From geodetic imaging of seismic and aseismic fault slip to dynamic modeling of the seismic cycle
JP Avouac - Annual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences, 2015 - annualreviews.org
Understanding the partitioning of seismic and aseismic fault slip is central to seismotectonics
as it ultimately determines the seismic potential of faults. Thanks to advances in tectonic …

Stress triggering in thrust and subduction earthquakes and stress interaction between the southern San Andreas and nearby thrust and strike‐slip faults
We argue that key features of thrust earthquake triggering, inhibition, and clustering can be
explained by Coulomb stress changes, which we illustrate by a suite of representative …
