Location of largest earthquake slip and fast rupture controlled by along‐strike change in fault structural maturity due to fault growth
Earthquake slip distributions are asymmetric along strike, but the reasons for the asymmetry
are unknown. We address this question by establishing empirical relations between …

The role of fluid pressure in induced vs. triggered seismicity: Insights from rock deformation experiments on carbonates
Fluid overpressure is one of the primary mechanisms for tectonic fault slip, because fluids
lubricate the fault and fluid pressure reduces the effective normal stress that holds the fault in …
