Slow earthquakes and nonvolcanic tremor

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

Correlation between deep fluids, tremor and creep along the central San Andreas fault

M Becken, O Ritter, PA Bedrosian, U Weckmann - Nature, 2011 - nature.com
The seismicity pattern along the San Andreas fault near Parkfield and Cholame, California,
varies distinctly over a length of only fifty kilometres. Within the brittle crust, the presence of …

Rheological separation of the megathrust seismogenic zone and episodic tremor and slip

X Gao, K Wang - Nature, 2017 - nature.com
Episodic tremor and accompanying slow slip, together called ETS, is most often observed in
subduction zones of young and warm subducting slabs,,. ETS should help us to understand …

Fluids of the lower crust: deep is different

CE Manning - Annual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences, 2018 - annualreviews.org
Deep fluids are important for the evolution and properties of the lower continental and arc
crust in tectonically active settings. They comprise four components: H2O, nonpolar gases …

Triggered creep as a possible mechanism for delayed dynamic triggering of tremor and earthquakes

DR Shelly, Z Peng, DP Hill, C Aiken - Nature Geoscience, 2011 - nature.com
The passage of radiating seismic waves generates transient stresses in the Earth's crust that
can trigger slip on faults far away from the original earthquake source. The triggered fault …
