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 …

Understanding the behavior of fluids in seismically active faults and their chemical-physical
(dis) equilibrium with the host rock is important to understand the role of fluids upon …

Modern geodetic and seismologic observations describe the behavior of fault slip over a
vast range of spatial and temporal scales. Slip at sub-seismogenic speeds is evident from …

Faults are rarely completely smooth, with topographic undulations coming from the
distribution of asperities along the fault surface. Understanding the effects of fault surface …

Some faults are considered strong because their strength is consistent with the Coulomb
criterion under Byerlee's friction, 0.6< μ< 0.85. In marked contrast, numerous studies have …

Tectonic faults fail in a spectrum of modes, ranging from earthquakes to slow slip events.
The physics of fast earthquakes are well described by stick–slip friction and elastodynamic …

A transformative advance in Earth science is the development of low‐temperature
thermochronometry to date Earth surface processes or quantify the thermal evolution of …

Subduction zones generate the largest earthquakes on Earth, yet their detailed structure,
and its influence on seismic and aseismic slip, remains poorly understood. Geological …

Previous studies show that pulverized rocks observed along large faults can be created by
single high‐strain rate loadings in the laboratory, provided that the strain rate is higher than …

We report macroscopic stick‐slip events in saw‐cut Westerly granite samples deformed
under controlled upper crustal stress conditions in the laboratory. Experiments were …
