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 …

What's down there? The structures, materials and environment of deep-seated slow slip and tremor

WM Behr, R Bürgmann - Philosophical Transactions of …, 2021 - royalsocietypublishing.org
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 …

Laboratory observations of slow earthquakes and the spectrum of tectonic fault slip modes

JR Leeman, DM Saffer, MM Scuderi… - Nature communications, 2016 - nature.com
Slow earthquakes represent an important conundrum in earthquake physics. While regular
earthquakes are catastrophic events with rupture velocities governed by elastic wave speed …

Slow earthquake scaling reconsidered as a boundary between distinct modes of rupture propagation

S Ide, GC Beroza - Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2023 - pnas.org
The scaling law for slow earthquakes, which is a linear relationship between seismic
moment and duration, was proposed 15 y ago and initiated a debate on the difference in …

An integrated perspective of the continuum between earthquakes and slow-slip phenomena

Z Peng, J Gomberg - Nature geoscience, 2010 - nature.com
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 …

Non-volcanic tremor and low-frequency earthquake swarms

DR Shelly, GC Beroza, S Ide - Nature, 2007 - nature.com
Non-volcanic tremor is a weak, extended duration seismic signal observed episodically on
some major faults, often in conjunction with slow slip events,,,. Such tremor may hold the key …

A scaling law for slow earthquakes

S Ide, GC Beroza, DR Shelly, T Uchide - Nature, 2007 - nature.com
Recently, a series of unusual earthquake phenomena have been discovered, including
deep episodic tremor, low-frequency earthquakes, very-low-frequency earthquakes, slow …

Slow earthquakes and nonvolcanic tremor

GC Beroza, S Ide - Annual review of Earth and planetary …, 2011 - annualreviews.org
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 …

Dilatant strengthening as a mechanism for slow slip events

P Segall, AM Rubin, AM Bradley… - Journal of Geophysical …, 2010 - Wiley Online Library
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 …

Spontaneous and triggered aseismic deformation transients in a subduction fault model

Y Liu, JR Rice - Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2007 - Wiley Online Library
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 …
