Strength of stick-slip and creeping subduction megathrusts from heat flow observations
X Gao, K Wang - Science, 2014 - science.org
Subduction faults, called megathrusts, can generate large and hazardous earthquakes. The
mode of slip and seismicity of a megathrust is controlled by the structural complexity of the …

Geodetically inferred locking state of the Cascadia megathrust based on a viscoelastic Earth model
In a viscoelastic Earth, stresses slowly built up due to fault locking are relaxed concurrently
during the entire interseismic period. This interseismic stress relaxation causes crustal …
