Spatiotemporal Variation of Tectonic Tremor Activity Before the Tohoku‐Oki Earthquake [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2018
A slow slip event (SSE) and tectonic tremors occurred approximately 1.5 month prior to the occurrence of the 2011 Tohoku‐Oki earthquake near the Japan Trench.

Influence of structure and pore pressure of plate interface on tectonic tremor in the Nankai subduction zone, Japan

open access: yesEarth and Planetary Science Letters, 2021
Episodes of tectonic tremor are observed in the Nankai accretionary prism close to the trough axis; however, their non-impulsive signals and the distortion of seismic signals in the accretionary prism make it challenging to accurately estimate their ...

Chemical origin of tectonic tremor [PDF]

open access: yesNature Geoscience, 2019
Tectonic tremor may ultimately be caused by in situ fluid overpressure generated by chemical reactions between a subducting slab and the mantle, according to field and microstructural observations of a shear zone.

Possible Shallow Tectonic Tremor Signals Near the Deformation Front in Central Cascadia

open access: yesSeismica
To better constrain the locking state of the shallow Cascadia megathrust, we investigate whether shallow tectonic tremor occurs near the deformation front at ~44.5°N during 2015-2024. We focus on two cabled buried ocean bottom seismometers (OBSs) on the

Tectonic Tremor Explained by Successive Ruptures of Clustered Quartz‐Filled Shear Veins

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
A tectonic tremor is a successive seismic signal observed along plate boundaries in subduction zones. However, the source processes and mechanisms responsible for the tremor remain unclear. Quartz‐filled shear and extension veins are clustered in tens to

Variety and spatial heterogeneity of tectonic tremor worldwide [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2012
Deep tectonic tremor occurs at various sites worldwide, and the source characteristics are heterogeneous, even at small scales. In this study, tremor sources were determined using data sets of seismic waveforms from various locations, some of which are not well recognized as being a site of tremor activity.

Low-frequency tremor-like episodes before the 2023 M W 7.8 Türkiye earthquake linked to cement quarrying [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Recent advances in artificial intelligence have enhanced the detection and identification of transient low-amplitude signals across the entire frequency spectrum, shedding light on deformation processes preceding natural hazards.

Shallow tectonic tremor activities in Hyuga-nada, Nankai subduction zone, based on long-term broadband ocean bottom seismic observations

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2021
The study of slow earthquake activity, which occurs in the shallow and deep sides of seismogenic zone, is crucial for understanding subduction zones, including variations in frictional properties with depth and interplate coupling.

Tectonic tremor and deep slow slip on the Alpine Fault [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2012
Tectonic tremor is characterized by persistent, low-frequency seismic energy seen at major plate boundaries. Although predominantly associated with subduction zones, tremor also occurs along the deep extension of the strike-slip San Andreas Fault.

Using Tectonic Tremor to Constrain Seismic Wave Attenuation in Cascadia [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2017
Tectonic tremor can be used to constrain seismic wave attenuation for use in ground motion prediction equations in regions where moderately sized earthquakes occur infrequently.
