A review on slow earthquakes in the Japan Trench
Slow earthquakes are episodic slow fault slips. They form a fundamental component of
interplate deformation processes, along with fast, regular earthquakes. Recent …

Seafloor observations indicate spatial separation of coseismic and postseismic slips in the 2011 Tohoku earthquake
Large interplate earthquakes are often followed by postseismic slip that is considered to
occur in areas surrounding the coseismic ruptures. Such spatial separation is expected from …
