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 …

The nature of the Pacific plate as subduction inputs to the northeastern Japan arc and its implication for subduction zone processes

G Fujie, S Kodaira, K Obana, Y Yamamoto… - Progress in Earth and …, 2023 - Springer
Devastating megathrust earthquakes and slow earthquakes both occur along subducting
plate interfaces. These interplate seismic activities are strongly dependent on the nature of …

Crustal seismic imaging from multifold ocean bottom seismometer data by frequency domain full waveform tomography: Application to the eastern Nankai trough

S Operto, J Virieux, JX Dessa… - Journal of Geophysical …, 2006 - Wiley Online Library
In offshore surveys, the deep crust is generally investigated by traveltime tomography
applied to sparse ocean bottom seismometer data. The inferred velocity models are of …

Seismic reflection character of the Hikurangi subduction interface, New Zealand, in the region of repeated Gisborne slow slip events

R Bell, R Sutherland, DHN Barker… - Geophysical Journal …, 2010 - academic.oup.com
We use seismic reflection data to map the geometry and character of the subduction
interface in the Gisborne area of the Hikurangi subduction margin, New Zealand, which …

Gravity anomalies, crustal structure, and seismicity at subduction zones: 2. Interrelationships between fore‐arc structure and seismogenic behavior

D Bassett, AB Watts - Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
An ensemble‐averaging technique is used to remove the long‐wavelength topography and
gravity field associated with subduction zones. Short‐wavelength residual anomalies are …

Geological control of the partitioning between seismic and aseismic sliding behaviours in active faults: Evidence from the Western Alps, France

JP Gratier, F Thouvenot, L Jenatton, A Tourette… - Tectonophysics, 2013 - Elsevier
Given that active faults can slide either continuously by aseismic creep or episodically
during earthquakes, and that the same fault zone may evolve laterally from seismic to …

Along‐trench variations in the seismic structure of the incoming Pacific plate at the outer rise of the northern Japan Trench

G Fujie, S Kodaira, T Sato… - Geophysical Research …, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
To investigate along‐trench variations in the seismic structure of the incoming oceanic plate
and their effect on water transportation by the oceanic plate, we conducted a wide‐angle …

Co-and postseismic slip behaviors extracted from decadal seafloor geodesy after the 2011 Tohoku-oki earthquake

S Watanabe, T Ishikawa, Y Nakamura… - Earth, Planets and Space, 2021 - Springer
Investigations of the co-and postseismic processes of the 2011 Tohoku-oki earthquake
provide essential information on the seismic cycle in the Japan Trench. Although almost all …

Hydrous state of the subducting Philippine Sea plate inferred from receiver function image using onshore and offshore data

T Akuhara, K Mochizuki - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
Exploring the hydrous state of subducting oceanic crust is intriguing because it is considered
to affect the strength of megathrust faults that cause various types of earthquakes; however …

Receiver function imaging of the amphibious NE japan subduction zone—Effects of low‐velocity sediment layer

HJ Kim, H Kawakatsu, T Akuhara… - Journal of …, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
This study presents reflectivity images of the northeast (NE) Japan subduction zone
continuous across the ocean and land. As nearly half of its forearc region is under the …
