Forecasting tectonic tremor activity using a renewal process model
In many tectonically active regions of the world, a variety of slow deformation phenomena have been discovered and collectively termed slow earthquakes.

The big impact of small quakes on tectonic tremor synchronization. [PDF]
Tectonic tremor tracks the repeated slow rupture of certain major plate boundary faults. One of the most perplexing aspects about tremor is that some fault segments produce strongly periodic, spatially extensive tremor episodes, while others have more ...

Tectonic tremor: The chatter of mafic underplating
Tremor is a weak seismic signal accompanying slow fault slip at plate boundaries. The relationship between tremor and slow slip and the tremor source mechanism have been widely debated, owing largely to the challenge of accurately locating tremor in ...

Tectonic tremor and LFEs on a reverse fault in Taiwan [PDF]
We compare low‐frequency earthquakes (LFEs) from triggered and ambient tremor under the southern Central Range, Taiwan. We apply the PageRank algorithm used by Aguiar and Beroza (2014) that exploits the repetitive nature of the LFEs to find repeating ...

Seismological Structures on Bimodal Distribution of Deep Tectonic Tremor [PDF]
Deep tectonic tremors occur at the downdip extent of the seismogenic zone due to fluid processes. Beneath the northeastern Kii Peninsula, southwestern Japan, there is an along‐dip bimodal distribution of tremor.

Depth and Thickness of Tectonic Tremor in the Northeastern Olympic Peninsula [PDF]
Tectonic tremor has been explained as a swarm of low‐frequency earthquakes (LFEs), which are located on a narrow fault at the plate boundary. However, due to the lack of clear impulsive phases in the tremor signal, it is difficult to determine the depth ...

Tectonic tremor as friction-induced inertial vibration
Slow slip events are often accompanied by tremor but how tremor is generated is yet elusive. In this study, we test the possibility that it is an inertial vibration.

Tectonic tremor on Vancouver Island, Cascadia, modulated by the body and surface waves of the Mw 8.6 and 8.2, 2012 East Indian Ocean earthquakes [PDF]
The 2012 East Indian Ocean earthquake (Mw 8.6), so far the largest intraoceanic plate strike‐slip event ever recorded, modulated tectonic tremors in the Cascadia subduction zone.

Deep tectonic tremor occurs repeatedly at the base of a forearc mantle wedge corner, where a highly fluid-pressurized serpentinite shear zone is thought to develop.

Does Deep Tectonic Tremor Occur in the Central‐Eastern Mediterranean Basin? [PDF]
Tectonic tremor has been observed at the roots of many fault systems around the Pacific rim, including convergent and transform plate boundaries.
