Slow slip events along the North Anatolian Fault

2021
<p>While some faults remain locked for tens to hundreds of years, some active faults slip slowly, either continuously or episodically. The discovery of slow, generally silent, slip at the turn of the century led to a profound modification of our understanding of the mechanics of faulting, shedding light on the dynamics of fault slip. Such

Record by quartz veins of earthquakes and slow slip events

2020
<p>Veins that form contemporaneously with deformation are the best recorders of the fluids circulating in the depths of orogenic and subduction zones. We have analyzed syn-kinematic quartz veins from accretionary prisms (Shimanto Belt in Japan, Kodiak accretionary prism in Alaska) and tectonic nappes in collisional orogens ...

The source scaling of swarm-genic slow slip events

2020
<p>Slow slip events (SSEs) are slow fault ruptures that do not excite detectable seismic waves although they are often accompanied by some forms of seismic strain release, e.g., clusters of low- and very-low frequency earthquakes, and/or episodic or continuous non-volcanic tremor (i.e.

Fault-valve instability: A mechanism for slow slip events

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth
Geophysical and geological studies provide evidence for cyclic changes in fault-zone pore fluid pressure that synchronize with or at least modulate seismic cycles. A hypothesized mechanism for this behavior is fault valving arising from temporal changes in fault zone permeability.

Episodic slow slip events and rate‐and‐state friction

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2008
There are several ways of generating episodic slow slip events in models of rate‐and‐state friction. Here I explore the possibility that they arise on velocity‐weakening faults whose length is “tuned” in some sense. Unlike spring‐block sliders, which have a unique critical stiffness for instability, elastically deformable faults have multiple length ...
