A review on slow earthquakes in the Japan Trench

T Nishikawa, S Ide, T Nishimura - Progress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2023 - Springer
Slow earthquakes are episodic slow fault slips. They form a fundamental component of
interplate deformation processes, along with fast, regular earthquakes. Recent …

The subduction plate interface: Rock record and mechanical coupling (from long to short timescales)

P Agard, A Plunder, S Angiboust, G Bonnet, J Ruh - Lithos, 2018 - Elsevier
Short-and long-term processes at or close to the subduction plate interface (eg, mineral

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 …

What's down there? The structures, materials and environment of deep-seated slow slip and tremor

WM Behr, R Bürgmann - Philosophical Transactions of …, 2021 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Deep-seated slow slip and tremor (SST), including slow slip events, episodic tremor and
slip, and low-frequency earthquakes, occur downdip of the seismogenic zone of numerous …

Slab-derived devolatilization fluids oxidized by subducted metasedimentary rocks

JJ Ague, S Tassara, ME Holycross, JL Li, E Cottrell… - Nature …, 2022 - nature.com
Metamorphic devolatilization of subducted slabs generates aqueous fluids that ascend into
the mantle wedge, driving the partial melting that produces arc magmas. These magmas …

An explanation of episodic tremor and slow slip constrained by crack‐seal veins and viscous shear in subduction mélange

K Ujiie, H Saishu, Å Fagereng… - Geophysical …, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
Episodic tremor and slow slip (ETS) occurs in the transition zone between the locked
seismogenic zone and the deeper, stably sliding zone. Actual mechanisms of ETS are …

Geological constraints on the mechanisms of slow earthquakes

JD Kirkpatrick, Å Fagereng, DR Shelly - Nature Reviews Earth & …, 2021 - nature.com
The recognition of slow earthquakes in geodetic and seismological data has transformed the
understanding of how plate motions are accommodated at major plate boundaries. Slow …

CB Condit, VE Guevara, JR Delph… - Earth and Planetary …, 2020 - Elsevier
Non-volcanic tremor (NVT) and episodic slow slip events (SSEs) have been observed below
the seismogenic zone of relatively warm subduction zones for the past 20 years …

Fluid overpressure from chemical reactions in serpentinite within the source region of deep episodic tremor

MS Tarling, SAF Smith, JM Scott - Nature Geoscience, 2019 - nature.com
Slow fault slip includes a range of transient phenomena that occur over timescales longer
than those of standard earthquakes. Slow slip events are often closely associated with …

Transient permeability of a deep‐seated subduction interface shear zone

J Muñoz‐Montecinos, WM Behr - Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
Slow slip and tremor is observed along many subduction margins and is commonly linked to
fluid pressure variations and migration. Accurate estimates of porosity and permeability …
