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 disorganized, asynchronous activity. Here, we measure the size of segments that activate synchronously

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

Does Deep Tectonic Tremor Occur in the Central‐Eastern Mediterranean Basin? [PDF]
Abstract Tectonic tremor has been observed at the roots of many fault systems around the Pacific rim, including convergent and transform plate boundaries. The extent to which deep tremor signals are prevalent along fault systems elsewhere, including the Mediterranean basin, has not yet been documented in detail.

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 ...

Tectonic tremor: The chatter of mafic underplating [PDF]
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 ...

Seismological Structures on Bimodal Distribution of Deep Tectonic Tremor [PDF]
AbstractDeep 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. However, no constraint exists on the structures controlling that distribution. We extract detailed seismological structures from multi‐

Variety and spatial heterogeneity of tectonic tremor worldwide [PDF]
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.

Spatiotemporal Characteristics of Tectonic Tremors in California
California, as a transform plate boundary, provides a distinctive tectonic setting and an ideal natural laboratory for investigating tectonic tremors and the slow deformation associated with plate motion.

Cascadia Slow Earthquake Behaviors Modulated by Tectonic and Environmental Forcings
Slow earthquakes, including episodic tremor and slip (ETS), are highly sensitive to small stress perturbations, yet their links to tectonic and non‐tectonic forcings remain unclear.
