Do faults preserve a record of seismic slip: A second opinion
Exhumed fault zones offer insights into deformation processes associated with earthquakes
in unparalleled spatial resolution; however it can be difficult to differentiate seismic slip from …

Generation of intermediate-depth earthquakes by self-localizing thermal runaway
Abstract Intermediate-depth (50–300 km) earthquakes commonly occur along convergent
plate margins but their causes remain unclear. In the absence of pore-fluid pressures that …

Tectonic pressure: Theoretical concepts and modelled examples
NS Mancktelow - Lithos, 2008 - Elsevier
Pressure variation due to deformation is an intrinsic property of fracture and flow in all

[PDF][PDF] The habitat of fault-generated pseudotachylyte: Presence vs. absence of friction-melt
RH Sibson, VG Toy, R Abercrombie - Geophysical Monograph …, 2006 - researchgate.net
Anticipated frictional dissipation during seismic rupture is such (10–100 MW/m2) that melting
on fault planes should be widespread provided slip is well-localized. However, despite …

Laboratory earthquakes triggered during eclogitization of lawsonite-bearing blueschist
The origin of intermediate-depth seismicity has been debated for decades. A substantial
fraction of these events occurs within the upper plane of Wadati–Benioff double seismic …

Stacking and metamorphism of continuous segments of subducted lithosphere in a high-pressure wedge: the example of Alpine Corsica (France)
Alpine Corsica consists of a stack of variably metamorphosed units of continental and Tethys-
derived rocks. It represents an excellent example of high-pressure (HP) orogenic belt, such …
