What's down there? The structures, materials and environment of deep-seated slow slip and tremor

WM Behr, R Bürgmann - Philosophical Transactions of …, 2021 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Deep-seated slow slip and tremor (SST), including slow slip events, episodic tremor and
slip, and low-frequency earthquakes, occur downdip of the seismogenic zone of numerous …

Investigations and new insights on earthquake mechanics from fault slip experiments

L Dong, Q Luo - Earth-Science Reviews, 2022 - Elsevier
Earthquakes occur mainly on active faults. Fault slip is closely related to seismicity and is
thus widely discussed in Geosciences, Seismology, and Engineering. Slip experiment is a …

Slow earthquake scaling reconsidered as a boundary between distinct modes of rupture propagation

S Ide, GC Beroza - Proceedings of the National Academy of …, 2023 - National Acad Sciences
The scaling law for slow earthquakes, which is a linear relationship between seismic
moment and duration, was proposed 15 y ago and initiated a debate on the difference in …

Using a physics-informed neural network and fault zone acoustic monitoring to predict lab earthquakes

P Borate, J Rivière, C Marone, A Mali, D Kifer… - Nature …, 2023 - nature.com
Predicting failure in solids has broad applications including earthquake prediction which
remains an unattainable goal. However, recent machine learning work shows that laboratory …

Slip-rate-dependent friction as a universal mechanism for slow slip events

K Im, D Saffer, C Marone, JP Avouac - Nature Geoscience, 2020 - nature.com
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 …

InSAR data reveal that the largest hydraulic fracturing-induced earthquake in Canada, to date, is a slow-slip event

TS Eyre, S Samsonov, W Feng, H Kao, DW Eaton - Scientific reports, 2022 - nature.com
For tectonic earthquakes, slip rate spans a continuum from creep to supershear
earthquakes, where slow slip events (SSEs) are important in releasing stress without …

A review on slow earthquakes in the Japan Trench

T Nishikawa, S Ide, T Nishimura - Progress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2023 - Springer
Slow earthquakes are episodic slow fault slips. They form a fundamental component of
interplate deformation processes, along with fast, regular earthquakes. Recent …

Initial effective stress controls the nature of earthquakes

FX Passelègue, M Almakari, P Dublanchet… - Nature …, 2020 - nature.com
Modern geophysics highlights that the slip behaviour response of faults is variable in space
and time and can result in slow or fast ruptures. However, the origin of this variation of the …

Global subduction slow slip events and associated earthquakes

K Dascher-Cousineau, R Bürgmann - Science Advances, 2024 - science.org
Three 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 …

Parallel dynamics of slow slips and fluid-induced seismic swarms

P Danré, L De Barros, F Cappa, L Passarelli - Nature Communications, 2024 - nature.com
Earthquake swarms may be driven by fluids, through hydraulic injections or natural fluid
circulation, but also by slow and aseismic slip transients. Understanding the driving factors …
