Slow slip events are regular earthquakes [PDF]
Abstract Slow slip events usually occur downdip of seismogenic zones in subduction megathrusts and crustal faults, with rupture speeds much slower than earthquakes. The empirical moment-duration scaling relation can help constrain the physical mechanism of slow slip events, yet it is still debated whether this scaling is linear or cubic and a ...

Systematic Detection of Short‐Term Slow Slip Events in Southcentral Alaska
Slow slip events (SSEs) are important for the slip budget along a megathrust fault. Although the recurrence of weeks‐long short‐term SSEs (S‐SSEs) in southcentral Alaska has been suggested, a large amount of noise prevented us from detecting discrete ...

Integrated rupture mechanics for slow slip events and earthquakes
AbstractSlow slip events occur worldwide and could trigger devastating earthquakes, yet it is still debated whether their moment-duration scaling is linear or cubic and a fundamental model unifying slow and fast earthquakes is still lacking. Here, we show that the rupture propagation of simulated slow and fast earthquakes can be predicted by a newly ...

Using global navigation satellite system (GNSS) data to detect millimeter-order signals of short-term slow slip events (S-SSEs) and to estimate their source parameters, especially duration, is challenging because of low signal-to-noise ratio.

The month‐to‐year‐long deformation of the Earth's crust where active subduction zones terminate is poorly explored. Here we report on a multidisciplinary data set that captures the synergy of slow‐slip events, earthquake swarms and fault interactions ...

Slow slip events in the northern Hikurangi margin of Aotearoa New Zealand occur every 18–24 months and last for several weeks before returning to average convergence rates of around 38 mm/yr.

Using new continuous geodetic time series, we identify five shallow slow slip events (SSEs) offshore and beneath the Osa peninsula in southern Costa Rica. An early event was detected by one station in 2013, and two events occurring in close succession in

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

Defining the Relationship between Seismicity and Deformation at Regional and Local Scales [PDF]
In this thesis, I use source inversion methods to improve understanding of crustal deformation along the Nyainquentanglha (NQTL) Detachment in Southern Tibet and the Piceance Basin in northwestern Colorado.

Recovery of the recurrence interval of Boso slow slip events in Japan
We present the spatiotemporal evolution of the Boso slow slip event with a moment of 20 × 1018 N m that occurred in June 2018; such events, which have a duration of 1–2 weeks, have repeatedly occurred off the Boso peninsula, east Japan.
