Anisotropic thermal conductivity of antigorite along slab subduction impacts seismicity of intermediate-depth earthquakes

YH Chien, E Marzotto, YC Tsao, WP Hsieh - Nature Communications, 2024 - nature.com
Double seismic zones (DSZs) are a feature of some subducting slabs, where intermediate-
depth earthquakes (~ 70–300 km) align along two separate planes. The upper seismic …
