Geodesy, the oldest science, has become an important discipline in the geosciences, in
large part by enhancing Global Positioning System (GPS) capabilities over the last 35 years …

Magma transport in brittle rock occurs by diking. Understanding the dynamics of diking and
its observable consequences is essential to deciphering magma propagation in volcanic …

The discovery of slow-slip phenomena has revolutionized our understanding of how faults
accommodate relative plate motions. Faults were previously thought to relieve stress either …

Recently, a series of unusual earthquake phenomena have been discovered, including
deep episodic tremor, low-frequency earthquakes, very-low-frequency earthquakes, slow …

An extended earthquake swarm occurred beneath southeastern Long Valley Caldera
between May and November 2014, culminating in three magnitude 3.5 earthquakes and …

It has been known for a long time that slip accompanying earthquakes accounts for only a
fraction of plate tectonic displacements. However, only recently has a fuller spectrum of …

The characterisation of fluid transport properties of rocks is one of the most important, yet
difficult, challenges of reservoir geophysics, but is essential for optimal development of …

Nonvolcanic tremor is observed in close association with geodetically observed slow-slip
events in subduction zones. Accumulating evidence points to these events as members of a …

The mechanics of slow slip events (SSE) in subduction zones remain unresolved. We
suggest that SSE nucleate in areas of unstable friction under drained conditions, but as slip …

Aseismic deformation transients can emerge as a natural outcome of the rate and state
friction processes revealed in laboratory fault‐sliding experiments. When that constitutive …
