PDF]

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2010
Early in the morning of 1 February 2010 (UTC; early afternoon 31 January 2010 local time), continuous Global Positioning System (GPS) and tilt instruments detected a slow slip event (SSE) on the south flank of Kilauea volcano, Hawaii. The SSE lasted at least 36 hours and resulted in a maximum of about 3 centimeters of seaward displacement.
