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 …

Variation in slip behaviour along megathrusts controlled by multiple physical properties

D Bassett, DJ Shillington, LM Wallace, JL Elliott - Nature Geoscience, 2025 - nature.com
Megathrusts, faults at the plate interface in subduction zones, exhibit substantial
spatiotemporal variability in their slip behaviour. Many previous attempts to discern the …

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 …

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 …

The source scaling and seismic productivity of slow slip transients

L Passarelli, PA Selvadurai, E Rivalta, S Jónsson - Science Advances, 2021 - science.org
Slow slip events (SSEs) represent a slow faulting process leading to aseismic strain release
often accompanied by seismic tremor or earthquake swarms. The larger SSEs last longer …

S Takemura, T Matsuzawa, A Noda… - Geophysical …, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
The spatial distributions of shallow slow earthquakes are related to stress accumulation and
structural characteristics of the shallow plate boundary, which are important for …

Self-similarity of low-frequency earthquakes

M Supino, N Poiata, G Festa, JP Vilotte, C Satriano… - Scientific Reports, 2020 - nature.com
Low-frequency earthquakes are a particular class of slow earthquakes that provide a unique
source of information on the physical processes along a subduction zone during the …

Locating boundaries between locked and cree** regions at Nankai and Cascadia subduction zones

EM Sherrill, KM Johnson… - Journal of Geophysical …, 2024 - Wiley Online Library
Interseismic coupling maps and, especially, estimates of the location of the fully coupled
(locked) zone relative to the trench, coastline, and slow slip events are crucial for …

Slow earthquakes occur at deep and shallow plate boundaries along the Nankai Trough.
Deep slow earthquakes are continuously distributed along the 30–40 km depth contours of …

Spatiotemporal variations of shallow very low frequency earthquake activity southeast off the Kii Peninsula, along the Nankai Trough, Japan
