Abstract To understand what governs earthquake size, we investigated the 2021 Mw 7.0 Japan Trench earthquake, which began near a nest of repeating earthquakes. High‐precision hypocenter relocation and P‐waveform correlation show that the mainshock initiated nearly identically to Mw 3.8 repeaters.

Abstract Earthquakes affect surrounding fault systems through multiple mechanisms. Here, we examine a rare cessation of activity in 27 families of low‐frequency earthquakes (LFEs) that likely reflect fault creep at the southern edge of Cascadia subduction, near the Mendocino triple junction.

Abstract Ground deformation of dormant volcanoes provides critical insights into subsurface processes and potential hazards. Here we present Sentinel‐1 Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) time series (2015–2020) for Changbaishan volcano, the largest intraplate volcanic system in East Asia. We detect persistent subsidence of up to 3.5 mm/yr

Abstract The Mw 7.7 Myanmar earthquake on 28 March 2025 ruptured ∼480 km of the Sagaing Fault. Its fault slip distribution remains poorly constrained by three‐dimensional surface displacement data due to sparse GNSS‐coverage near the fault. Satellite‐based synthetic aperture radars capture meters of right‐lateral displacements but isolating vertical ...

Abstract We investigate the role of the elasticity and density of the forearc mantle wedge corner on the stress distribution in the forearc region of subduction zones, using numerical quasi‐2D lithospheric deformation models for the Cascadia, Nankai, NE Japan, and Costa Rica subduction zones. We incorporate the forearc mantle wedge corner as an elastic
