Repeating earthquakes

N Uchida, R Bürgmann - Annual Review of Earth and Planetary …, 2019 - annualreviews.org
Repeating earthquakes, or repeaters, are identical in location and geometry but occur at

Detection of repeating earthquakes and their application in characterizing slow fault slip

N Uchida - Progress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2019 - Springer
Repeating earthquakes (repeaters) that rupture the same fault area (patch) are interpreted to
be caused by repeated accumulation and release of stress on the seismic patch in a …

The geophysics, geology and mechanics of slow fault slip

R Bürgmann - Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2018 - Elsevier
Modern geodetic and seismologic observations describe the behavior of fault slip over a
vast range of spatial and temporal scales. Slip at sub-seismogenic speeds is evident from …

Misconception of waveform similarity in the identification of repeating earthquakes

D Gao, H Kao, B Wang - Geophysical Research Letters, 2021 - Wiley Online Library

We investigate the feasibility of using the dynamic time war** (DTW) technique as an
alternative to windowed cross correlation (WCC) for an indirect measure to quantify both the …

Repeating earthquakes record fault weakening and healing in areas of megathrust postseismic slip

EJ Chaves, SY Schwartz, RE Abercrombie - Science Advances, 2020 - science.org
