Slow-slip events in semi-brittle serpentinite fault zones [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2018 Abstract 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 10 −7±2 m/s and may last for days to weeks.

Slow slip events are regular earthquakes [PDF]
, 2021 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 ...

Do Slow Slip Events Trigger Large and Great Megathrust Earthquakes? [PDF]
Sci Adv, 2018 Slow slip events have been suggested to trigger subduction earthquakes. However, examples to date have been poorly recorded, occurring offshore, where data are sparse. Better understanding of slow slip events and their influence on subsequent earthquakes

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

Unraveling Scaling Properties of Slow‐Slip Events [PDF]
Geophysical 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.

Areas prone to slow slip events impede earthquake rupture propagation and promote afterslip [PDF]
Sci Adv, 2018 International audienceAt subduction zones, transient aseismic slip occurs either as afterslip following a large earthquake or as episodic slow slip events during the interseismic period.

Global subduction slow slip events and associated earthquakes [PDF]
Science AdvancesThree decades of geodetic monitoring have established slow slip events (SSEs) as a common mode of fault slip, sometimes linked with earthquake swarms and in a few cases escalating to major seismic events. However, the connection between SSEs and earthquake hazard has been difficult to quantify and contextualize beyond regional studies.

Maximum size and magnitude of injection-induced slow slip events [PDF]
Science AdvancesFluid injections can induce aseismic slip, resulting in stress changes that may propagate faster than pore pressure diffusion, potentially triggering seismicity at substantial distances from injection wells. Constraining the maximum extent of these aseismic ruptures is, thus, important for better delineating the influence zone of injections concerning ...

Earth, Planets and SpaceTemporary slip speed increases with durations of 1–3 h were identified during short-term slow slip events in records of borehole and laser strainmeters in the Tokai region, Japan. They were found by searching for peaks of correlation coefficients between
